I hope he has a quick and good recovery just a good job we have got prescott match fit.

He's been fantastic, it's a massive blow.

There's quite a bit of pressure on Prescott to emulate O'Carroll's performances which should bring out the best in him.

Ummmm....hes been solid, but i wouldnt say fantastic.

Correct!

He's been alright, but he hasnt been our best/most consistant (Unless average consistant counts) forward all year like some say.

Prescott's the better option However we want All Wigan players fit and contesting for a place!

Hopefully Eamon will make a speedy recovery.

Ben Davies may well get a chance now, good news on Hock and Pryce also.

Erm no.. O'Carroll has been our best prop all season.

What's all this talk of the next prop to come in?

We have 4 fit frontline props at the moment



If one of them were to get injured I think Hock could make the plunge for a game or 2 and give Mossop his chance in the 2nd row

We have played with 3 props on several occasions under Noble so I don't think it will be too much of a problem anyway

In your opinion.

Big blow to Eamon and the team. He had been given his chance and earned himself a first team spot & is very unlucky with this injury. I wish him a speedy recovery.

However this does mean that another prop forward who has been knocking at the door for the last few weeks gets to keep his place - Paul Prescott. He had a good game at Salford and will be looking to build on that. He will no doubt be wanting to emulate O'carroll's performances in the first team.

Good news about Hock and Pryce.

Maybe so, but come on he isnt up against much competition is he?

True but even if he isn't we shouldn't put the lad down.

Sure?

Of course.

Gutted for him

Going to have to step up a lot if he wants a new deal

He does and he will. Salford was only his second competitive rugby league match in two years and in both games he has been played out of position as he prefers to play at centre.

We need to show some patience and play him in his proper position before we see the best of Karl Pryce. Once he finds his feet though Karl Pryce will be a valuable asset to the club.

At the moment I think it would be a bit silly to go throwing him in at centre even if it is his preferred position

3 or so games on the wing and if he is good enough then put him at centre

Your not allowed to say stuff like that about Pryce don't you know? How dare he be given time after two seasons out?

On a side note we officially have our three hated players for this season. Last season it was Higham, Colbon and Calderwood this season people seem to hate Mathers, Goulding and Pryce more than any others in the squad?

Can’t really see what use some people think knocking Pryce will achieve.

Smith Phelps and Coley running Goulding and Pryce close surely

Phelps has been out of sight out of mind but yeah Smith is pushing them hard. Maybe we can take it to new levels this year and have four players on our most moaned about/hated list......

To be fair though Mathers Smith and Coley (bar the last couple weeks) deserve it

Probably Phelps and Goulding too

Why?

I think he would get caught out for pace and he seems to pick up knocks as well

Not to mention we have only just sured up our right hand side defence so to change it around again I think is unnecessary

Neh
