No thread about the match yet??



I suspect we may come second, though as usual, I'll not be putting any money on it.

These conditions have to favour the visitors, suspect they will blow us away in the opening 20 with fast flowing rugby. Be good to see Bateman back at Odsal.

Purtell is the glaring omission from the 19



Injured? Or is this an indication of what Lowes was saying earlier in the week, that he would only pick those who were in 'right frame of mind'?

My team for tomorrow:



1. Brett Kearney

2. Elliot Kear

4. Matty Blythe

34. Joe Arundel

38. Danny Williams

17. Lee Gaskell

7. Luke Gale

14. Manase Manuokafoa

19. Adam O'Brien

15. Adam Sidlow

11. Tom Olbison

33. Jay Pitts

18. James Donaldson



30. Jamal Fakir

24. Alex Mellor

36. Jordan Baldwinson

16. Danny Addy

I think we might get a result tomorrow.



Wigan can sometimes have problems against lesser opposition, as seen this year. As a result, I think Jimmy may get his 1st win.



Here's hoping Wigan are a little complacent tomorrow

I'll put that down to a combination of sun stroke & all day drinking.

Kearney and Foster to sit it out for me

Out of our 8 defeats this season (Including WCC and CC), 1 was against so called 'lesser opposition' and that was after a 4 day turnaround.

Well, they had a tough game last week and have another next weekend so may be inclined to rest a few..

, though even the kids they bring in seem to come good every time.

Not against the mighty WTW they didn't. Got taught a lesson in how not to be complacent.

I think Purtells form has slipped recently. Anyway Jimmy said he would rotate all squad and Purtell has played every game this year.

my sanity this season.
