It's on the Wigan board he's signed for this season and two seasons after 2019.

Exciting player with pace to burn but the big question is where will he play? Potentially on the right wing this year? Not sure about 2020.

Re: Bevan French : Sat Jul 27, 2019 11:30 am  

Looking forward to watching him play

Re: Bevan French : Sat Jul 27, 2019 11:30 am  

Really interested to see where he fits in. Great signing though, like the idea of getting a new face in before the end of the season, gives everyone a kick!

Re: Bevan French : Sat Jul 27, 2019 11:31 am  

Excited to see the lad go! Just hope people give him time - we're almost at the business end of the season and it's going to take him a while to get up to speed and settled in etc.

Still not sure if we had a greater need at prop for this season tho?

Re: Bevan French : Sat Jul 27, 2019 11:34 am  

Interesting to see where he will play, but still a great signing and adds more pace to an already lightening back line

Re: Bevan French : Sat Jul 27, 2019 11:38 am  

That'll do me just fine. However our prop situation is looking dire, Clubb and Flower left, with Hamlin and Tautai gone and now Bullock out for the season, it gives the young lads plenty of game time and they haven't key us down yet. That aside, French coming in gives us options in attack and it's a kick up the backside for all our backs now if they want to keep their place.

Happy with this one! For this year can just cover full back, wings, centres and halves should injuries/ drop of form occur.

For next year as Hastings is such a controlling half back.

I’d play him at 6 and let him run the ball.
