As i said in another thread, I'd start Gaskell at #6 and put Speakman on the bench to rotate with Lance at 9.
I'm inclined to agree though, that brown will move turner to 6 and bring Percival into the centres.

I didn't say you did, my point was there are always pathetic comments RE Simmons/Rush that are pointless and OT, drop it already! Some come on here to chat rugby not read about your Simmons/Gaskell/Foster/hating rush/the whole club is against the kids/whoever else obsessions on every single thread

Agreed.

Well stop making such comments then!

My comment was about Brown. You need to learn how to read for comprehension.

To be fair, we could do with a period without him to lace a couple more strings in our bow.
Also, with the way the likes of Walker, Walmsley and Percival have performed, I'd really like to see dom speakman. He's a half converted to a hooker, so should have some smarts and good service in him. Given that he's been on the england tour, he must be alright?

I agree. If we look over the Lump and see how Wigan fare each time Samkins is out injured we could do with learning the lesson now that we need to work out a Plan B, and at least this absence has happened at a time of the season when we can put things right.

I think that is starting to happen with Lomax. We no longer rely on Robes to create opportunities.

Your comment referred to what happened last season, didnt it? Yes. Get over last season amongst other things!

I would suggest given the comments from Brown the team will look something like this.

Lomax
Ade
Turner
Percival
Meli
Lance
Wilkin
Laffranchi
Flanagan
Warmsley
Sia
Manu
Wellens

bench
TP
LMS
Jones
Clough

Has there been any update, only the last i heard was that he was having a scan on Tuesday (Yesterday) so is it still 10 weeks? if so will need to shift him from my fantasy team.
