Really annoys me when people assume we are too big a club to sign certain players!
When Sneyd left Salford and became available or when Gale left Bradford no doubt the same was said of both these and both now perform extremely well at their respective clubs.
On the face of it, there is no risk involved with taking a chance on a player that has excelled since having his chance and shown (backed up with his statistics) he is up there amongst the best in Super League this season in a stuttering Catalans side.
For goodness sake, in the last few years we (Wigan) have taken chances on Matty Smith from Salford who had done the rounds with Crusaders & Widnes previously, Blake Green from Hull KR and Michael Dobson also from Catalans - those all worked out fairly well.
Josh Woods is very capable, but as our starting 7 next year I would have reservations.
