AS desperate as Bevan French is to help Wigan become champions, he rarely thinks about the howler that cost them the 2020 Super League title.
The dazzling Aussie superstar hopes to reach Old Trafford for the first time when League Leaders Warriors host Hull KR in Saturday's semi-final.
He did play in the Grand Final against St Helens three years ago but that was behind closed doors in Hull during lockdown - and saw the most famous finish in the history of the showpiece.
Few will forget full-back French's split-second pause - after Tommy Makinson's drop goal attempt hit a post - which allowed Jack Welsby to sneak up after the final hooter and dramatically touch down for the winning try.
Wigan, who have not won a Grand Final since 2018, could have a chance to finally right those wrongs this year.
