Watching the videos on Wigan TV it looks like lockers is defo still out and Tuson is struggling, didn't hear any mention of Goulding so I assume he's fit, I'd go with:

Sam
Charnley
Goulding
Thornley
Richards
Green
Smith
Mossop
McIlorum
Taylor
Hansen
Farrell
Flower

Dudson
Gelling
Crosby
Hughes/Tuson

Gelling to provide cover in the backs. Looking forward to it.

If Lockers and Tuson miss out-

Tomkins
Charnley
Goulding
Gelling
Richards
Green
Smith
Mossop
McIlorum
Dudson
Hansen
Farrell
Flower

Subs
Taylor
Crosby
Hughes
Spencer

Tuson in for Spencer if he makes it.

When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club. We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens. Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

I'd go with more or less the same squad that demolished Huddersfield.
If Goulding is fit and Gelling isn't in the starting 13 then put him on the bench instead of Hughes.
Andy Powell to start and in his 9 mins to do his 13 tackles and 3 hit ups. (per SL stats) We lost Powell after 9 mins and Hudds lost Crabtree after 16 and Lunt shortly after. I know who got the best out of that! Go with 6 props again.
We need another demolition job doing on the Leeds pack as was done v Huddersfield.

Tomkins,
Charnley, Goulding, Thornley, Richards,
Green, Smith,
Powell, McIlorum, Mossop,
Hansen, Farell,
Flower.
Bench - Crosby, Dudson, Taylor and Gelling.

Wouldn't include Spencer as he's hardly player SL this year, and I don't think Wane will.

Tuson for Powell and Goulding for Thornley. Probably Dudson to start alongside Mossop.

Wonder if O'Loughlin will try and throw his hat in the ring?

That's assuming Lockers and Tuson are out of course. Not a big fan of Hughes this year but there's not really another option as a bench second rower. Gelling's not played there for us so it wouldn't be that smart to bring him on there in a play off game. I'm assuming Burke's season's over

The Centre positions are a worry, Goulding has hardly played any Rugby in the last couple of months, he has missed matches for various reasons or been taken off injured (the last two matches taken off with concussion).
That's why I think we should start with Thornley and Goulding in the Centres with Gelling on the bench, that way we would not be in the position of having to move a forward to centre if Goulding has to go off again.

Any doubts about Gouldings fitness, leave him out.

I'm pretty sure Goulding's injuries were concussions, he would be pretty damn unlucky to get concussed for a third time. Certainly wouldn't use up a bench spot on the off chance. Agree re him not playing if he's not 100% over it of course

Hughes/A Powell (still think he might be worth using in 10-15 min bursts off the bench, starting him was ridiculous IMO, but he could turn out to be a useful impact prop running at tired defences)
