Great news that he can now go out on dual reg. I'm a big fan of Gelling when he plays centre, it's a big shout but I think he would prove to be the best centre at the club if he got a decent run of games

Its not an RFL rule change, there are new UK Border Agency visa regulations in place effective from beginning of April. Previously, overseas players on Tier 2 visas were only allowed to play for their main employer, therefore couldn't be DR'd but the new immigration laws mean that they can now be eligible for DR under certain circumstances.

Are there any Rumanian Rugby Players who we could sign to take advantage of this new loophole, Wigan probably would not need to pay for their flights over, they are more than likely already in this country.

The reviewers on the Workington website cannot praise him enough. He really needs a run of games though.

Quote: Levrier "The reviewers on the Workington website cannot praise him enough. He really needs a run of games though.'" Judge for yourselves on all four Wigan lads. Highlights of the game v Sheffield :- https://m.youtube.co...h?v=mGC6MMl7fBM

so how did gelling do today ?

Wasn't playing for Town today.

So what does that tell us about Mondays team?

we have 3 injured to replace

Team for Monday

Bowen
Manfredi
Goulding
Sarginson
Burgess
Green
Smith
Taylor
Williams
James
Clubb
Hughes
Crosby

Gelling (back row)
C. Farrell
Dudson
Powell

I'd rest McIlroum, Faz, Lockers and Bateman, bring them back in the cup game.

Think that side could still get the job done against Bradford but the cup is more important.

I would expect Powell, Hampshire, Dudson, Hughes, Crosby, Gelling and maybe Connor Farrell to play on Monday.

Monday looks like an opportunity to hand a few chances out but we don't want to go too far because Bradford have an upset in them imo.

I'd look to rest Bowen, Burgess and Lockers on top of the lads that look likely to miss out through injury and go-

Hampshire
Manfredi
Goulding
Gelling
Sarginson
Green
Smith
Clubb
McIlorum
Crosby
Hughes
Farrell
Bateman

subs
Dudson
Taylor
C Farrell
Williams

Taylor deserves a rest, then maybe Clubb next week

FB 32 Hampshire
RW 23 Sarginson (would have preffered Manfredi to get a run though)
RC 3 Goulding (would have rested him and played Sarginson here if Manfredi had been in the 19)
LC 5 Gelling
LW 32 Burgess
SO 19 Powell
SH 7 Smith
P 24 Clubb
H 9 McIlorum (get him off for Williams if/when we get 20 in front)

SR 14 Hughes
SR 12 L.Farrell
LF 25 Bateman

S 27 Williams
S 28 James
S 36 C.Farrell
