And who would they have displaced?

Oh here he comes!

Go and enjoy your win!

You really must be mortified that our young lads did so well tonight.

I mean honestly......

And Morley. I think that was the feeblest first carry I've ever seen after being bigged up as an impact sub.

Just stating facts as opposed to those saying Warrington were at full strength.

As for who they would replace? That's Tony Smith's call although a quick look will see that whenever they have been fit Bridge, Cooper and Harrison have been in the 17 every week.

Who would Wigan's five missing props have replaced?

Tomkins, Charnley, Smith, Goulding and Powell knowing Wane

Not strictly an answer to your question, but then your question is an attempt to dodge the main issue.

Sean O'Loughlin would have replaced Burke, Ben Flower would have replaced Crosby, Gil Dudson or Eric Lauaki would have replaced Spencer, Mike McIlorum would have replaced Williams and Blake Green would have replaced Powell.

There's five for you, with one extra as sugar on top.

Any more questions, or are you now embarrassed enough?

And taylor in for williams most likely.

:s

Just for your information O'Loughlin, McIlorum and Green are not props.

All I'm saying is that Warrington were not at full strength which is something multiple posts on here were stating.

I thought Warrington were average. They didn't look fit at all and when we started dominating their forwards looks absolutely knackered, they couldn't back in their attacking line. Outstanding effort from our lads. Not too disappointed with the loss cause a good performance was what I wanted. When it comes to the serious games at the end of the season, full strength we have a great chance of beating Wire.

Expected a hammering when i saw the team....10 minutes to go i was rubbing my eyes in disbelief, ...im happy, even in defeat

I love it when people try to hide behind the exact wording of their post to try and save face.

But okay, I'll have it. Lockers, Green and McIlorum don't count, so we obviously didn't miss them.

I guess I'll just have to add Prescott and Taylor to the list. Both are props, both were regular first-teamers until injured.

I was going easy on you before, by not mentioning them. But while you insist, that makes it five props and nine absentees overall, if you also count Thornley. Sorry for that, but you asked.

Enough of the friendly stuff now time for debate. Warrington average? What does that make you? In the last 10 mins we were the ones pushing forward. Lets also not forget it wasn't as if you've just plucked this team out following injuries from the last round of games. Wigan like Warrington had almost two weeks to prep for that game. Your lads have been turning teams over for fun.
Just accept it was a great game and could have gone either way. Better than to be bitter and look for the negatives in the opposition. You had loads of ball and couldn't break the defensive line. Had you have played Other teams tonight you would have scored a hat full.
