Quick turnaround for the easter period, same 17 again for me..anyone else? Hopefully they will have gotten bags of confidence from that and show what they can really do vs Wakey, would be good to show up Jon Kear.

We'll need to rest a few. I would bet on Roberts and Marsh to make an appearance

I dont think we were that good today so wouldnt at all be surprised to see a couple dropped. With the way that Maguire operates I can certainly see Charnley being dropped after being all at sea for 2 tries. I would also like to see Roberts get a game at full back too if he is fit again as I am still far from convinced about Sam there.

Almost the same 17 apart from I'd bring in Tuson for Hoffman to give him a well deserved rest. Plus it would be good and well deserved for the ginger pearl to start.

I'd also start Tommy at #9.

Prediction

It will be like watching paint dry

What ever the side. We must get off to a good start IMO. We'll no doubt tire against Wakey as the game goes on, and I want us to have built up a healthy lead to compensate for that. If wakey lead and get a sniff, an easy game on paper get's whole lot harder. Kear will have Wakey up for this one.

Cue comments about watching paint dry.

Roberts
Goulding
JT
Marsh
Richards
Sam
Finch
Prescott
Tommy
Mossop
Farrell
Hansen
O'Loughlin

Lima
Tuson
Coley
McIlorum

Worth a try or not?

That's why we need to start with our best starting HB's and hooker. Rack up the lead, get their heads down and then see the game out.

Consistency is the key for me. That team has to many changes and that's been a major problem for us as of late.

Try and keep almost the same 17 but tweak it.

Same team as today but with tuson in on the bench, micky mac will be rested he is carrying a couple of knocks

We also need to kick on. Its about time we put one or two sides away. We are getting left behind in the points scoring for and against on the league table and as such we really need to rack up a couple of big wins.

Wakey would be the perfect start after what john kear said about lima and wigan.

Infact as the team talk madge should just play an audio of kears ciommentary of the leeds game

We have the squad depth to make any necessary changes. I would like to see as close to the same team as we played today.

Important we back up with a big win on Monday.

wakefield currently beating cas 24-28 after being something like 24-4 down

Full Time Cas 24 - Wakey 28

Think we will see a try and big game from Lima.
I'm taking a paint brush, let's all take one, win the game and then give Kear some stick.

Yeah worth a try why not. If Finch cant have a good game against Wakey then its got to be a taxi for him, sorry.

I personally think we should utilise two or three of Tuson, Goulding, Marsh and Roberts for a game with such a short turnaround.

Harsh on Josh - he was outnumbered on both occasions, and had no real choice but to go for that intercept for the first one.

1. Amos Roberts
2. Darrell Goulding
3. Josh Charnley
4. George Carmont
5. PAAAAAAAAAT
6. Sam Tomkina

14. Liam Farrell
15. Paul Prescott
16. Lee Mossop

let macca have a break, let H have a break, he was nackered tonight and looked like he was limping in the first half

The team on Monday will be:

Sam
Josh
Joel
George
Paaat
Finch
Deacs
Coley
Tommy
Lima
H
Hoff
Lockers

Mossop
Faz
Preccy
Tuson

Travelling reserves will be

Goulding
Micky Mac - Not dropped but rested due to picking up nocks on Friday

Sam (why Amos? He's not proved hes worth-not good enough)
Charnley (need more game time at 1st grade to improve)
Tomkins (needs more game time at centre)
Carmont
Richards (needs more game time as he's only recently back from a big injury)
Deacon
Finch (just about getting into it. Needs more game time)
Lima
Tommy (needs more game time as a 9)
Coley
Hoffman
Faz (looks great so far. Deserves more minutes)
Lockers
-------------
Prescott
Mossop
Hansen (needs to step up as comp for positions increases)
Logan Tomkins (sooner see him debut against one of the weaker SL teams. McM took a few knocks v saints-could do with a rest. Also I'd like to see how Tomkins performs at first grade)

Wigan Warriors 19 Man Squad v Wakefield

Sam Tomkins, Darrell Goulding, George Carmont, Pat Richards, Paul Deacon, Thomas Leuluai, Michael McIlorum, Andy Coley, Harrison Hansen, Joel Tomkins, Sean O'Loughlin, Paul Prescott, Jeff Lima, Ryan Hoffman, Brett Finch, Lee Mossop, Liam Farrell, Chris Tuson, Josh Charnley.

Does anyone else think that the win on friday, may have taken its toll on the players, given that they're playing two games in the space of four days?.

They should be able to cope, but as others have said, a few were looking tired towards the end. Maybe they should be rested and the likes of Logan Tomkins given a shot.

Also, wakeys win against cas will give them a massive confidence boost. This games going to be tough.

I'm all for keeping the same team, have some consistency.

No, all of the Wakey players have had a game of high intensity on Friday and i expect our players to be in better condition than them due to our coaching staff and specifically Mark Bitcom.
