Who is a better prop from either squad currently?

Havard, and yes he's injured but you've included Percival.

Forgot about him to be honest. He is potentially a very good player and is already a good player anyway but if I was picking a team right now (ignoring injuries) I'd still have Graham in there. All very hypothetical of course but I don't think my team would be far off. Certainly more than the 3 Wigan players which was quoted by someone else anyway.

I’d have Graham in but I’d have Bullock in ahead of Matty Lees all day long. He hasn’t kicked on Lees as you’d hope whereas Bullock has been excellent this season and is really developing in to an excellent prop.

If I selected a combined team I’d cheat a little to get French and Coote in and go-

Coote
Makinson Hardaker Gildart French
Lomax Hastings
Walmsley Powell Graham
Taia Farrell Knowles

Bullock Singleton
Bentley Roby

Based on all the players being fit and available (Bar Walmsley for a game). Sam Powell to start as he’s outplayed Roby this season and outplayed pretty much every hooker across the league.

Powell has been excellent this season but to suggest he has outplayed Roby is staggering. They have different styles of course so it's sometimes difficult to compare stats, but

Tackles - Roby 466, Powell 594
Missed Tackles - Roby 4, Powell 19
Tries - Roby 2, Powell 10
Assists - Roby 8, Powell 4
Metres - Roby 1028, Powell 400
Clean Breaks - Roby 6, POwell 3

I suppose in a hypothetical 17 I see the sense in starting Powell and bringing Roby on, but if you had to pick the better player currently then it's still Roby all day.

With Lees, I think people underestimate just how serious that injury was that he had and it massively impacted not only his physical growth but also his off season. He obviously hasn’t been as good this year as pre-injury but that’s understandable. I thought his last performance was his best so far this season though. With a full pre season before 2021 I’m sure he’ll be fine and back to his rampaging best. He’s only 22 don’t forget.

I do like Hardaker but would always pick Percival

I'm not keen to slate Graham and Roby on the eve of a derby. Maybe Friday night if things go our way

French, Hastings and Farrell are the only 3 that would make the 13 for me.Its pointless debating with these lot Giraffe if they think the likes of Powell and Hardaker would get in anyones 13 over Roby and Naiqama.

Do you think I would get any chance of debating it on Redvee before the locals arrive to vilify and abuse me. At least on here you get the chance to have your say.

On redvee I think you'd be lucky if they named 1 Wigan player they would want in their side.

Gildart is first choice for England but wouldn't make the Saints 17? Aye alright.

Brad Singleton

I suppose we'll get to see how effective Singleton and Bullock are tonight against a Saints pack that will be badly weakened by Big Al's absence. Can't say I'd be swapping Singleton for Amor in a hurry.

Powell has had a great season but one thing you can't see from stats is perfection of delivery from DH - Roby is simply brilliant in that respect.

Percival is the most talented centre at both clubs IMO, and far superior to Hardaker/Naiqama. Shame he and Gildart have missed so much rugby as they are both great to watch.

I didn't post about how many players would get in our squad so not sure where you are going with that. Just makes me laugh that Singleton is now in a combined team having played two games for the club, one against a post-Wembley Salford on the back of a long break for Wigan
