As a Wiganer, I also find it sad that Roby will play his last GF game. He has been a credit to the sport.

“The Wigan Head Coach has made three changes to the squad, with the inclusion of Iain Thornley, Junior Nsemba and Tom Forber.

Willie Isa is unavailable for the Warriors after picking up a one-match suspension, whilst Jai Field and Cade Cust are unavailable through injury.”


No Astley so Sam Powell in the halves.

If everyone’s fit I’d go

French
Miski
King
Wardle
Marshall
Powell
Smith
Byrne
O’Neill
Cooper
KPP
Farrell
Smithies

Shorrocks
Havard
Ellis
Singleton

Smithies to SR and Shorrocks to start at LF.
Forber to replace Shorrocks on the bench.
Forwards have to step up. All of them.
KPP has the perfect platform to show if he is really ready for the nrl.
Interesting times.

It would be a very pleasant surprise if we win this one. I don’t think the pack have it in them and with Field out, likely replaced by Powell we will be missing a cutting edge.

I just hope it’s a good game and a great atmosphere. I’m making the 250 mile trek up for this one and taking the kids for the first time.
