Having read that, I never thought I'd see the day, but I'm agreeing with Maurice Lindsay, the Wigan chairman. Chris Ashton had an amazing career ahead of him in League, and to be honest, he's not going to be that good at union, he's the wrong build and hooker in union is one of the most specialised positions in any sport going. Also, from the article, it looks like he's going for the money, not for love of the sport, which also is going to get him nowhere.
