Whoa there! I wasn't suggesting for a minute that Sibbit should play centre. He's a 2nd row now. Only stating that he has played centre in Superleague and briefly in the NRL. When and against which opposition did Royston play centre? I don't know? I thought his best position was fullback

I would go with Sykes. Not ideal but he used to be ok until he got dragged all around the back line. Bullseyes team is close to the ones is pick but no way would I drop Koppy.

1. Royston
2. Ainscough
3. Sykes
4. Platt
5. Ah Van
6. Kearney
7. Herbert
8. Hargreaves
9. Diskin
10. Lynch
11. Olbison
12. Whitehead
13. Elima
14. O'Brien
15. Kopczak
16. Scruton
17. Addy


Sykes isn't bad in Centres but Platt has to pair with Ah Van because if Sykes and Ah Van are together, well look at last week

Addy as cover for halfs or Loose, O'Brien as hooker number 2.

Ainscough hasnt really put a foot wrong for us in defence. He has been one of our better players so far this year.

Ainscough hasn't put a foot wrong in defence so you can't really say that.

That was what I was expecting having spoken to some Wigan fans about him but he's been good so far.

I've seen nothing wrong with Ainscoughs defense so far!

Just watched the Boots n All highlights of the Giants game and Ah Van was ripped wide open a fair few times, also was done for Wakey's first try 2 weeks ago.

has been better than expected I'll freely admit. but thats alongside a good defender in platt who takes some of pressure of him. Wouldnt like to see him alongside sykes who gets sucked in field very easily.

I don't think the answer to sorting our weak side is to break up a partnership that has looked impressive on the right.

Very true, I would think we would see Ah Van on the wing with Sykes inside him this week

thats what I'm expecting unless briggs is ready to comeback, allowing us to move kearney and royston. Could also try addy alongside herbert for same effect but im not too keen on that option. would prefer addy to get a go at loose.

Yeah, might be a week early for Briggs IMO. If Langley isn't fit then yeah I'd like to see Addy get a run at 13. If not on the bench as the interchange hooker. Looked good there against Wakey, but didn't see O'Brien against the Giants

If Langley is fit, I'd drop Whitehead down to the bench.

He's been looking knackered lately, too many mistakes. A week on the bench would do him good, I feel

Change the record guys!! why is every thread on here turn into a slating of Sykes! he may have a a few defensive issues but does it really warrant all the cr*p you guys give him. He has'nt played in position for the best part of a year, give him a break....Platt, Sheriffe, Worrincey springs to mind

Totally agree!!

Sykes seems to be the scape goat for the beginning of the season! (even though he's not played in many games). It does take me back to last year with Worrincey, Worrincey brought the kicking tee on all game and still got the blame.

Sykes has been asked to cover a number of positions, make no wonder he's not settled into the 2011 season yet. As for his defence he's not that bad, he always goes low for the legs.

The team didn't deliver last week!! simple!..Lynch needs to get the team fired up on the field and show the lads some leadership!

Easy on the players forum!!

Come On You BuLLs!
