For my pack and bench:
Cook
McShane
Millington
Clark
Wardle
Massey
Springer
Moors
Webster
Maher
We'd get impact from Moors like we did against KR, he'd come on for Cook. Springer would do a stint to give Millington a small rest too.

See absolutely no point in having backs on the bench. Waste of a spot and we need every fit forward we can get.
Millo, Massey, Moors will have to lead from the front but they'll still need spelling. Having Cook, Maher, Green, Springer at least offers that and some freshness even just for 10 mins

Agree Hudds. Only back in mine is Webster and would use him to spell the likes of Massey in the pack.

Then again no point in having Maher on the bench when he never comes on, may as well have a back there to cover for injuries or to move Webster in to the pack if need be.

I agree entirely, unless its a player who adds a different dimension to our attack, similar to how Wigan used Esacre at the beginning of the season.
I do understand why people have Webster on the bench who may be able to do a job in the 2nd row but I would prefer him at centre.

I would play him. If only for a 10 minute stint. Can easily change Maher for Green on my bench who would also spell a forward. Having Clare or Egodo on the bench just in case of an injury seems pointless to me.

Exactly. And the only have Escare so they can move Tomkins to 6 and Powell to 9 to spell Leuluai.
Always go out with your most experienced side. I wouldn't have an inexperienced three quarter line as Wigan will just attack that side and then you're stuck with a sub you can't bring on if you have to change things to try and stop it.

Apparently the reason Maher didn't come on against Wire was so he could play dual reg on the Sunday. I suppose the thinking was that he was there if necessary.
Not my way of doing things, but there you are.

Damn. Someone mentioned they saw him on crutches. What's the injury Towns? Timeline? If Eden isn't fit Gill will step in.

I'd imagine Eden and Watts shouldn't be too long (hopefully).
Please could someone give us fans an injury update. There's players like McMeeken, Minikin and Foster I don't even know what the injury is.

So maybe he'll be back for Leeds the week after.
Someone put on here that Liam was possibly in the running to play tomorrow. This is why i'd like an update from the club.

Liam watts told me he’d be back week after he did it, he also had an interview with mick Morgan, he also said he’d be back this week so who knows.
Baffling.

Christ sounds like we have nobody due back anytime soon. Wouldnt be so bad but all those injured would start week in week out.
Think were 1 win away from a gauranteed top 8 arent we.
