Exciting young winger who has established himself as a regular in the Tigers ranks after graduating through the clubs Development scheme.

Fast and elusive, Waine first took his chance with the senior team towards the end of Super League V and has continued to improve year on year, jointly topping the Tigers try scoring chart in 2003.

Waine first won honours with England 'A' against the 2002 touring Kiwis, went on tour himself to Tonga and Fiji with England and was again in the England 'A' team for the 2003 European Nations competition.

Waine is a product of junior rugby in Bradford and is the cousin of the Bulls Leon.

Info from Wigan Fans site

Danny Sculthorpe, younger brother of Saints Paul, signed from Rochdale Hornets by Wigan at the start of the 2002 season.

His signing was a gamble as he had been dumped by Warrington and Leeds earlier in his career due to persistent injuries. Since moving to Wigan he has again suffered through injuries.

His Wigan career got off to the worst possible start. In  January 2002, before he had pulled on a Wigan shirt, he sustained a freak injury which ruled him out of action for eight months. 

He was loaned back out to his old NFP side Rochdale Hornets in mid August 2002 to help boost his fitness and finally made his Warriors debut in a 48-8 victory against St Helens on 8th September 2002.

In 2003 he suffered with injury both mid season and then at the back end of the season but did make 20 Super League appearances. 2004 saw him miss 16 of 35 matches.

H is an excellent prop forward with a superb offload that can open up any defence.

4. Luke Dyer

A strong all round player, Dyer came through the junior ranks at Penrith and aside from a spell with the Melbourne Storm has spent his senior career with the Panthers.
Luke, who has played rep football in Australia for the NSW Residents side, was a member of the Panthers 25 man senior squad for 2005.
As a British passport holder Luke, who has signed a two-year deal, is a non-quota player.

Tigers CEO Richard Wright said: “Luke is a big strong centre who has found his path blocked at Penrith by some stiff competition and he is very keen to come over here and make his mark in Super League. He can play in a number of positions although he is mainly a centre, which is where we plan to use him
