Quote: WARRIORCRAIG "There was also, once again, the noticeable massive drop in intensity when Logan spells McIlorum. It's a tactic that has never worked and IMO LT is simply not Wigan standard. He's had over 40 first team appearances now, plus the loan spell with Salford last season. He offers nothing. McIlorum should either be left on for the full 80 or Williams should be used as the bench hooker. I'm not sure when Powell's back but I'd be putting him straight back in at 6 when he's fit, and using Hampshire there in the meantime.
Not sure if Clubb had a knock or if he was just knackered from Friday, but he was completely anonymous yesterday.'"
Logan has done ok for me this season but there are clearly other reasons why Logan is being used from a tactical point of view.
SW often likes to time the MM interchanges to coincide with what the opposition are doing, especially if they have an impact type forward like Mosoe at Saints and its been pretty effective so far.
Stats aside I think MM adds so much to the side in terms of the fear factor and allowing him to rest when the opposition enforcers are doing the same can help us.
