Wigan Warriors head coach Matt Peet has delivered a surprising and bold verdict on rising star Jack Farrimond following the teenager’s standout showing over the weekend. The 18-year-old delivered a composed and commanding performance that caught the attention of coaches and supporters alike.
Farrimond, playing under the club’s dual-registration arrangement, displayed remarkable poise, creativity, and work ethic traits rarely seen in players his age. His efforts played a crucial role in a dominant team performance, prompting Peet to issue an eye-opening statement about the youngster’s future.
“He was brilliant,” Peet said. “Jack showed he can lead, stay composed under pressure, and bring real quality. He’s no longer waiting for a chance he’s demanding one.”
Peet hinted that Farrimond may be in line for regular Super League appearances much sooner than expected. “We’re absolutely considering him for more significant roles,” he said. “He’s proven he’s ready.”
Other dual-reg players also stood out, but it was Farrimond who truly stole the spotlight. His display may have accelerated his path to a permanent first-team spot.
With a busy fixture list ahead, Peet’s unexpected praise suggests fans may see more of Farrimond very soon. One thing is clear: Wigan’s future looks bright and Jack Farrimond may be its brightest spark.
