Good news that Ashton is staying, and that would be even better staying fit for an extended period of time.

Great news, speed to burn and looks like he’s improving his rugby “smarts” every time I see him play. Ace.

KFP " Its ok, don't panic, I have found some cap space to re-sign him................ I have got rid of one of our old props to Hudds !"

Just had a look at his hat trick try, when Mulhern picked the ball up and set off Ashton started his run from Winnick Rd

Very pleased he's signed up for another 3 years. Exciting player to watch...the truly quick ones always are!

A bit left field but is there a bit of the Shaun Edwards in his ability to be in the right place to finish off moves?

Shaun Edwards just supported up the middle in all conquering fully professional Wigan team. To be fair there was a little bit more to his game like starting a brawl and quietly sneaking off to let the rest get on with it. He was a niggling little so and so.

Didn’t sneak off quickly enough in the CC final.
