i really like micky mac but he looked know were near ready for super league last week , i cant remember who said he looked like he needed a few weeks in under 20 s it might of been rogues the other week ,but he defo did nt look upto to speed ,

I'm inclined to agree, but it was his first game back in the senior squad so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Either way of all the players who could miss out through injury it looks as though we'll miss piggy the most, and I never felt I'd say that.

Coley playing is the big one for me! Awesome!

Start with McIlorum and Deacs for me and bring leuluai on 10 mins before half time!

Still trying to convince my friends of that. He's not the best in the business, but he's a good player. It's noticeable when he's not on the field.

I know its the biggest derby for us in a long time..but i really hope were not taking any risks with s.tomkins..theres more than this game to go.

Riddell is a big blow. gutted

There's a few (not many) of us on here who have been trying to educate the masses of non believers for over a year how good a player Piggy is.

It was his fitness that let him down last year, you can't deny that.

He has outplayed every hooker he has played against this year though.

Amos
Pat
Carmont
Gleeson
Goulding
Sam
Tommy
Fielden
McIlorum
Coley
Joel
Bailey
Lockers

Presscot
O'Carrol
Mossop
Feka/Deacon

Hoping that Coley and Sam are both fit enough, but its a shame to be missing Riddell!

I'd like to see Feka come back in but, i think Deacon will be required to cover for Leuluai/McIlorum.

Re: 19 Men Squads : Wed Mar 31, 2010 2:29 pm  

looking for an omen and we actually beat warrington without phelps and riddell so maybe we could do the double and beat saints without the pair aswell. For me we need to keep tommy and sam at 6 and 7, against warrington we looked more threatening when we had deacs at 9 so thats the way i would go, id go with.

1. Roberts
2. Goulding
3. Gleeson
4. Carmont
5. Richards
6. Sam Tomkins
7. Leuluai
8. Fielden
9. Deacon
10. Coley
11. Bailey
12. Joel Tomkins
13. O'Loughlin

14. McIllorum
15. O'Carroll
16. Prescott
17. Mossop

A deal leg can take a few weeks to heal. hope we get phelps back soon. I think feka might get a run out this week. Its going to be won and lost in the forward battle this one. Hope feka comes back to make his mark

And the reason you're not getting too far is because you seem to think he is better than he is (awful grammar but you get the point). Best at Wigan certainly but that doesn't take much. Overall I'm happy with him now but he's certainly not exceptional. His biggest asset up to now has been staying fit (unlike Buderus, who is plainly in a different league in terms of ability but has been dogged by injuries). Let's hope he's back soon before Micky Mac proves he is in fact dispensible!

EDIT: By staying fit, I mean his availability week in, week out.
