Salford will see this as a chance for a rare win.


I guess the team will be largely unchanged. Don't think we picked up any injuries but also nobody is due back as far as I'm aware. 

He is under contract at Wigan and i think the club are just being respectful to Wigan not pushing the situation at the moment.That said it wouldnt surprise me to see him here next season

Agree, think we’ll likely see Eseh here next season probably on loan again initially. 

We seem to have a good relationship with Wigan, if there’s a deal to be done I’m sure we’ll get it done, if not we move on. 

I can’t help thinking our fans at the moment either go massively over the top with expectations and criticism with players like Rapana and then hugely over the top the opposite with the likes of Knight and Eseh, I’m sure the social media activity around Eseh now is making Wigan sit up and take notice of him even more.  


Wigan have nothing to lose in exercising the one year in their favour. If they do, with the new rules Hull (or anyone) could offer him a deal for 2027 before a ball is kicked in 2026. If Wigan have a cap squeeze and Eseh could get a better deal elsewhere they might just feel it’s better for him to move on and go with something more long term, maybe taking a fee from Hull. All ifs and buts, the ball is in Wigan and the players court, great if it happens but I don’t think it’s a deal breaker for the club to progress, there’s a much bigger picture. 

There seems to be a lot of social media content with Sam Eseh which makes me think that he could be here next year

We did well against Salford we didn't panic and took control second half, Zak outstanding again along with Cust, Litten's best game in a long time too, love to sign Eseh more than any other potential signing.
