I would go with the same 17 as last week to

The way Mossop played against Saints the last time we was at Knowsley Road id opt him over Flash this week but thats just my opinion.

So would I. Just to have a bit fresher legs. He was awesome in the Reserve Final last week.

If you indeed care...

*Most probable*

For me Mossop gets the nod over Flanagan.



Much as I like Flanagan, he is off down under, whereas Mossop is here to stay and is the future.

Eastmond in the is an interesting one, correct me if I'm wrong but he's played the last few games in that position and to me doesn't look half bad there, however it'll be interesting seeing him come up against Carmont and Richards that'll be a real test for him and hopefully he'll be a weak link for you guy's with those two running at him.

Flanagan made 51 tackles earlier in season at knowsley rd. He should play. As should Mossop. Joel should miss out.



Funny how those wanting Flanagan dropped have only started since he signed for Wests.

He will be up against Gleeson.

Yeah he played in that position against Leeds, Catalan and Huddersfield, in attack his speed and agility creates many gaps for Meli to run through... Or wouldnt be suprised if Gilmour plays there though for the reasons you stated above but he'd be against Gleeson and Roberts... however Eastmond isnt easily run-over, reminds me very much of Burrow... straight for the legs and in addition Eastmond is very strong... should be interesting to see if he goes with Eastmond attacking wise or Gilmour defence wise

Damn never could get tell my left from my right.











Yeah tough all to make whether to go for a defensive stance or more of an attack orientated one, either way your gonna miss Gilmour's adaptability next year.

Joel makes too many mistakes yet, for me. He's the new Gaz Hock. Brilliant, but has you looking to the stars and asking "WHYYYYYYY???!!"



Mossop and Flanagan, for mine.

Flanagan is another Locky, Hansen type forward (big defence). Mossop offers something different (good yards). Its non brainer for me whether Flanagan is at Wigan next season or not.
