It says in the Times he's struggling for fitness.

If Pryce lives up to his billing and Ainscough does also we could be seeing Wigna's future wing partnership tonight for the first time!

What billings that?

I wouldnt expect much from the lad tonight.

I would if he doesnt score 5 tries tonight bin him off. Offiah cud score 5 in a game so if hes not to that standard then he aint worth keeping.

Whats the odds of a him getting a 5 try debut

Wow wow i'm not saying tonight mate. Read my previous post history re Pryce i know he needs time and i doubt he'll be as good as he can be tonight.

But if in the future he fulfils his potential him and Ainscough does also these two could be our wingers for a good few years that’s all i was saying.

It's the first time we'll see them together tonight and the first of many performances I hope

good stuff he does, ive herd hes a real talent. Id rather take a chance and throw him into the deepend; let him develop then start with phelps. Knowing wigan they will let him go like they have with the majority of their good youngsters, eg) robinson, wild, brown.

Oh right, sorry pal(I must really start reading the whole thread

)

Yeah I think he can be a decent player for us, It all depends on how he returns to the full time playing after a serious injury. We have seen how it can ruin careers(richie mathers).



Can you see him playing the full 80 tonight? and if he plays well keeping his place?

Given what people have said about his fitness in the friendlies I cannot see him playing a full game tonight. Might see him off the bench for the last 30 minutes.

Hopefully we're in the position where we can bring him on with the result not being in doubt but cant see it happening



Did he play the 80 against warrington in preseason? I cant remember.

I know he game off the bench in the other two friendlies.

I can see him having a good game actually.

First SL game in how many years?
Home debut
Needs to prove some people wrong after some pre season games!

I think he'll go all out for about 60 mins tonight and then get taken off. I can honestly see him having a cracker tonight. The task is next week if he does and maintaining it over a period of time. Same goes for the whole team if we win tonight.

We all know Noble rates him so if he has a big game he's got more of a chance at keeping his place over Ainscough when Paaaat returns.

Phelps won't be back next week and if both Pryce and Ainscough play well tonight one is gonna have to drop out and realistically who can you see it being?

Good luck to both Pryce and Ainscough for tonight as they are the future of this club and both have the potential to take us back to the top of the summit.

I can't wait to see the lad in action tonight. He's always looked very good when he's played in the friendlies and looks superb on those clips. He's fast and as strong as an ox. He's fiery and aggresive and to me thats always half the battle with youngters in that you need them to show abit of fire sometimes and not be over-rawed by the situation.

He'll do very well tonight i reckon and make it tough for Noble to drop him(although he still will as soon as Phelps is back).

Best player by far tonight

If we learned anything tonight it was this lad is good enough to play Super League. Sayin that if Phelps n Richards are fit next week Nobby will probably drop him

Well done to the lad for his debut try.

Could've been a hat-trick but for forward passes or Gansons wonky eyes

Good old Ganson - I wish e wud fek off to Oz like his mate the clown

Well personally i am shocked he had a good game, never thought he had anything about him that would cause Sl defences problems.

Another referee and he would have had hattrick tonight. I think the first was ok and cpouldn't believe he brought it back but the other was forward.

His enthusiam was great to see, wish the others were the same.

Excellent debut





He will be dropped next week.

How's about this for the Wigan team we'll never get to see.

1. S Briscoe
2. Ainscough
3. Goulding
4. Aspinwall
5. Ashton
6. Tomkins
7. Robinson
8. Farrell
9. Newton
10. Prescott
11.Wild
12. Tomkins
13. O'Loughlin

14. Higham
15. Hock
16. Mossop
17. O'Carroll

OK, I know they're not all world beaters but they would surely play with a passion and pride that you Wigan supporters aren't seeing at the moment.

he was quite possibly outstanding.
im so glad i got 28 on my cheek at beginning of match.
he even played with an injured ankle. shows he's no puff.
well done anyways i knew he could do it.
i had no doubts. (:






+ did anyone notice that the scoreboard stayed as wigan v wakefield for half of the match

?

Reminded me of Brian Carney alot in terms of the way he plays the game. Alot of power and acceleration. A must stay in the team now.

You can just see it can't you.

Superb debut from Shaun, he was at the heart of so many things that we did well. His breaking the line and intelligent ball play was fantastic to watch.

Agreed, great feet aswell - Jason Robinsonesque may i add!
