I'd go with Gaskell at full back, as per start of season. Also go for a physical strong team vs Wigan.

Gaskell
mcgillvary
cudjoe
Mellor
murphy

leeming

brough
ridyard

ikahihifo
wakeman

Ferguson
Roberts
Hinchy (got to keep him at loose)

bench-
roberts
Taai
clough
Dickinson

Given Wigans supposed lack of forward options it makes sense for us to load our bench with forwards, although I'd rather have Murphy at centre over Mellor given how mobile Wigan are with their shift plays. Also, Roberts in the team twice there

mcintosh has gained experience at full back early this season, this is when those games will benefit him and the team

gaskell stays at centre for me , was doing ok last week with murphy..

think it will stay like this till we get mamo and turner back.... but dont forget rankin will be here soon so i think he will go to full back then instead of mcintosh.

playing in different conditions to the last 3 weeks later with the weather changed... be abit wet on the ground...need to hold onto the ball and win it in the forwards!

think we only gave one penalty away last weekend!!!! we have certainly cut this out of our game, great to see after the anderson era where it was full of pens

If anyone thinks Murphy is a centre watch the Wakey game again

Gaskell at centre, Murphy on the wing.
Darnell at full back

Simple

Same old Wigan

Brough would have been sin binned if he spoke like O'Loughlin did to the ref

Wigan did not deserve a point from that game

Re: On to wigan : Fri Jun 23, 2017 9:27 pm  

That was the worst performance I have ever seen from a referee! Sam Tomkins head is bigger than Birkenhead he isn't fit to lace Hardacker's boots....

Re: On to wigan : Fri Jun 23, 2017 9:54 pm  

Sorry Campbell- I take it back- you are NOT the most useless ref in SL.

Re: On to wigan : Fri Jun 23, 2017 10:10 pm  

Unbelievable, but I found myself wishing we had Childs referring us again.....

Enjoyable game, however one of the worst officiating of a game I have ever seen, for BOTH sides.
The ref lost the game and looked out of his depth.
Without the aid from the touch judges, I genuinely felt sorry for him.
The RFL need to do something to improve the standered of refereeing to avoid this happening to another ref... but that's another topic.

On the game we did very well but lost abit of structure when we lost Ridyard.
Our last play options in the last 7 minutes or so was baffling.
Both teams stuck to a hard working game plan and though Wigan's dirty side was on show in parts I think a point each was a fair result.
