Wigan TV down? : Sun Jan 19, 2025 3:26 pm  

Been trying to watch the friendly on 5 different devices so far, not loading on any

There was an issue, reported by Wigan, mine has come back to life just in time for half time!!!

Shame to miss the first half but Harvie Hill has looked very good - far more explosive running the ball in.

Mine was fine. Watched the full 80 without an issue. Decent game for a friendly. Farrimond is a special talent

Mine came on at half time too, very frustrating.

From what I saw Hill put his hand up for a place in the prop rotation and I think Eseh and Chan went well too.

Harvie Hill played extremely well today, impressed also with Dupree who looks like he's shed a pound or two.

We looked big, fit and sharp. Hill and Eckersley are both outstanding and I expect the former to be making the starting 17 for the first game. Our forwards looked hungry and aggressive. Overall, I think everyone played well. It all bodes well for the new season.

Mine came on at half tine.
Hill was superb as a ball playing forward, I was told that he had played some of his junior rugby as a #6, he was my standout player today Just to add Farrimond is a generational talent, but don't understand why he didn't take the goal kicks?

I totally agree with all the points you have made. Hill's physique is impressive.

I missed the majority of game did see the beauty of a try which was Dupree’s running through the middle to collect the kick to go in. How did Eseh do? Hopefully hill will take Byrnes spot when he goes not a bad replacement
