Not got a clue, only know about Jarrod, reckon most players and most clubs are discussing contract extension or new contract before the current one ends! Jarrod was in Aus until mid Oct and nothing had been discussed until then.

As said his family moved back north in the summer.

It matters not to us, but have to say am pleased for Jarrod thathe has got a full time contract with a club, better than ending up at fax or the bulls on a part time deal

Wigan faithful don't seem too happy about the signing

The situation with Jarrod is not the same as Acker's, Akers was released half way through his contract, Jarrod's contract with the club had finished. He was open with the fans stating the reasons why he did not resign which was because his family is residing permanently in the North.

It amases me the number of fans who slate players who move to other clubs, a player of Jarrod,s quality moving to another club is usually because they are offered more money which is the same as anybody moving jobs to better them selves and earn more money.

Is he good enough for Wigan?

Who cares if he is good enough for Wigan, lam thinks he is that's all that matters.

Good on him getting a 2 year deal out of em

I think that the signing of Jarrod. Says to me a lot about Wigan.

No it wasn't he had signed a new deal the day before the shelved announcement. Thankfully the club had the good grace to rip it up when he got the text telling him to choose London or his family.

David Hughes gets a lot of stick on here but if this is the case, he and the management ought to be commended as they could have easily asked for a fee for Sammut.

Whilst I am aware of the strain distances can put o relationships, if he had signed with London then a fee was due, no matter if it were a token fee or not. He would have discussed his re-signing with London with his family before hand and had just returned from a lengthy break in Aussie, so the idea that a text "outtaa leftfield" demanding he come home or lose his family is a tad "OTT".......more like Wigan saw an opportunity to pick up a FREE bench warmer that they can farm out on Duel Reg until needed......

....and for a supposedly hard nosed businessman, Hughes does make some insanely soft decisions

Agree CMG

The wigan offer was not on the table before he made the decision to go back up north.

Contrary to other suggestions, my info was that he had come to the end of his contract with us in Oct and had not signed anything else!
