Gardner, Wheeler and Eastmond hopefully all to be fit so we can finally field a full strength backline. Front row picks itself to be honest as does the bench. If we can field this 17 the goons will be brought down to earth.

I'd have Emmitt on the bench rather than Ashurst but other than that I'd agree.

However, have a horrible feeling that at least one of Wheeler and Eastmond will not be in the 17, and possibly both.

Dont think either of Gardner or Wheeler will be in the 17.
Just hopeing Eastmonds ok.

If Kyle's fit we have a chance, we'll really struggle without him, that said if he's not 100% this is just a league game and not worth rushing him back if he's not ready

Eastmond is fit he was chomping at the bit on Saturday regarding this Sundays upcoming game. Wheeler was precautionary and if Gardner isn't ready Armstrong or Foster can fill the breach.

Reading an article in League Express this morning in regards to Eastmond, and it pretty much said that unless he was 100% fit he wouldn't be risked.

Here's hoping he's only 99% fit.

If as you say Wheeler, Eastmond and Gardner are back:

Wellens
Gardner
Gidley
Wheeler
Meli
Pryce
Eastmond
Graham
Cunningham
Hargreaves
Puletua
Clough
Flannery

Fozzard (decent stint last week, deserves a spot)
Dixon
Ashurst
Moore

Lightweight bench, so may be worth starting Dixon with Hargreaves or Puletua on the bench. Potter seems to like starting TP though and him and Graham always give us a good start.

If Wheeler isnt fit stick Legohead in at centre move roby to LF and bring Ashurst onto the bench

Don't be surprised if Wello doesn't feature. He really looked to be struggling with injury in the second half last friday.

Wellens got hurt right in front of us early on,then got another belt in the ribs from their try next to the posts,looked in a lot of pain at the end too.

Bloody hell. Not again! That will be his fourth session of injuries this season. The man is on his last legs!

If we are without Wello, Eastmond, Gardner, Wilkin, Wheeler and (I'm sure I've forgotten someone!) then we are screwed on Sunday! Just let's hope we lose gracefully!

Hey up Saddened wherve you been?

As I've said on Red Vee, If Saints have Graham and Roby in the team, we're always in with a fighting chance.

Add in TP to that little list - massively important to us now.

Agreed. I'm hoping the team is as follows:

Wellens
Gardner
Gidley
Wheeler
Meli
Pryce
Eastmond
Graham
Cunningham
Fozzard
Flannery
Clough
Roby

Moore
Puletua
Hargreaves
Dixon

It'll be interesting to see the squad and who's in and who's out as there are question marks over several players, but if we get that team out it is more than capable of beating Wigan. With players like Graham, Roby, Puletua, Pryce and Cunningham in the team, we will always have a reasonable chance against anyone.

O'Loughlin will not be playing for wigan according to rumours of his quad strain keeping him out for 3 weeks.

No matter what we think of the dirty, high tackling Oompah Loompah that will be a big loss for you men.

Some of his tackling against the surrender monkey's was brutal. He's also been touted as their best player this season. Good for us.

He's been outstanding this season.
Add to that missing from Wigan pack will be Hansen, Mossop and O'Carroll, so it's not only Saints that have injuries.

Never heard of them???????????

Doesn't really compare to the likes of Soliola, Wilkin, Faasavalu, possibly Gardner and Eastmond etc Rogues

I'd have Hansen and Mossop any day.

Add Deacon and Phepls to our list of injuries, but we'll have to manage.

How do you know what Soliola is like? He was average in the four nations last season, looks like he can tackle but is slower than a tax rebate.

Ask Leulaui, his international team-mate, he might be able to tell you.
