Perry said in Sponsors lounge on Friday that he could have played but they were just being cautious with another week given last season's problems.

With all due respect to Wakefield I think that was the right decision.

Both Perry and Wheeler will be available for this week.

How is tp doing?

Still a few weeks yet. Can't really put a date on it as it all depends on his personal recovery.

Did he end up having an op?

From twittor:

'[i@Saints1890: Wheeler, Perry, Wilkin, Magennis all in with a shout this weekend..[/i'

So you guy's are missing Puletua but no one else?

We're missing Richards but other than that should be at full strength. Prescott hurt is back in training and wasn't risked against Ull KR, but should hopefully be back this week.

It should be a significantly stronger Wigan pack that takes to the field this week compared to when the sides last met.

No Gardner either

What's he suffering from?

Lower leg sustained at Cas easter monday, but he's back in training since last week.
