Paul Prescott has been picked whilst Paul Wood hasn't. Add to Shaun Lunt being demoted.
No much credibility in the selections there.

| Quote: inside_man "I think the only "average" players in Wigans team are Goulding + Deacon (ignoring Marsh, who wouldn't/shouldn't get in the side when everyones fit).
Leuluai isn't average but I just can't figure out where he should play. I rate McIllorum highly, he's a workhorse but his distribution is constantly improving, and he's got a handy kicking game.
I also genuinely don't think there are many better centres than Carmont in the league, I'd only have Bridge over him, and maybe King if he played in the centres + not the wing. I rate him higher than Shenton and the Senior of 2011.'"
I would much rather have Deacon in my team than Leuluai IMO. On Carmont he is a good solid player to have but i think Shenton is better.

You call Carmont solid, but I'd say his attacking skills are his strength, he makes so many breaks down that left side as well as usually making any overlaps count.
No but I still just think Harrisons a prop. I think Hansen is just a workhorse, tackles solidly all day, pretty good support play, and he'll chip in with a few tries. Wigans version of Paul Clough.
So no, I don't think he's better than Harrison, but I also don't think he's far off, and both of them and pretty far away from average.

Possibly because 3 of Wigan's 5 props last season, Feka, Coley and OCarroll - didn't play?

| Anyway.
1 young player from Wigan that I do like is Liam Farrell. A 20 year old with a big future.

Agreed - impresses me every time I see him play. I would take him over Mitchell or Tyke any time although Mitchell is looking more impressive this season. Also really like the look of Charnley from what I've seen so far. Wigan do consistently produce some good young players.
When I look at the respective first teams, although I know I'm biased, I think the Wigan players I would put in our side without hesitation are Sam Tomkins, Pat Richards and Sean O'Loughlin. I would also take Farrell as mentioned above. Apart from that I think I would choose all our players but as I said, I'm biased!

I agree r.e Charnley, his finishing last week and during his spell with the Robins is nothing short of outstanding. Definitely one for the future.
