If its not working out with speakman at 9, we have the option of putting flanaghan or lomax in at 9 with wello covering the fullback/loose postion.

With a bit of luck, TP might be fit.

Pete is obviously confident that we can handle Wigan with just 12 men.

But if you slot Wilkin in the missing gap then it's a decent line up. Gaskell is the big ?

Re: Attrition : Sat Mar 23, 2013 4:01 pm  

I think Brown'd move Turner to 6 over playing Gaskell to be honest.

Re: Attrition : Sat Mar 23, 2013 4:44 pm  

We have options to Cover all problems.

Wigan also have injuries so its just a matter of getting on with it.

We might even see lomax got to 9 to fill the gap left by robes. Wello to fullback and Gaskell to 6. Thoughts ?

Re: Attrition : Sat Mar 23, 2013 4:59 pm  

Wigan have got injuries in the forwards though. Their pack tonight is Crosby, McIlorum, Flower, Tuson, Farrell, O'Loughlin, with Hughes, Taylor, L.Tomkins and Burke on the bench. Even without Puletua, I reckon our pack should have the edge.

I don't know why there is this persistence that Gaskell is injured when he isn't. He has just been dropped, as has Makinson.

And deservedly so.

I would rather see Flanagan move to 9 before Lomax.

Wello looked decent on Friday returning the ball (except when he passed to Meli in the in-goal!), but he was missing in the attacking line.

We have seen what Lomax has done and I think I'd do a Saddened if Lomax isn't at FB on Friday.

Re: Attrition : Sat Mar 23, 2013 10:36 pm  

I think we might see the following line up, assuming that TP and Lance are out.

Lomax
Gardner
Jones
Percival
Meli
Turner
Wilkin
Perry
Speakman
Laffrancchi
Soliola
Manu
Flanagan

Subs

Wellens
LMS
Clough
Walmsley
