I suspect the team for Wigan will remain largely unchanged.

Blooding some youngsters away to Wigan could easily do more harm than good. Without being disrespectful to Cru/Wakey, our last two games of the season will be less intense and a better opportunity for a few juniors to get some game time.

Wigan will have a field day, a perfect warm up for Wembley.

I would like to see Ah Van dropped for this one. He's ok going forward but doesn't get going and his lack of effort on Welham when he was strolling in for a try in the second half was very poor.

I will be in warmth of Mallorca for this one.. whether I seek out a bar willing to show it might well depend on how many beers I have that evening! I expect it will be a beating.. by how many will likely depend on whether they rest any players for the CC.

It could be as one-sided as the cricket series between England & India

I won't be making this one and will be unable to watch on Sky due to a birthday celebration. I'm hoping we show more pride and determination then we did when we went to Wire. The playoffs are gone, we're playing to restore a bit of pride before the end of the season.

It would be nice, given the season is done with, if Mick Potter put an experimental side out against Wigan. Give some fringe players a run out so they've a chance of catching the eye and staking a claim for the 2012 team

Who is he?

Wigan may rest Carmont, he came off early v Salford and was replaced by Goulding. Lima and Deacon were rested for that game with Hock and Goulding coming in. Hock played prop.
In the South Stand bar afterwards it was said that Prescott would be back v Bradford to replace Cross. I would imagine Lima will return.

Poss Wigan squad.
S Tomkins,
Charnley, J Tomkins, Goulding, Richards,
Finch, Deacon,
Coley, Leuluai, Mossop,
Hoffman, Hansen,
O'Loughlin.
Prescott, Lima, Mossop, Hock/Farrell.

Wigan do seem to be opening the North Stand for most games now.

Chev won't be playing, it's one week too soon for him.

Totally agree. Best to blood the youngsters vs Crusaders and Wakey. Not sure blooding players against (arguebly) the best team in Super League would be a great idea! Think this week should be about sticking with a similiar team, although I'd be tempted to drop Herbert. Bring Roytson in at FB, and Kearney up to stand off ? Although with current injuries and Whitehead banned that may be difficult. Hoping for a better performance, but that might be asking a little too much. Can Potter motivate the troops? doubt it.

I'm trying to be positive about this weeks fixture but I can't see us getting anything from this game. During the most vital 40 minutes of our season (second half against KR at home) we looked pathetic in all areas of the game and were an embarrassment. If we play anything like we did against KR we'll be dead and buried before half time.

Like I said earlier, we're playing for pride.
