The Warriors tackle the Wildcats at Belle Vue on Sunday on the back of a week of disruption after a virus ripped through the squad with training cancelled on Wednesday and Thursday.
Wane admitted the preparation was far from ideal but refused to look for any excuses ahead of the game.
“We’re looking forward to it,” he said. “It’s going to be a special game for us because we will be giving another debut out.
“Things are quiet (at the training ground) we had to send the players away yesterday (Wednesday) and today (Thursday) and some staff members too because of a virus that’s gone through the club.
“We’ve lost two full days. With it being an eight-day turnaround I thought we’d be able to get some work into the players but that’s not happened so we’ll just have a team run and then play but the players will be good at the end of it.
“We’ve lost a few players on the back of having a busted team but I do have a good medical team, the players will be good and ready and there will be no excuses from us being lethargic on Sunday. We’ll be fit and ready and really challenging Wakefield.”
Pushed on which Wigan junior would become the fourth academy product to debut this season, he said
SW hints above that Gelling will back in 4-5 weeks (similar to Sam), that's how I read it anyway.
