pretty sure we'll be ok when Finch is back & we can spell Tommy & Micky Mc at 9  |

but would you ever want Leuluai off the pitch? |

If we do call Mellor back it looks like he'll be on the bench and Lockers will be at 6. I'm guessing Deacon must be out or else I don't see the point in Mellor coming back.

True. We want to win but no point risking players at this point to get a win. No point rushing players back for this game. Huddersfield won't go the entire season injury free either so if we are too threadbare to win this one we will just have to put up with it. I can cope with losing to a team in form like them when we have several players out more than I would have done losing to Hull on Sunday. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Looks like Mellor is returning. I would love for him and Leuluai to start. Lets see what he can do. Players who are true quality usually shine on debut, I can see him doing just that if Wigan win and he plays.

I have every confidence that Mellor will succeed, but my main concern is his lack of match practice over the last 18 months.
On the other hand, it's preferable to bringing Finch back, possibly too early, and in a way we've little to lose in a match that we'll probably start as underdogs with so many missing.
