Wigan Warriors • Rumours and signings v9
Not a rumour however more a hope that we are keeping an eye on Ben Earl at Saracens. He has been on load at Bristol last year and looked like a stalwart of the England team for many years to come however it seems the currently philosophy is to go for the giants in the union backrows again.
He has expressed a desire to play rugby league and is a big fan of the game, he was even due to train with Leeds but it was cancelled due to Covid restriction.
The lad I feel could make a fantastic transition to league. He is 6'1" over 105kg and extremely dynamic a natural powerful athlete who I feel would make an excellent "middle" playing at 13 i could even see him playing in the centres. At only 24 and if more England opportunities don't materialise I would think he would be prime for an approach at the end of his current contract. in 2023. With the cap incentives to attract union players he could be a very astute pick up for a SL side with a bit of cash to spend.
