Matty Bowen: Wigan Warriors 'did not get a Sam Tomkins clone' - Mid Season Feature

I do not own this video - I'm sharing the love via the wonderful BBC who featured this report this week on the Super League Show.
Wigan Warriors full-back Matty Bowen tells BBC's Super League Show that he is side-stepping comparisons to his predecessor Sam Tomkins by playing his own game.
The former Australia international has scored 11 tries in 16 appearances since moving to the United Kingdom from Australian National Rugby League side North Queensland Cowboys.
He arrived as a replacement for Tomkins, but Bowen has always insisted he is no clone of the England international.

Matty Bowen is the most electrifying football player to ever grace the sport

[@jackkain3970]

Tomkins 😂 got nothing on Bowen. No coach in the NRL would pick Tomkins over Bowen in there Prime

[@kingjamez5934]

Bowen was 10 times the player Tomkins will ever be, Bowen was one of the best fullbacks in the NRL......Tomkins did nothing whilst he was here 😂

[@drum81ful]

when Bowen was in his prime being selected in Origin, he was much better than Tomkins.

[@lukesimmons5121]

Matty Bowen would run rings around Sam what’s his name
