Replacement for Lockers, when he retires at the end of the year?

Decent second row he may be, but a class loose forward never.

Agree with Bateman at loose.

Let's not forget he made his first impression on the side playing at 13 when Lockers was injured. He was excellent then and I see no reason why he can't be an option at 13.

Where are people plucking the Lockers retirement talk from? Seems to be just conjecture as he's had a few injuries lately.

My thoughts to, its as if a player can't have a couple of injuries these days. (don't mention he might be getting saved for the bigger matches) he has had a couple of muscular injuries that kept him out for a couple of weeks at a time.

Other ex Wigan player to return. The only person I can see that being is Tommy. Hock and H not needed now we have Tautai and Tomkins, Sam not going to happen any time soon. Mossop just starting to have an impact in the NRL, Hoffman signed for Warriors and Lima is gash.
