Adrian Lam has named Wigan Warriors’ 19-man squad to face Wakefield Trinity on Thursday.

Injured Tommy Leuluai and Joe Bullock replaced by Jack Wells and Academy player Ethan Havard.

Wigan Warriors vs Wakefield Trinity, Thursday 18th July, DW Stadium, K.O. 7:45pm.
Head Coach Adrian Lam has named the Wigan Warriors 19-man squad to face Wakefield Trinity on Thursday at the DW Stadium (K.O. 7:45pm).
The reigning Betfred Super League Champions will host the Yorkshire side for the first time this season. The Round 23 fixture will be the second time the two clubs have met in 2019 with Wakefield picking up a 30-20 victory back in early April on their home soil.

Injury news

Prop forward Joe Bullock misses only his second game of the season through a knee injury picked up against St Helens last week. Speaking earlier this week, Adrian Lam explained that the severity of the injury was not yet clear.

“We have Bullock going for an MRI scan on his knee. There is some medial damage but hopefully that’s it. There are some concerns over it being an ACL but we will find out soon. If it is, that will be the season over for him - fingers crossed it’s not.”

Tommy Leuluai also misses out this week through a lower back injury.

Sean O’Loughlin (Achilles), Ben Flower (back) and Joe Greenwood (head injury) remain on the comeback trail and are not available for selection this week.

Dom Manfredi (knee) and Tom Davies (ankle) remain the two long-term injuries in the squad.

He's played almost 75% of the games this season.

I wouldn’t be surprised if his minutes per game is higher than usual this season actually.

I would guess you’re spot on. He was doing longer minutes then he’s done for 5 or 6 seasons early on this year.

About 5 x times More than Tony Clubb at a guess?

A couple of weeks ago I was feeling confident about this game. Now it has long evening written all over it. Good to see either Havard or Wells possibly getting a run but we look a bit youthful upfront now.
