Leave the team as it is..Trust the boys who beat the top team and not try and shoehorn Ryan Atkins in.

Think it will be Thaler who gets this gig as Hicks did the CC Final this year and he is due one. Open invitation for Wigan to carry on with the "Dark Arts".

I think we should give away a few early penalties by mimicking and exaggerating the Wigan techniques such that the referee hopefully will find it hard to ignore when they start using them.

I thought Childs might get it.

He got the final last year. Doesn't seem to have been around many of the big games this year, apart from a VR perspective

Really don't understand this obsession Wire fans have with constantly wanting to shoehorn Atkins into the side. No, no, no and no. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. We've played and looked our best this year when he's been sat in the stands. He wastes more chances than he finishes and he's a right scav on the ball. More interested in his own personal glory and pulling stupid faces when he scores than doing the best thing for the team.

We'd have won the GF in 2016 if he passed the ball instead of trying to go it alone.

Why on gods green earth would you even think about, suggest or consider dropping an actual forward from the team at to accommodate a hit and miss Centre into the second row? In the Grand final, when he's never played there in his life. The mind boggles.

Because his back is knackered from that game at Widnes where Houston ran into him twice. The rumor is, I believe, that he has taken legal action against the incident.

I am sure you a referring to Phil Bentham!!!

Ahhhhh Bentham... I thought it was Thaler! never mind

I think most of the ideas where based on the need for having cover for the outside backs in case of an early injury. Am I right in thinking that you don't rate Atkins then?

I think its mainly Smiffy and W71... everybody else has got it.

No I don't. Cover in the outside backs would come just as easy having Patton on the bench. If worst came to worst, and we needed a centre huges would have to fill in. Clark would go to 13 (like he has done quite alot this year, and Patton would jump in at hooker with the loose filling second row.

Atkins on the bench would be a complete waste of time. to bring him on at centre would disrupt the team by un-necissarily moving players about. bringing him on at 2nd row would disrupt the team because... HE. HAS. NEVER. PLAYED. THERE.
