| He will end up at Hull next season, Wane obviously doesn't rate him.

| Not sure he is the type of prop we need now with Green and Bowden doing so well.

Safety net of a four year contract underneath him.

| Yeah - bit of a strange one. I'd have put him not far off Mossop, but he's ended up behind Dudson, Flower and Crosby.
Maybe hasn't settled - or maybe that is why Wigan are so good? Their relatively unheralded players are better than most clubs' bright young things?
Mossop is off next year - but on the other hand they've signed Powell from RU.
Chester Wednesday - 2 year deal, with the option of a third.

One of those cases where it is hard to be certain which side would hold the option. Having paid a fee, I'd [uguess[/u it'd be in Wigan's favour.

Add that to the fact, that he got too big for his boots!

| I can't believe that Luaki gets a game in front of Taylor. Some strange logic at work in Wigan.

| Scott Has played well in all the games he's played for us this year, we have a policy at Wigan to not 'over play' our young players, rotating players in and out. You'll see the likes of Sam Powell, Logan Tomkins, Dom Crosby, Jack Hughes, Anthony Gelling [When Fit, Gil Dudson, Tom Spencer, George Williams [And anyone else i'm missing drift in and out of the squad with regularity. I wouldn't be surprised to see Scott back in the team for the Match against Wakefield, by all accounts, he played a stormer at Leigh at the weekend.
He had played in 4 of the previous 7 games before this weekend, so he's getting plenty of game time. I think with Lauaki coming back into the squad after about 16 or so games out has had a little to do with him not playing over the last couple of weeks, he's been in good form too.

If this policy is in place, are the likes of tomkins & charnley exempt from it?

That would be Russell. I'm sure I read somewhere that he was apparently going to try his hand in Oz (but I could be mistaken).

Matty Russell, he's in Australia.
Lauaki needs game time (he's played very well since he came back from injury) but he can't play on a dual registration.
Taylor is second behind Ben Flower in number of games played by the Wigan props this season.

| I thought Lauaki was really good on Sunday night.
Bit strange that you'd pay a fee for a player and then send him to Leigh, but when there's Mossop, Prescott, Lauaki, Flower, Dudson, Crosby and Taylor I guess you can rotate them a little bit and keep players fresh for the business end.

Tomkins and Charnley are both established first team players, with over 100 apps a piece [150 in Tomkins' case Now should there be a dip in for for either player, they may very well see their spot go to a young player waiting in the wings.
The players I mentioned have less than 30 apps each. With the exception of Jack Hughes, who has been an ever present for us this year, apart from this weekend.
We have a squad that is, as is quite large, able to sustain to rotating of younger/inexperienced players.
You can also factor in Iain Thornley who has played every game this year - mostly due to the fact he has come on leaps and bounds, and partly because we aren't blessed with an abundance of quality centres [Same across the entire league really.
Edit he hardly deserves to be dropped, just to bring in a young lad who may not be actually ready for the step up just for him to 'get a sniff in' as you put it.

Edit: Upon further inspection, Charnley is on 78 apps according to Bilko's stats page. But having scored 22 tries this year [Tomkins has 30 he hardly deserves to be dropped, just to bring in a young lad who may not be actually ready for the step up just for him to 'get a sniff in' as you put it.'"

| Taylor is a big head, been sent to Leigh to learn some humility. No doubt he has talent and will be a future star for Wigan, but he has a lot to learn about fitting in with your team mates.
