Add that to the fact, that he got too big for his boots!

My bad.

I would have him at Hull in a heartbeat

I can't believe that Luaki gets a game in front of Taylor. Some strange logic at work in Wigan.

Whatever logic there using it works

He's been awesome at Leigh whislt on Duel reg from Wigan according to Leigh fans.

Scott Has played well in all the games he's played for us this year, we have a policy at Wigan to not 'over play' our young players, rotating players in and out. You'll see the likes of Sam Powell, Logan Tomkins, Dom Crosby, Jack Hughes, Anthony Gelling [When Fit], Gil Dudson, Tom Spencer, George Williams [And anyone else i'm missing] drift in and out of the squad with regularity. I wouldn't be surprised to see Scott back in the team for the Match against Wakefield, by all accounts, he played a stormer at Leigh at the weekend.

He had played in 4 of the previous 7 games before this weekend, so he's getting plenty of game time. I think with Lauaki coming back into the squad after about 16 or so games out has had a little to do with him not playing over the last couple of weeks, he's been in good form too.

If this policy is in place, are the likes of tomkins & charnley exempt from it?

Wigan are well stocked with props,they're not well stocked with Charnley's or Tomkins', but you knew that you big dafty cake.

So it's not wigans policy then is it, they have other wingers an fullbacks, they just don't get a look in. What was the name of the fb hull loaned of them again?

That would be Russell. I'm sure I read somewhere that he was apparently going to try his hand in Oz (but I could be mistaken).

Matty Russell, he's in Australia. Lauaki needs game time (he's played very well since he came back from injury) but he can't play on a dual registration. Taylor is second behind Ben Flower in number of games played by the Wigan props this season. wigan.rlfans.com/readarticle.php?article_id=1818

I thought Lauaki was really good on Sunday night.

Bit strange that you'd pay a fee for a player and then send him to Leigh, but when there's Mossop, Prescott, Lauaki, Flower, Dudson, Crosby and Taylor I guess you can rotate them a little bit and keep players fresh for the business end.

Russell, what you chatting?

Tomkins and Charnley are both established first team players, with over 100 apps a piece [150 in Tomkins' case] Now should there be a dip in for for either player, they may very well see their spot go to a young player waiting in the wings.

The players I mentioned have less than 30 apps each. With the exception of Jack Hughes, who has been an ever present for us this year, apart from this weekend.

We have a squad that is, as is quite large, able to sustain to rotating of younger/inexperienced players.

You can also factor in Iain Thornley who has played every game this year - mostly due to the fact he has come on leaps and bounds, and partly because we aren't blessed with an abundance of quality centres [Same across the entire league really].

Edit he hardly deserves to be dropped, just to bring in a young lad who may not be actually ready for the step up just for him to 'get a sniff in' as you put it.
