Some monster packs next season. I think we'll see a return of the biff for sure!
I think the difference between us and other teams (in the forwards) is our bench & squad depth. We have Lee Mossop, Harrison Hansen, Liam Farrell, Chris Tuson, Jeff Lima, Paul Prescott, Eamon O'carroll, Ben Davies & one of Thomas Leuluai/Mike McIlorum all competing for bench spots. I don't think the same can be said for some of the other sides.'"
I knew I was forgetting someone, Mossop!
Add that into our backs have been the best this year (by virtue of scoring the most points).
On paper Saints pack looks huge, but their backs look a lot weaker than previous years with the loss of Gidley + Wellens being another year older. Some quality kids coming through though, Lomax really impressed me last night.
Leeds look weaker with losing Senior and Donald.
Wire will be just as strong probably, still to be seen how Hodgson does there but I think them or Saints will be our main challengers.
EDIT: I take it back! Just seen Saints have been top points scorers! There goes all my theories! ha.

Definitely. Super League will not be a place for the faint-hearted next year

Maybe a quality hooker will be the final piece in the jigsaw!
Agree that other teams have high quality starting packs, but Wigan's bench and strength in depth is what will count, particularly when teams start picking up injuries.

20333_1393344959.gif 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 |

| I think we need a specialist hooker desperado plus another prop unless Mossop or Hansen bulks up a lot in the off season or O'Carroll and Prescott step up to the next level.

Bradford still look poor to me for 2011 as it stands.
All four of their signings will only turn out to be average at best.

| We have had comfortably the best pack this year in the comp for me, and we are adding Lima and Hoffman and people expect us to drop down the pecking order.
Cant see it myself.

How old is he?

A year younger than Fielden.

| I can actually see another Mark Carroll situation, athough I think taking down Mason would be a bigger task.
Nice to see big names in SL, though.

| Great signing. Will put bums on seats and guarantee column inches, which is what we all want.

Correct. I've always said I wouldn't want him at Wigan due to his destructive influence but I'll admit to being a little jealous if he settles well at HKR and plays to his potential. Could make for some fiery confrontations in the Hull derby.
