Not far off what most fans would have chosen.

Just read on Wigan forum that Farrell isn't playing and I don't think Bateman is available.

This gives us a chance. But I still fear on the outsides with our inexperience and their danger men who are the most potent in SL.

I’ve just put money us at 4.5 to 1. Ambitious

I would have started Clark over Holmes but that aside its a fair enough team. I wonder if we have developed a kicking game yet? I expect not. Starting front row will struggle after 10 minutes or so I think, Harrison needs to be pulled before he's too gassed.

I think we will score some points tonight, I just hope we can keep them out enough for it to count.

I would at least try and cover that bet with the 14 handicap. If we win its win win. If we stay within 14 you get most of your money back.

Who's put money on cooper scoring?

Me. Cooper anytime at 5/1

Sums us up perfectly, when Sky's first shots of us were our players mincing up and down the pitch, with their knees in the air.
All we needed, was Morecambe and Wise singing "Bring Me Sunshine" in the background

Now the Wire!

Butterfingers?

Ive got money on him tearing us a new one.

Just you watch Mulheard or Davis monster him

Not sure that was a chargedown.

Why the boos for Cooper?

Some of our fans are pondlife

2 tactical kicks down Field's throat

Our backs seem to be doing all the drives

No real questions asked of the Wigan defence. The confidence is shot.

What is the point of a linesman? Both feet in touch.

I think your first post in part answers your second.

I've moaned about it for seasons...our props taking a drive on the 4th so often. The first time we get near their try line what happens on the 4th where does this come from ? It's happened over 3 coaches. If the backs are taking it in early from kick returns then the forwards are to take it in on 3 or 4th maybe but our hooker has to make the call on the 4th when were in an attacking area not to waste the tackle on driving it in Williams or ratch have to demand the ball or call the play. For the love of God use common sense not rugby by numbers !!

Mulhearn putting in a lot of effort

Muppetry

Been a bit unlucky to be fair tonight

Blowing a chance to be 12-0 at half time.
Loosing the ball in the tackle 3 inches from their line.
Playing the ball to noone and they score.

Queue the crumble, sadly.

Been a decent showing, but this is damage limitation now for the points difference.

This is when we collapse into farce.

Jesus!! When it doesn't go for you
