Adam keighran is looking forward to the challenge wigan warriors face in saturday’s betfred super league clash against huddersfield giants.

The Warriors travel to the John Smith’s Stadium to face the Giants for a second time this season following a 30-16 win on home soil in Round 3.

Looking ahead to the Round 11 meeting in West Yorkshire, Keighran said: “Huddersfield are a good side with quality players across the park who like to move the ball as well as playing direct. It will be a big challenge for us to keep the momentum going from the Catalans win but it’s one that we are looking forward.”

Reflecting on Wigan’s victory over Catalans Dragons last time out, Keighran added: “We started a little slow in the first half due to discipline and errors but in the second half we really turned it around. In the end it was a good way to bounce back from the Hull KR loss.”

On settling into the side, Keighran said: “Now that I’ve got my bearings on how quick Bevan [French] and Jai [Field] actually are I’m understanding more where I need to put myself. I think we’ve made big improvements since playing Huddersfield in Round 3 and now we are looking forward to getting out there and seeing how far we have come.”

Speaking on his time at the Warriors so far, the centre said: “I’m loving my time here. I was welcomed in pretty quickly but now it’s even more special that I’m feeling more part of the group. A lot of things in life both on and off the field are going well so I cannot complain.”

Full match previews with Matt Peet and Adam Keighran are available to watch on Wigan TV HERE.
