About what I was expecting for Faraimo. Probably fair enough on reflection

Looking at Wigans squad and the possibles missing for them
Ruled out: Jai Field (hamstring), Liam Marshall (knee), Thomas Leuluai (sternum)
Doubtful: Oliver Gildart (groin), Dom Manfredi (thumb)
Think Leuluai will be a big miss for them along with Marshall and possibly Gildart.
Hopefully the guys can get a decent recovery this week and be ready and raring to go again on Friday. I don't expect to remain undefeated to be honest as think the physicality of Fridays game after such a short turn around from a 90 min game will take it toll. Still a part of me is optimistic and we have shown so far we are more adept at staying in the grind so far this season.

Probably would have been 1 or possibly 2 games but due to his previous its been set as 2.
Just needs to improve his technique and make sure he makes contact low enough in future but these things happen with the speed of the game.
I do also think that some onus has to go on the attacking player too in these instances in regards to high shots when they start to crouch or duck, so I do have some sympathy for Faraimo in this instance as once he's committed he can't readjust. Also think the officials and review panel need to take these things plus the speed of the game in to account as judging a lot of these incidents in anything other than real time speed is unfair and gives a false account.
Gives Fonua another opportunity now.'"
The problem is, he likes to leap into the tackle so the minute his feet leave the floor, he's in trouble. If he stays on the ground, the chances are he won't be high and take his head off. He needs to rethink his technique. |

Ruled out
We play Wigan on Thursday, so a six day turnaround for us this week and seven for Wigan.
Thought we looked jaded v Wakefield after the extended Warrington match, so hopefully an extra day will help increase our energy levels, because we’ll need them at Wigan.

Yes must agree, a fair result at the old disciplinary, as this week the MRP only looked at six of our players, including a Josh Johnstone whoever he is.

He did catch the ball with both hands. |

Watch the replay on original recording rather than highlights.

Wakey fans think Rocky broke his jaw, trying to stop Sav scoring, it’s a tough game ours, much respect to all the players.

Which is why I said he needs to improve/work on his technique and to be fair he didn't exactly take Jowitts head off it, there was marginal contact with the head but as things are in the game today that is enough. I don't think he is much dissimilar to the way Ratu used to leap in to tackle.
I think Faraimo has certainly improved his defence this season so hopefully can adjust his technique and lessen the risk as wouldn't like to see him lose that aggressive defence. |

Squad announced, unless anymore injuries as expected Brown in for Bowden and Fonua for Faraimo.
Good to see Harvey Barron in the squad, he along with another winger Joel Speed have very good potential, be good to get some home ground wingers and be able to use our quota spots on more pivotal positions.

That did cross my mind too.
As for Thursday's game, if every one named is fit then the team picks itself. |
