We should remember it isn't all about Wigan, other clubs are in the same boat. You can please all the people all the time.
I don't see the prob with Sunday afternoon games, I wish we had more of them. Convenient for families, finishes fairly early, what's not to like?'"
Apart from the fact that it takes almost an entire day from your weekend (at least productively)?
You have time to get up, get something to eat and maybe do a little bit of something before heading out between 12-1:00 and you're not back until tea-time.
I'd rather have every game on a Friday night - Fine for the kids (no school in the morning) and frees up the entire weekend to either go for a day out with the family or get jobs done.

| Quote: NickyKiss "No need to risk Leuluai and Clubb should certainly be given a game off regardless of his fitness. It’s an ideal opportunity to give Smith a start and get Flower back in to the first team. I’d like to see Bourouh given a chance also. Looking ahead to next season there’s a bench spot open for a halfback/hooker and he’s a chance of grabbing it, if we get to have a look at him this year.
I’d go-
French
Manfredi Hardaker Hankinson Marshall
Smith Hastings
Byrne Powell Partington
Isa Farrell Smithies
Subs
G Burgess Flower Bullock Bourouh'"
Very young starting pack that one though. We've had that backfire on us in the past. The young guns are all good enough to be starters individually but I'd be loathe to start them all at the same time. Burgess was good coming off the bench on Sunday and I'd like to keep him in that role for the time being but maybe Flower could do the first 15 mins and then a spell at the end? Failing that, I think I'd prefer Bullock to start.

I thought Byrne was superb on Sunday and it’s probably just reward for him to start the game. I get what you’re saying but if felt the issues in the early rounds were more down to having kids starting alongside ten minute Tony and then kids coming off the bench. I’d probably ease Flower and Burgess back in, so it would be Bullock or Byrne for that last starting spot. I thought Bullock made a couple of errors on Sunday, with a knock on which lead to a penalty and him sleeping for their try. He’s a cracking player Bullock and we need him in the side but I’d like to see them give Byrne that reward of starting.

Only change I’d make is Clubb for Clarke

| I was surprised Clark missed out and he would be the easy replacement for Clubb but I think they see him in the impact mould so it would mean Bullock starting.

| Agree that Bryne deserves a start. Bullock, Burgess and Clark/Flower off the bench.

The Sunday games are a direct result of feedback from the fans survey.

| At this time of year I think the Sunday games are positive. Not a lot to do with the family in this current weather, so to be able to go in the daytime, when it’s a bit warmer than the colder evenings is better for many. It’s all personal taste but I’m happy with Sunday’s early in the year and Friday evenings as it warms up and stays lighter longer. I was always a fan of the Sky Saturday evening kick offs and wouldn’t mind a few of those.

Agree. If I want to take my five year old grandson then Sunday games are better at this time of year. Also if I'm driving to away games then Sunday is much better for traffic and not having to drive home in the dark. Certainly the likes of Hull and Hull KR are easier for us and them on a Sunday and of course the infamous M60 - M602 road closures at night!!!!!!!
