| Wrench has got something that many haven't got & you can't learn ... pace. So worth working on.
I bet he will be going through all sorts of decision making practices to work on his defence.
Reality is however that if he did start losing us games he'd get picked out as a defensive weakness by other teams & he wouldn't be kept in the team for long. The odd mistake would be tolerated but only so much. I think all clubs would be the same. Wigan will have left out lots of youngsters over the years. Wrench is not Harry Smith different players different skills.

As mentioned earlier, we could swap sides for King and Wrench. That would give teams less reason to specifically target one side. It's not just Wrench's pace, it's his footwork and passing. Not many centres who can create tries these days, and certainly no other ones at this club.

Absolutely
There is no substitute for size and pace.
Pack size and backs pace.

That doesn't fix anything though it just moves the problem from one side to another and creates more problems as now king and wrench have to form a defensive partnership with their new defenders, AND a new attacking partnership as well

Ashton may see more (some) ball outside Wrench.

I suspect Ashton is going to have to generate quite a few of his own tries this year but I also think Fitzgibbon will prove quite helpful for him in that respect.

| Hull KR pooping the bed here! Good old Barry McDermott just used a new word on me, "tempetuous", guess a mix between impetuous and tempestuous! Ahh got to love the RL brain's trust.

| Dean Cross could have cost Salford this. Stupid to hold back Burgess. Gives the impetus to KR

Clearly not in Burgess’s plans though.

| Bullock would probably be in my squad although I thought our interchange props were pretty good on Friday. Russell wouldn’t make my squad.
