Hastings is a fair bet with him being the captain and you forgot Bateman.

No chance the way we are playing we are no where near the big clubs

Didnt know hastungs was capt and totally forgot about bateman

If Tanginoa is picked, I wonder where Sheens will play him?

Wigan will be without Hardaker this week as well.

Well we had our chances against Cas and should have won that game, but we didn't because we weren't smart enough.
You would have to think that if both teams have players missing, Wigan's reserve pot is a bit stronger than ours.
Being a realist I can't see us winning this game - unless we come out with the attitude we had against Hudds.

HKR covid outbreak so their game is off, they played Wigan last week, wonder if our game will suffer the same fate.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Wigan played the COVID card because of many players they will have missing.

surely they'd have to prove it?

Going to be an anxious few days now at Wigan waiting for this weeks test results to come through after playing Rovers last week, ps we aren't stumbling, we've been poop all year, we're just thankful we somehow scraped those wins at the start of the year, Castleford is probably the only game we've put a decent performance in

Wigan announced no positive cases after the weekend testing

Good to hear. Game on then.

Might be off as crisis meeting regarding England game. They might postpone matches for this to go ahead. For me if it can’t be helped then it should be. However if you can play despite this game you should do.

We carried on playing last season through the crisis with so many disruptions and players missing, what's new this season? Carry on should be the message.

Brad Singleton (Wigan) – Grade C Headbutt – 2 Match Penalty Notice

One less to worry about. I’m still not sure which way this game will go

Westerman & Lyne both made the 19-man squad.

The squad is: John Bateman (Wigan Warriors); Daryl Clark, Mike Cooper, Ben Currie (all Warrington Wolves); Tom Davies (Catalans Dragons); Liam Farrell (Wigan Warriors); Luke Gale, Ash Handley (both Leeds Rhinos); Morgan Knowles (St Helens); Reece Lyne (Wakefield Trinity); Jonny Lomax (St Helens); Paul McShane (Castleford Tigers); Tommy Makinson (St Helens); Mikolaj Oledzki (Leeds Rhinos); Joe Philbin, Stefan Ratchford (both Warrington Wolves); Sam Tomkins (Catalans Dragons); Alex Walmsley (St Helens); Joe Westerman (Wakefield Trinity).

What does that say about us if we can’t beat Wigan with all the players they will have missing. Hull KR did them last week, NO EXCUSE for us this week.

But we have key players missing too in westerman and lynne..and maybe Tanginoa

Walker to LF, Crowther/Eaves (if he’s still here) to rotate with Wood, Batch to replace Kelepi and Senior in for Lyne.

Why does Kelepi need replacing?

If he gets selected for the Allstars team !!

Looking on the Wigan board, they are not too confident of their chances on Thursday. One is even predicting another 62-0 thrashing

Ah, right.

Fifita May get picked yet. Made team of the week. Thought did well but his stats pretty impressive
