In an attempt to be more optimistic in 2023, another following on from the recent posts, but this one for those who we’ve signed that you didn’t expect anything from, but they turned out to be good for us.

Fozzard for me, looked like an old man held together by tape when we signed him and I thought we got a dud, turned out to be great for us and beyond.

Mark Gleeson as well, not technically a signing but he just turned into a really useful player.

Brent grose. Knew hardly anything about him when he signed and he was superb for us.

Don't die with the music in you

Joel Monaghan - thought he was just another disgraced Aussie coming over to supplement his retirement fund, ends up with a try scoring record of 1 per game!

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Chris Hicks thought he was a make weight turned out to be a fantastic winger.

Taken the liberty of adding Nat Wood in myself. I don’t think anybody expected the return we got from him.

1. Chris Hicks
2. Joel Monaghan
3. Brent Grose
4. Chris Bridge
5. Rob Smyth
6. Gregg Mackey
7. Nat Wood
8. Nick Fozzard

10. Bob Jackson

one Wigan signed from Wire - Billy McGinty

turned out to be a fantastic signing. He always looked out on his feet / would only do short spells at Wire but stepped up to the next level at Wigan (this is just my opinion as i didnt see him week in / week out at wire though)

and to add to his playing talents - Pineapple ring John :) :)

Maybe he thought this was the “hair” topic?
