So guess we will line up

Hampshire / Miller

ARona
Crowther
Battye

Walker

Wood
Aydin
Batchelor
Fifita

Not far off with that imo.

Swap Crowther and Walker. Walker has been a lot more productive at 9 that Crowther. Crowther plays LF better than 9.

Battye got destroyed at Warrington starting at prop. I’d rather Aydin be on early to soak up 20 mins then bring the impact on Battye and Dave on.

All things considered it’s a pretty decent team other than the right edge that looks somewhat inexperienced.

All I can say is we have a far better recent record against Wigan than Ca. I now believe we will never beat Cas until Powell is finally gone. For some reason Powell has us every time.

Lets concentrate on Wigan now.

We may be 6 up but hid we are playing some of the dumbest rugby I’ve ever seen Wigan should be dead and buried by now they are nothing special so far.

Fully agree stupid penalties and coughing the ball up under no pressure. All we need to do is control our possession and keep it clean.

Nothing special is being kind. This Wigan side is dire, if we engage what few braincells we have we’ll run away with it second half. I’ll be disappointed if we let them score to be honest.

Still no sign of the brain cell working yet.

Re: Team for Wigan : Thu Jun 24, 2021 8:11 pm  

We are dire.

Re: Team for Wigan : Thu Jun 24, 2021 8:12 pm  

If we lose this game, serious questions need to be asked... Wigan look absolutely dreadful, any other team would be 30 points in front.

Re: Team for Wigan : Thu Jun 24, 2021 8:32 pm  

That was excruciating to watch, total effort but not much rugby but two points is two points

I am now convinced there actually isn’t one. Wins a win i suppose but that was like pulling teeth.
