"I feel honoured to have stepped foot on the field with him and in his final seasons the opportunity to coach him.
“Wigan fans should feel privileged to have had the opportunity to watch him go to work in a cherry and white jersey.
"He is in my eyes the best overseas signing the club has ever made.
"All the best to you and the family, Tommy.”
