Did I see gelling warm up with the team today? If so I'd have him at centre, worth a try...


Sam
Charnley
Goulding (great game from him today)
Gelling
Richards
Powell
Smith
Mossop
McIlorum
Flower
Hansen
Farrell
Burke

Hughes
Taylor
Lauaki
Tomkins

this...our games for 2 important points, whilst the exiles is a fairly meaningless friendly warm up game being played at an inconvenient time

Don't understand all this talk of 'can't afford', we're 3 points clear at the top of the league, 5 if Hudds lose tonight, and the top 4 are much of a muchness once it comes to the crunch. Plus Widnes are in 10th place even if they are in ok form. Assuming we didn't pick up any new injuries and Lockers is back I'd go:

FB 1 S.Tomkins
RW 2 Charnley
RC 3 Goulding
LC 17 Thornley
LW 34 Burgess (or did is it true that Gelling's back early? If so, him)
SO 24 S.Powell
SH 7 Smith
P 26 Crosby
H 23 L.Tomkins
P 10 Mossop
SR 11 Hansen
SR 16 Tuson
LF 13 O'Loughlin

S 8 Lauaki
S 21 Taylor
S 29 Burke
S 31 Williams (or is he out injured? If so McIlorum at H and Logan on the bench)

I'd be tempted to select another 10 or so players. Let's no take them too lightly.

Mr Bilko ,
Would the Tommy refered to in your post be a certain gentleman better known in some parts as "Wee Tam"

I'm sure you would have had his love child if you could have... hehehehe

Bloody phone

Can we play hock

?

He's suspended anyway

Interesting point, will his suspension count against Wigan, since he wasn't allowed to play anyway, under the terms of his loan contract?
