See Simmons only used 16 players last night-again.He has got to pick 17 players next week who can all play rather than carry someone on the bench

Well at least Kyle can now pack his bags and be off.

Well, if Lima ruined Lomax's leg, you might be glad Wheeler wasn't played because we may well need another halfback next week.
I don't want Pryce anywhere near our team. The LAST thing we want is to be completely undermined by a stomach bug. It's 48 hours post puking before a person is no longer contagious. He should stay in Bradford and watch the GF from the stands.
Our young guys should have the chance on Saturday. With the young guy who was ripping Wigan apart on Good Friday until a cynical play from Hoffman ruined his season, sitting on the bench in case he is needed. |

Given that Simmons has battled through one of the worst injury crises in living memory steering a team full of kids to the Grand Final from outside the top two (not to mention losing his prized half to Union and his star stand-off to a season-long injury) perhaps it might be wise to - [iat least consider the possibility[/i that he knows what he's doing and his tactics are sound.

I've just been watching that on the replay and it's obvious Lima was applying pressure to the joint after the tackle was complete. It was disgusting but typical of the current Wigan team and that dirty player.
He looked like he ran it off though and I'm sure with some treatment he'll be fine |

The crypto-Wigoon Saint From Prestwich just doesn't get it. |

I guess that's why he'll be leading his side out at the grand final instead of writing about it on a message board. |

Out of curiosity, who would be played on the bench in the back spot? Do we really need to be rotating big minute forwards for the sake of it in order to replace them with an inferior one?
I can't understand what the fuss is about.

Simmons must be the only coach who consistently uses 16 men.Come the big game it might back fire on him. |
