Hopefully Joel isn't too long term.

Out of that I'd go-

Escare
Davies Forsyth Burgess Marshall
Williams Leuluai
Tautai Powell Flower
Sutton Farrell Lockers

Nuuausala Navarette Isa McIlorum

Gregson and Bretherton to miss out

There is a lot of pace in that backline, lets hope the forwards lay a platform them

I hate these alphabetical team sheets. How hard is it to put it in squad number order? (aimed at SL clubs not the OP!)

Agreed, though I wouldn't be disappointed to see Willie ISA in place of Joel, Sutton would be just fine.

with Isa on the Bench he can come on fresh for lockers

Decent squad, how great is it to have McIlorum back!

Re: Wigan 19-Man Squad : Fri Apr 21, 2017 4:17 pm  

Dragons have 2 more injuries in their starting 13.and no returnees-not whinging about this by the way just stating facts.They will either have to play a forward-Garcia -at centre or -what I would do-play the exciting prospect Albert at full back and Gigot at centre.

It makes for an interesting game. The Catalans side has been pretty impressive recently and it could go either way.

Inu somehow escaping a ban is huge because he's a cracking player and he's caused us problems in the past.

**Edit** just noticed Inu isn't in their squad. Injury I presume.

I'd go for Gregson before Isa as he is a more natural replacement for SOL as it is certain he won't play 80 minutes.
TT from the bench and about time that Frank earned his corn from the ko.
Wouldn't be surprised if Powell plays at half for part of the game to give TL a bit of a breather.
