It is a shame we don't have a back up stand off otherwise I would have thought Monaghan would have done a great organising job at hooker, but we need someone to replace him. Bridge can obviously do a decent job (shown as Cas) but i don't think that is a long term solution as i would say he is a better centre

bad times

lets hope he is back to pick up his winners medal on 29th August

depends whether that act would inhibit his rehabilitation

What a pi$$er - he has added a little extra to the team that has been lacking in previous years.

Good luck MH - Wembley awaits !!

For me it has to be Clarke at 7 to partner Briers with Monaghan at 9, i hope we don`t let Chris Bridge anywhere near the 6 shirt as he has proven that he isn`t a stand off, he has been dangerous at right centre so leave him there with Grix at 4 for now and King on the wing as he`s never a centre.

Didn't Bridge put that little kick in for Vinnies try that drew in two men ?

I ate a vegetarian lasagne once.......it doesnt make me a vegetarian though...

Mickey being out is a big loss, but remember - In Smith We Trust.

Matt King scored a try at centre last week, it doesn`t mean he is any good as a centre.

im saying it took vision and skill, showing that he has potential

Eddie Windass showed great vision and skill to get Roy Cropper`s account number and pin for the cash and carry but it doesn`t mean Eddie is a great thief, he got caught out just like Chris Bridge has been caught out when he`s been tried at stand off.

I think Bridge is a good stand off, he's capable, very capable there. You just don't fancy him to be consistant there. He was very influential on Saturday, setting up Louis Anderson & Vinnie Anderson tries & a good ball to Grix in the build up to the other V.Anderson try. He's certainly no worse that Monaghan there, he's better individually and his passing is no worse.

He's a very good, potentially great centre, so I'd prefer to see him there obviously.

what about grix to 6 monas to nine king centre carney wing jonno other centre and hicks wing?

Too many changes.

Keeping consistancy & allowing partnerships to form where possible is key.

well t/s we trust sure he will have a solution

Time for one of the reserves to step up. Alex Thompson?

Louis has played at hooker for the NZ Warriors but I don't
think he enjoys the job. Get well soon Mick we need you.

I think he will be a big miss. But, if we believe all the Clarkists on the board, he will be amply replaced.

How does that work? All our good form this year has been on the back of Clarke starting and Higham as the interchange hooker. So who do you think will be able to "amply" replace Higham in that combination?

From his performances in the reserves that I have seen this year he has earnt the opportunity to do so.

Bad news for Wigan.
Monaghan to second hooker, and Bridge to stand off.

Nah,
Six weeks to go rogues,a lot can happen in six weeks??!!

Besides we might even sign lee jackson..

That's almost as embarassing as you saying Higham has been a poor signing for us.

Well he won't be able to use his arm.
