French, who was late returning to the UK from Australia made his return on the wing in the 22-12 victory against Castleford on Thursday night.

He bagged a try in each half and also showed other quality touches in both attach and defence.

And French said: “It has been five months since my last game so it was a shock to the system but it was good to get through it.

“I’m happy to fill in wherever as long as we get the win.

“I’m probably a seven out of 10 at the moment but hopefully come the end of the year I will be up around that 10 mark.”

He has no problems playing on the wing given Zak Hardaker’s early season form at full-back.

He told WiganTV: “Zak has been killing it. He’s been our best player every week and he really deserves it.”

Wigan are at home to Hull FC this Thursday in a Sky-televised Super League game.
