What a time to be alive!! We all know contracts aren't always worth a great deal but this is fabulous news and helps us keep him for as long as is possible.
Nsemba is a fantastic talent and is a great retention for both Wigan and SL Although tbh the whole RL world is at his feet and if the NRL clubs come calling (which they will) then he has a big lifestyle choice to make. I've loved watching him this season and it's scary just how good that he could eventually be?
It goes without saying that this is a massive signing, moreso if it comes without NRL clauses. He has the potential to be the best in the world and it's easy to forget that he's barely left his teens. I didn't expect this at all as, like most people I think, I just assumed that an NRL move would come sooner rather than later.
This and Zach wow just wow. Great piece of business by all concerned. Absolutely love being a Wigan fan at the min (reminds me of the late 80s and 90s)
That's a great bit of business. How big is this salary cap?
We've not yet seen who's leaving other than Hampshire. Rumours are both Isa and Cooper are to retire (along with Byrne potentially leaving). More than enough cap space there to give Nsemba & Eckersley improved extensions.
No suggestion as yet if we are signing anyone, do we really need to? Potentially the first season I can remember where we might not which is great planning by the club.
