If he's fit he should play, keep it pretty simple, just try and get through some strong carries and stiffen up that middle unit defensively.

I'd like to see a raft of changes, but I don't see it happening, other than the change for Mata'utia.

Ratchford
Wrench
Currie
King
Ashton
Williams
Widdop
Cooper
Clark
Philbin
Longstaff
Holmes
Magoulias

Walker
Mulhern
Bullock
Amor

I'd love to see Currie and King dropped but it won't happen.

I’d love to see Currie behind a dominant front row, he is devastating when he has a half break, he just can’t get the opportunity, the team is so often on the back foot or behind the sticks.

I'm finding it hard to care, I don't see us winning at all at the minute. I've completely lost faith in the team this season.

Wakefield have been lighter up front than when they spanked us twice. We have a good chance. We are vulnerable to any team of any standard that has a bigger pack. Saints strangely don’t have a big pack, just a big Warmsley, their forte is line speed, hence our better showing against them.

Do you realize that should Warrington lose by 24 points or more (not impossible in their current form) then they will go to next to bottom in the league table.

Really?! Here was me thinking we we're top of the table. Thanks for the valuable insight.

On this 'pack size' issue I posted elsewhere a comparison of our 4 props from the Morley era, Hill era, now and next year and to be honest there didnt appear to be a great deal of difference - apart from Kasiano.
They are all big blokes, but it's what they do on the field that matters.
So a call for a 'bigger pack' is not the right call I think.
A call for 'a more aggressive/stronger/dominant' pack might be'.

Thewlis
Wrench
Ratchford
King
Ashton
Widdop
Williams
Amor
Clark
Cooper
Currie
Holmes
Magoulias

Walker
Bullock
Mikaele
Philbin/Longtaff

This is what i'd go for, King and Currie are gonna have to muscle up against Tanginoa running riot on their edge.

Currie can just pretend Tanginoa is a spectator.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha proper got me this

Think Powell will play Widdop at fullback, Thewlis wing, Wrench Centre and leave Ratchford in the halves.

Expecting that Magoulias will be dropped,to allow Mikaele to play.

We are so lucky to have enlightened Wigan fans to point out the facts, I thought a win would put us in reach of the top 2.

Id go. Wrench centre, Thewlis wing, Ratch at 6,6. Widdop at FB.
If i had my way id have Currie nowhere near the side...hes done absolute zero bar 2 games of any note since his injuries. He sherks takles at 2nd row so having him at centre is an absolute no no from me.

The pre-ACL Currie was a very good player with huge potential.

The post-ACL Currie is an average SL player. Hard facts
