You don't know the answer to this; your knowledge of RL is obviously very limited which explains why you appear not to know about the three international hookers at Warrington.
1) Mickey Higham
2) Jon Clarke
3) Louis Anderson
have all represented their country internationally at hooker.

Paul Prescott has been picked whilst Paul Wood hasn't.
No much credibility in the selections there. |

| Quote ="inside_man"I think the only "average" players in Wigans team are Goulding + Deacon (ignoring Marsh, who wouldn't/shouldn't get in the side when everyones fit).
Leuluai isn't average but I just can't figure out where he should play. I rate McIllorum highly, he's a workhorse but his distribution is constantly improving, and he's got a handy kicking game.
I also genuinely don't think there are many better centres than Carmont in the league, I'd only have Bridge over him, and maybe King if he played in the centres + not the wing. I rate him higher than Shenton and the Senior of 2011.'"
I would much rather have Deacon in my team than Leuluai IMO. On Carmont he is a good solid player to have but i think Shenton is better. |

You call Carmont solid, but I'd say his attacking skills are his strength, he makes so many breaks down that left side as well as usually making any overlaps count.

Quote ="morleys_deckchair"do you think Hansen is better than Harrison?'"
No but I still just think Harrisons a prop. I think Hansen is just a workhorse, tackles solidly all day, pretty good support play, and he'll chip in with a few tries. Wigans version of Paul Clough.
So no, I don't think he's better than Harrison, but I also don't think he's far off, and both of them and pretty far away from average. |

Possibly because 3 of Wigan's 5 props last season, Feka, Coley and OCarroll - didn't play? |

Agreed - impresses me every time I see him play. I would take him over Mitchell or Tyke any time although Mitchell is looking more impressive this season. Also really like the look of Charnley from what I've seen so far. Wigan do consistently produce some good young players.
When I look at the respective first teams, although I know I'm biased, I think the Wigan players I would put in our side without hesitation are Sam Tomkins, Pat Richards and Sean O'Loughlin. I would also take Farrell as mentioned above. Apart from that I think I would choose all our players but as I said, I'm biased! |

I agree r.e Charnley, his finishing last week and during his spell with the Robins is nothing short of outstanding. Definitely one for the future. |

I think Lee Mossop is another one with a huge future, had last season interrupted with a couple of shoulder injuries, but he's had some big performances this year, especially when you consider he's been moved up to prop full time. |

Quote ="Galloping Ghost"I'd say Goulding, Carmont, Leuluai, Hansen, Coley and McIlorum are all average. Wigan are succesful by having a great coach and a great set-up throughout the club. Three outstanding world class talents in Richards, O'Loughlin and Tomkins. Saints carried players like Arnold, Jonkers, Edmondsen, West etc for many years. The same is happening at Wigan. I think your core three are better than most others.'" |
