SOL looking to be slowing as does Farrell.
Loului retired?
Bateman to NRL?
Sam Cats. Joel...Leigh/Salford?'"
Farrell?
I was abroad on Saturday and (thankfully) haven’t seen the game but it’s two weeks since the bloke made 190m+ against Wire at Magic in addition to nearly 30 tackles. He’s having a really good season and has to be the most underrated player in superleague for my money.
The rest I can’t argue with. I hope Leuluai plays on as he’s another having a good season but if he doesn’t and Lockers calls it quits we’ve lost a lot of experience and 2019 could be tough.
I must admit I’ve not thrown the towel in on 2018 yet though like some people seem to have done. Maybe it’s because the last game I attended was that Magic game and I’ve been shielded from the events of the past two weeks but there is a great deal of talent in this current Wigan team and two poor results on the back of a really big shock in Wane announcing his departure doesn’t hide the fact that we’re still in the hunt for two trophies and are in a strong position. The players need to pull their heads from up their backsides but would I be surprised to see O’Loughlin raise the Grand Final trophy above his head at Old Trafford in October? No, not at all.
Big game this Thursday for us in regards to the general atmosphere around the place.
