Roberts to miss out for me aswell as Fielden. Some of the basic errors Roberts came up with on Monday were criminal(runing down blind allays into trouble) and he just can't seem to find any consistancy.

Phelps
Ainscough
Gleeson
Carmont
Richards
S Tomkins
Leuluai
Coley
Riddell
Hock
Bailey
O'Loughlin
J Tomkins

SUBS
Paleaaesina
Prescott
Hansen
Smith

Why not give Davies a go at prop? We put faith in Ainscough and Tomkins and ones the top try scorer and the other has never let us down.

Perfect opportunity against our opposition.

Also, why not give Farrell go in the SR if Hock isn't fit? Same principle as with Davies.
Lets have a back 3 of a tackler, a SR with go forward and a ball playing loose. We don't get that with Bailey/Hansen and Lockers.

Nows the time to try new things for many reasons...

I'd love to see:

Richards
Roberts (All this talk of dropping Roberts is stupid, hes settling in well IMO and i wanna see him and Gleeson build up a great -wing pair)
Gleeson
Carmont (if fit, if not, Phelps)
Ainscough
Sam
Tommy
Prescott
Riddell
Coley
Hansen
O'Loughlin
Joel

Hock (if fit, if not, Bailey)
Feka
Davies
McIlorum

I dont see what mcllorum is doing coming off the bench, other players have got dropped for doing less, secondly i like tomkins, but he doesnt have that eye yet of giving a killer ball, smith on the other hand has so id bring smith off the bench lulu 9 tomkins 7

Here Here.

slightly OT but does anyone think Ben Davis looks like a slightly larger Kris Radlinski???

Here, here & here again

Looks like radders if someone attached him to a tyre inflater for ten minutes!!

According to Noble, Phelps is 'definately starting' and Hock & Carmont are 50/50. www.wigantoday.net/warriors/Hock ... 5180616.jp

Well according to that article we we need to slow down and not be so flamboyant trying to please people . what the .
We have this Harlem Globetrotters mentality

I think Sam T needs a week off, at least start him on the bench. Not saying he's knackered, but he needs to be managed properly during his first season. He looked utterly fed-up during the Cats game and I thought he tried his best.

If there's any game in which Smith must be able to show something it's against Celtic so why not give him a run this week?

Phelps
Pat
Bailey if Carmont isnt fit
Gleeson
Roberts
Tomkins
Smith
Fielden
Riddell
Coley
Hansen
J Tomkins
O Loughlin

Hock if not fit then Farrell
Feka
Tommy
Prescott


Ideal opportunity to see if Smith has learned to tackle yet. If he has he could play himself into the team and Tommy could move to interchange with Piggy at 9 permenantly.

Ainscoughs done anything wrong but I think they should give him a week off. Lets not run him into the ground too early eh?

exactly what i've been thinking. i think sam should be given a rest or at least a bench spot.


Phelps (if pat isnt 100%)

Roberts, Gleeson, carmont, Ainscough. (phelps for carmont if not 100%)

Smith Leuluai

Fielden
Riddell
Prescott

Hansen
J.Tomkins
O'Loughlin

Feka
Hock ( Bailey if Hock not 100%)
Coley
S.Tomkins
