Yes, he was left to defend all that wing on his own, often with three pie eaters running at him. But I'm sure that's Meli's fault too, because his team-mates don't want to stand within ten yeards of him in defence.  |

Has any team scored 100 in a Super League game yet?
No Leon? No wins.

I think it will be Ashurst and Wheeler to miss out. Lomax and Eastmond to play 6 and 7. I'd have been more concerned if it had been a forward out injured. If our forwards can get on a roll against the likes of Lima an unknown quantity for the Saints forwards a half-back pairing of Lomax and Eastmond should be able to cope well enough. I am quite happy with wing / centre partnerships of gardner and Shenton and Meli and Foster or even Meli and Wheeler. Let's not have any doomongers already please before we have even kicked off.

To be fair, Wigan is the last team I'd play Meli against at centre.
He can do a job there against most, but his decision making is poor and Wigan swamp the edges with numbers and force you to make decisions. Wire threatened to show him up too before they choked (again).
Wheeler is our left centre for 2011, let's start and finish with him there; he's a cracking player.

| What are the chances of Foster playing? He's a great fantasy league pick - if he plays! Plus he's better than Gardner!  |

Am I right in thinking Gleeson hasn't played in any of the warm up games for Wigan. If so then he is going to be a bit rusty going into the match.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

That's correct he hasn't played at all since the GF, and neither has Hansen. |

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg |

| Quote: Agent Mulder "I think it will be Ashurst and Wheeler to miss out. '"
I don't know about Ashurst but Wheeler should play at centre. Meli should try his best to defend against the undoubted onslaught. However, I expect the usual and that would have been the case regardless of Leon. We don't want to screw the whole team for the absence of one player. We had enough of that last season. I'm hoping the only change will be Lomax for Pryce. My concern is what happens if Kyle can't make it through the full match. There is no-one left to cover the halves. |
