Ah right sorry, thought I'd missed something then. (Not been paying attention to anyone else's pre-season).

Yea warrington have confirmed early that it will be fringe & u20's players that make up their team so has even priced accordingly. Wigan have indicated you will be sending a strong squad made up of your first team players this year so u might win at LSV for a change icon_wink.gif

Just to clarify we have an agreement with Wigan that you are treating this as a first team friendly and a warm up for the WCC. We had another options and as a new board did not want to play your kids/reserves this year and had another SL club lined up if you could not commit to a strong team.

The a Warrington game is a fringe squad/ U20s hit out for us and Wire hence the price.

For our game we are opening three of the four stands at LSV in anticipation of a 5k plus gate and will obviously have all the associated costs that brings, against Wire we are only opening one stand.

A near full strength Wigan vs Leigh at full strength playing for local pride and the Arthur Thomas memorial trophy (see below) not only makes for a great spectacle this year but hopefully as we develop as a force over the coming years could be an annual local event that we can all look forward to. For those old enough to remember the early 80s we were once looking down on you guys icon_wink.gif

Im looking forward to seeing the biggest club and the best team in the top flight take on the biggest club and best team currentley outside of SL.

See you all down at LSV.

I suspect most of our World Cup players will be 'carrying injuries' for this game, can see the line up being something like:

Sarginson
Manfredi
Gelling
Thornley
Burgess
Hampshire
Smith
Taylor
Tomkins
Flower
Clubb
Hughes
Bateman

Powell
Hopkins
Dudson
Pettybourne

Can't see it being stronger than that, Charnley is injured so definitely won't be playing, O'Loughlin only plays in finals now icon_wink.gif I think we will see Green and Bowen rotated between Sarginson, Hampshire, Powell and Tierney throughout the year with both of them possibly leaving at the end. Hopefully Hopkins will get a game against his old club despite not travelling to florida with the first team.

which Powell ? despite all the rumours AP and EL are still technically Wigan players. Given that Sam Powell played twice as many games as Rocky last year, will that continue this season, now that (I assume) Williams and Hampshire wont be able to play U19 ?

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

Hampshire and Williams still qualify at U19. I think 13 or 14 of last years academy winning team still do.

I meant Sam Powell as I believe Andy has left the club. We do a have a lot of competition in hype halves next year: Green, Smith, Sarginson, Powell, Hampshire, Williams. Possibly a few tough decisions for the coaching staff to make in the future, although I do think this year will be Greens last at Wigan - mutual choice.

I thought you meant Sam. Agree with what you say, and I think this puts real pressure on Logan as either SP or GW could convert to a ball playing 9, which would balance nicely with what MM brings to the team. Will be a good scrap to see the long term replacement at FB as well.

Will be interesting to see what the Club does if no one offers AP or EL contracts. I assume that they would be happy for AP to stay on, but as for Eric ...

That, sir would mean a visit to Fax (highest average attendance) Fev (2nd highest attendances and league leaders) or Sheffield (Champions).

You are wrong mate. Last season Fev had the highest average attendance in the Championship.

I think you will be surprised if you come to the Capital next Sunday. icon_smile.gif
