Farrell, who made his Wigan debut against Wakefield in 2010, is showing no signs of easing down towards the end of his career and insists he is continuing to evolve as a player in a continually evolving squad that successfully integrated the likes of academy graduates Jack Farrimond and Zack Eckersley last year.
Six Grand Final wins culminating in an historic 2024 clean sweep have not diminished the hunger of Wigan captain Liam Farrell to lead his all-conquering side to new heights when the new Betfred Super League season kicks off on Thursday night.
“I think if you ever get to the point where you think you can’t learn any more, you start going downhill, so I’m still looking to learn and improve and get better,” Farrell added.
“It’s the first year where I’ve been a part of a team where we’ve not actually brought too many players in, because we’ve got the bulk of the squad who are fit and healthy and we want to see how far we can get,” Farrell added.
“It’s hard to go against the fact that we won four trophies last season and for that reason I’d probably say that this is the best side I’ve been involved with,” Farrell told the PA news agency.
