Quote: Roy Haggerty "Good to see the long tradition continues of choosing Wigan players even if there are better players available in their positions. Williams? Bateman? Farrell? O'Loughlin? Smith?
I've no beef with the inclusion of Burgess - clearly one of the better wingers in the competition. But it's a bit irritating that playing for Wigan appears to grant you default inclusion. I can't believe Joel Tomkins was even vaguely considered!
No complaints about just Roby from Saints. Walmsley would have been a shoe-in, but injured.'"
You watched Bateman this year? He's been sensational.
Williams? He's been terrific.
Farrell? He's back on top form and was the best forward on the field last night.
O'Loughlin? He's captain and therefore is bound to be picked. He's playing well but can improve.
Smith? He shouldn't be in our team so I'm with you.
