Yeah, exactly the same boat. Wigan will just slide Tomkins into 6, and put Roberts at FB!  |

The weather could really play a part if the expected snow fall is as heavy as Look North claims, leaving the pitch like a quagmire.
Good old fashioned Rugby League ![]()
that means diskin has to do full 80 at hooker and he's only had a limited pre-season due to surgery. I'd be tempted to put Addy at half as hes a bit more creative than Heath and put Ah van alongside him like we did in 2nd half against fax. Seemed to work quite well as a pairing. Frees up kearney to go to fullback and royston to play loose forward. Put ainscough on wing against his old club with a point to prove.

Addy and Ah Van in the halves, Christ almighty. It's like 2010 all over again.

true but wigan have benfit of 3 creative players in squad and are only potentially missing 2 if deacs doesnt play. After herbert and briggs we're struggling for someone who can create at scrum half imo. Really bad luck to have both unavailable at same time. Bit surprised we havent given southernwood a go in the circumstances tbh.

Hard to say what Mick will do.
Plenty of options. Might depend on the weather as to who he plays where. If it is going to be a mud bath, he might be better rotating the hookers so we have some zip at acting half, which means we need someone else to play half back. I think we'll see Kearney defend at fullback and play half-back in attack like he did last week.
Addy will start, he'll be needed for his kicking game at the least. Could be some merit in having Ah Van at half-back so Ainscough can play on the wing against his former side too with a point to prove.
Shame we're missing Herbert and Briggs though, not the start to the season we wanted or needed. It's going to make things difficult in the coming weeks too if Herbert is another of these "He'll be back next week" characters who appear a month later than everyone expected.

I'd go with:
Royston
Ainscough
Platt
Walker
Raynor
Ah Van
Kearney
Lynch
L'Estrange
Hargreaves
Elima
Whitehead
Addy
SUBS
Scruton
Diskin
Kopczak
Sibbit
Admittedly part of that thinking is that I'd shuffle anything to avoid playing Sykes.

I'd agree with that, with one change. think kearney and ah van are both capable of doing a job at standoff but dont think either is creative enough for scrum half. so addy to SH,kearney to Fb and royston to loose for me. Think we need to keep l'estrange and diskin together in hooking role.

I would agree with that, but by going with the above we are really going to have take any chances that come our way on Sunday. |

Maybe, but I suspect Ah Van is higher up the cover for half back pecking order so if he does and it's not Kearney and L'Estrange in the halves then you'd imagine he'd figure in the centres. |
