I'm loving your idea about the Thursday - what a brilliant idea although if things went pear shaped and Sam did sign for Wire we could see the biggest "Wigan walk" in living memory

I made Sam Tomkins come back as I made the Bowen thread that Wane and S Tomkins read

Thank goodness that you and others post such wise council on this board. I'm told it is the main source of all information on how to run a professional Rugby League club. They would be clueless without this resource...

Not a Wigan fan so see this from a neutral point but anyone with half an inclin about rugby league who watches NRL can see how much the warriors are missing him and need him in their side

I say the opposite, the warriors struggle without him, has a very good strike rate too.

He's been far from flawless, but few positions are under the microscope as much as full-back. And certainly the Warriors are missing him, badly. Especially as Shaun Johnson seems rather off his game (and Townsend isn't up to much anyway).

As noted before, Sam's record in tries scored and assists bears comparison with anyone in the NRL.
