Hardaker Marshall Sarginson/Hank Gildart Burgess Williams Leaulai Bullock Powell Flower Greenwood Isa SOL
Clubb Naverrette Sharrocks Smithies
None of this SOL on the bench this week. Hill and Cooper are up there with Saints pair as the best props in the league. Need to handle them.
Gone with Tommy at 7 for some big game experience, and defence.
Smithies for Tautai as a backrow option should an injury occur.
Sharrocks/Williams/Powell/Leaulai long kicking game is all as bad as each other. Note Sam Tomkins did all our kicking in the GF. Hopefully Sammut back soon.
Hardaker Marshall Hankinson Gildart Burgess Williams Shorrocks Bullock Leuluai Flower Greenwood Isa Smithies
Clubb Naverrette Powell Lockers
We need stability and consistency so this is no time to start messing with the spine. We also lose our intensity after our 1st bench players come on and by having Lockers in the bench it means we can maintain the intensity and direction during the back part of the 1st half. Kicking will be huge because in Ratchford, Austin, Clarke and Patten, they’ll kick us to death. I believe Hankinson has done enough to keep his place, especially defensively so if Sarginson comes back in, it would be on the wing in place of Marshall for me but that’s a tough call.

I wouldn't put sarge in place of Marshall I like him he's a great finisher and always does well against wire
Probably as strong a 13 as Wigan have managed to get out this season. Lam throwing all the eggs at this game. A good CC run and mid table would be very satisfactory after the early start and off pitch shanannighans this season. The bench looks a touch weak...that could be costly with a full stakes match like this.
Enjoy the day though. As always, love playing Wigan.
