The most exciting game that season.

I never take anything you say into account.

If Wigan put less than 50 points on that line-up, then they would feel disappointed.

¿Qué?

OK then.

1. Lomax
2. Armstrong
3. Foster
4. Dean
5. Bainsy
6. Wheeler
7. Eastmond
8. Graham
9. Roby
10. Hargreaves
11. Ashurst
12. Dixon
13. Clough

14. Ellis
15. Emmitt
16. Frodsham

We wouldent need 4 subs, that team would win by 50 plus against your shower!!

We could put out a far better youthful team tbh....

No you could'nt.

It'd be far better in your typicall small Wigan brain but in reality the Saints youth are far superior. As are the first team.

We tend not to sign players like Tim Smith, Richie Mathers and Karl Pryce to play in our reserves though.

Fair point well made!

Being top of the academy table means little. We're talking about a competition toward which SL clubs are not 100% committed 100% of the time and containing a wildly disparate spread of talent, ages and attitudes. I've lost count of the number of "New" Murphys, Vollenhovens, Bostons, and Karaliuses which have amounted to nothing (indeed, it often works counterintuitively with kids of average ability maturing into top-tier talent - Wellens, Roby etc.), just as I've lost count of the number of championship-winning academy sides which have failed to provide the next generation of SL players (the much vaunted Hull academy that produced Dean Busby achieved zip). The truth is there's a big black hole sat between academy and first grade which consumes the majority of players. And it's never had enough to eat.

As long as it didn't lose to Celtic I'd be happy.

go on then name this team and then we can begin compare to two

Wow you lot really are deluded. You actually think your reserves who have won only 8 from 10 are better than Wigans who have won 12 from 12.

As for the guy who said about first teamers playing in the reserves and then named Mathers (who is and signed as first chose full back) Tim Smith (who can't defend for toffee and has played more games in the first team) and Karl Pryce (who is bloody awful and lazy).

Oh and let's not forget Ainscough and Tomkins have played more first team games. You also name Eastmond, whose played what 4 first team games this season? Same with the others you mention too, only Wheeler seems to get regular spots.

You may have the better first team but as far as youngsters go, ours are better; yours just look good because they're breaking into a successful team. We'll see how well you go once you lose Long and Cunningham.

This isn't about "reserves" it's about "youth", very different, when wigan, as said before play Smith, Pryce, Phelps et al. in their "reserves". Saints very rarely play senior players in the reserves.

Let's not go overboard, whilst our youth teams are doing very well, so are theirs.

We just have a coach who is willing to risk them in the first team more often.

Veivers
Ainscough
Marsh
Thornley
Charnley
Pryce
Tomkins
O'Carroll
McIlorum
Prescott
Hansen
Mossop
Tomkins

Farrell
Davies
Flanagan
Tuson

What's up petal? Embarrassed that the team you posted would get whooped?



I would be if I were you.

Adding Karl Pryce shows that you're clutching at straws. Classing a Bradford and Union reject as your own youth !!

Nice try though.

Mark Flanagan would win the game single handedly for Wigan . . . he has had first team experience at Halifax
