Don't let Rogues hear that

Excellent starting frontrow, but outside of that it is in my opinion a pretty skinny squad where the packs concerned.

As for this "best pack in the league" come on, yes it's probably the best frontrow, but backrow wise it's pretty poor. Nothing but grafters, no flair no attack only Puletua offers something different.

Just for comparisons sake Wigan will be going with something like:

Fielden, Leuluai, Coley
Hoffman, Tomkins
O'Loughlin

Lima
Mossop
Prescott
O'Carrol
Hansen
Farrel
Tuson
Davies
Hock

Plenty of depth in the squad above.

Well, I guess we'll see next year


What's the deal with you and Hock? Is he definately playing for you next year?

Wilkin offers no attack from the back row? He has more busts and clean breaks and only one less try than SOL despite having played 8 fewer games. Their assists per game are pretty similar too.

We'll have the best front row, one of the best back rows and an excellent bench - sounds like the makings of the best pack in SL to me.

I believe so. From those who know him personally he's supposedly got 5 year deal waiting for him as soon as his bans up. Any other rumors flying about are nonsense.

Should be some cracking games between us and you next year. They've been pretty good this year to be fair.

I must say, and all Wigan fan's will agree on this, it's nice to be back.

Well it's purely subjective, and I disagree. Best frontrow in the league I agree with. One of the best backrows? I'd say the the third best. But that's not to hard to do when realistically there's only 4 teams in the comp capable of winning anything.

Best bench? You used to have, and that's what made Saints the best side in the comp for many years. You'd bring players on from the bench who wouldn't let in the intensity drop. But that's now not the case anymore.

You've got a good pack. But is is better than everyone else's? No!

Is better in some respects than other sides packs? Yes!

In your opinion.

I wouldn't swap our pack for anybody else's, that's for sure.

Of course in my opinion. Everyone on here is voicing their own opinion's, some louder than others.



But in the end what I, you or anyone else thinks doesn't really matter. We'll find out soon enough who has the best pack in the comp.

I'm not the one using exclamation marks after my opinions





Very true.

We certainly will have a pack to be reckoned with. It'll be interesting when it goes head on with Warrington's. One thing about having our strongest front row since 2006 is that our lighter back rowers will have a bit more room to play a bit - Wilkin and Flannery (if he stays) should thrive. Add to that the destructive defence of Soliola and I think it's fair to say we're in with a very serious shout next year.

I think it's fair to say that this year too
