Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif

Ok sorry I got carried away, no need to be pedantic.

Just 3 or 4 'clones' would make a massive difference to our current team. Juts can't believe we once had a team filled with world beaters in every position.

Past Wigan players

Hampo/Radz
Robinson/Gill/Ferguson
Connelly/Iro
Bell/Miles/Ren
Offiah/Boston
Edwards/Paul/Botica/Kenny/Barrett
Edwards/Greg/Dobson
Kel/Barrie Mc/Cowie
Kiss/Dermott/Hall
Platt/O Connor/Lucas
BettsGoodway
Potter/Goodway/Furner
Hanley/Clarke/Faz

All would walk into the current squad/team.

I always love this kind of thread, nobody ever goes for players before the 80s. How about Ashton, Boston, Gee or Sullivan just to mention a few?

People tend to pick players they've seen play. Rogues will probably pick Jim Sullivan eusa_whistle.gif

Quote: Last Son of Wigan "Only got 3 picks from our history. If I picked Radz I couldn't have had Hanley Edwards or Farrell.

I think These positions are more important to fill than the FB spot.

Obviously I'd have Rads over Pat. but then again I've have Hampo over Rads.'"




Sorry man

I really should read things better icon_smile.gif

I'd take Sam Panapa thesedays. Mark Preston over Roberts, and McGinty over Lockers.

Hardly Wigan's best as well!

Amen to Ashurst.
Leaving recent players out, McTigue at prop and Eric Ashton in the centres.
Only left William B out as winger not quite so crucial......perhaps

Preston would have given Offiah a race in his prime.

Can't see anyone at Wigan keeping up with those two. Frighten speed.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg

Keri Jones would have given them both a run for their money, Empire Games sprinter before turning to rugby, pity he was so injury prone.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



Three who so far have not been mentioned.


Glynn Shaw - man monster, a character and hard as nails, and could lead a good sing song.

David Bolton - fast and elusive

Alan Davies - would really "look after" and develop Ainscough
