The Catalans signing of PNG captain and superstar David Mead on a three year contract will give a big boost to Super League's television viewership and Catalans attendances. Mead said he was interested in immersion in the magnificent French culture. Both he and fellow PNG'er Garry Lo (Castleford) will carve up the SL competition.

As long as they stay injury free

Wigans recruitment has been diabolical so far for a team that wants to challenge for silverware. I mean they haven't exactly improved the starting 17 that got beat 36-0 in their last game ave they?

Sargison started OK at the titans but then went completely to pieces. Just like Burgess, Eden and Hardaker before him he was atrocious in the collision - falling off tackles and generally looking like a junior playing open age for the first time. We need to get more outside backs coming through SL that aren't afraid of the physical side of the game.

Yeah that’s how it works. We base everything on one game we played with our season over.

Were you expecting us to bin the full 17 off?

We’ve signed a couple of squad players and get back Escare, Burgess, Flower and O’Loughlin who didn’t play in that game. Fingers crossed we’ll also have Manfredi back after nearly two years out come April/May. It’ll clearly take him some time to get up and running but that’s a new signing in itself.

And you’ve done us a disservice, we were only diabolical enough to get beat 32-0

To be fair. A fully fit Wigan squad as it stands is better than 80% of the teams in super league so I wouldnt worry about their recruitment
