I like this team, but think we'll go with McNamara in the halves and Lane at 13.

It's nice to have the option to mix it up with Lovodua. Something we've not had in a while.

I think Mcintosh will play too.

Gale is in for Macca and Evans is out,

Think TL will be a big loss for Wigan. Your side looks strong with virtually all first teamers available. Should be a good contest for viewers.

We'll be missing one or two, but it's the healthiest we've looked so far this season. Honestly I'd be disappointed to lose this game. I haven't been overly impressed by Wigan, I think we can dominate them physically, and Connor is in the form of his career and will take advantage if we give him the platform.

Re: Wigan Away : Tue Mar 29, 2022 11:21 am  

Wigan look like a Wane team again, very strong in defence and physical. Got some threats in Cust and Field too.

Be a real tough game, but with our squad we are capable of winning this

Re: Wigan Away : Tue Mar 29, 2022 11:23 am  

French back too, some pace in that backline.

Re: Wigan Away : Tue Mar 29, 2022 11:38 am  

2 good teams announced.

The DW is always a difficult place to go. Hopefully the players are up for it and give it a good go.

Think we have the edge in the pack. Wigan still seem a little on the small side. But they have obvious flair in Field and French.

Should be a good game, with us just nicking a win

Re: Wigan Away : Tue Mar 29, 2022 12:58 pm  

I would hope we have a similar kicking game to what we had against Huddersfield to Senior. Get it high, good chase, and it doesn't matter how quick he is. Bevan French will be so short of match fitness it could benefit us

Think as others have said we have the edge and certainly look much stronger in the pack so be disappointed if we didn't dominate down the middle. Need to see the numbers of carries again from the likes of Satae, Sao, Evans etc well in to double figures again. Just be relentless, keep our discipline and make Wigan have to work hard to get out their own 40. Leuluai is a big loss for them along with Pearc-Paul, French will be no where near match fit so we need to be patient and tire him out, Field will be a danger with his pace.
Winning at Wigan is never an easy task but if we are serious about challenging then these are games we need to be able to win, if attitude and application is right for the 80mins then we have a very good chance.

This has got a big match feel to it where a marker could be put down for the season, shame it's a Thursday fixture but there you go, safe trip over for all of you coming to the game
