The squad in full is: Addy, Ainscough, Ah Van, Diskin, Elima, Hargreaves, Kearney, Kopczak, L'Estrange, Lynch, Olbison, Platt, Raynor, Royston, Scruton, Sibbit, Sykes, Walker, Whitehead.

no briggs or herbert. dont think we have a realistic chance of a result now. kearney and l'estrange in halves royston FB and addy LF seems like best option from available player or maybe swap royston and kearney round.

Briggs out for four weeks, Herbert not recovered. Mmm. Sunday not looking promising now at all.

With the forcast for tonight the game might not be on. news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/2119?area=BD5

Briggs is a big blow. Herbert been out at same time is also bad. Think it could be a walkover for wigan

Why dont you all stop sulking and try get behind the lads in said of saying we have already lost?!!

And there goes all my confidence.

Stuart Fielden has returned to the Warriors 19-man squad for Sunday's game against his former club, Bradford Bulls.

Fielden replaces fellow Prop Jeff Lima who serves the first of a two match ban, whilst Josh Charnley keeps his place in favour of Stefan Marsh; Amos Roberts returns after missing last weeks game through the birth of his baby.

Wigan 19 Man Squad for Bradford game:

Sam Tomkins, Darrell Goulding, Martin Gleeson, George Carmont, Paul Deacon, Thomas Leuluai, Stuart Fielden, Michael McIlorum, Andy Coley, Harrison Hansen, Joel Tomkins, Sean O'Loughlin, Paul Prescott, Ryan Hoffman, Amos Roberts, Lee Mossop, Liam Farrell, Chris Tuson, Josh Charnley.

Seems like there is still some of the old system in there from last season feeding us with hope of players maybe being fit then telling us they are out for a few weeks ie. Jamie Langley last year we kept getting told he wasn't far away from fitness.......2 months later still wasn't playing! How can you go from being 50/50 to 4 weeks out? Could be a walk in the park now as we have no organiser or play maker!!!

thinking about it other option we could use is addy at scrum half, kearney FB, royston loose forward and bring ah van into standoff with ainscough on wing. Could work and keeps our 2 hooker rotation available as we shouldnt forget diskin is only just back from surgery so bit much to expect him to play 80mins so soon. Certainly not all doom and gloom but we're going to have to dig deep to get any points from sunday.

We didnt even get a hint that Briggs may miss 4 to 6 weeks did we. Bit of a shocker that.

Why you putting other players down?
are they not capable of doing the job?

Says it all about bradford fans to be honest

Oh wait!! the attendance will only be 8 thousand now because them 2 are not back

Terrance singer while i admire you confidence you cant blame some fans for feeling a bit angry at the situation. Briggs was said to be just lacking fitness and then next minute hes out for 4-6 weeks??? The fans feel like they have been kept in the dark about it. However we have to look on now and see how gud the depth of the team is. Lets get behind the lads on sunday and not be all negative. Whats thoughts on team lads? Starting 13?

The fans have DEFINITELY been kept in the dark with Briggs, and I don't like it. However, the club have discretion to release what they want, but even on Wednesday it was hinted that Briggs was only a doubt.
