Wigan were well off it today apparently and still could've won.
I'll wait for the squads to be announced before making predictions but if we're unchanged or even better we have more players back then it should be a fairly comfortable win.

Wigan lost Liam Farrell before the game and O'Loughlin early doors today both with calf injuries so could be interesting how they go the next few weeks if they don't get them guys back with Hull on Friday and then us at Headingley and Cas the following week, could be some more dropped points coming up for them. I know they cope better than others with injuries but those two guys in particular could be a couple of injuries too many even for Wigan.

That'll go some way to explaining why Hudds did so well yesterday then.
I'm shocked at O'Loughlin getting injured though, it's not like him at all.

If those two are missing at Headingley then I can see us winning quite easily.

not sure too bothered about them missing todd flanders, but farrell is a blow, very underrated often overshadowed by bateman but farrell in my opinion is more important to them, and always plays well against us.

Not sure yet if they'll miss the Leeds game but sounds like they miss Hull this week. Some talk on the Wigan board after their game yesterday about how tired the team looked right from the start of the match even though they've had a 9 day gap between games. Wonder if it's the start of a tired spell from getting up for the WCC like what happened to ourselves a number of times when we appeared in that game. If so it's really bad timing for them with Hull, us and Cas their next 3 games.

McDermott OUT - Peacock & Sinfield IN : Thu Apr 13, 2017 10:30 am  

Does that sound daft?

Makes sense to me.

Yes it sounds daft

Sounds pretty daft to me. See Saints for what happens when you put a legendary player with naff all coaching experience in charge.

Im 100% in favour of a new Coaching set up & would have no problem with these 2 joining in some capacity but definately not as overall Head Coach(es).

Re: McDermott OUT - Peacock & Sinfield IN : Thu Apr 13, 2017 11:21 am  

sound daft, neither of them wants to coach. mcdermott will be still in charge next year unless our season collapses again.
a name nobody is mentioning as a potential head coach, is ryan Sheridan, been a number 2 for like ten years and looks a good coach, think he is a big part of castlefords success this year, maybe ready to step up to head coach, and has good history with GH, could be a shrewd move to get him on board.

Re: McDermott OUT - Peacock & Sinfield IN : Thu Apr 13, 2017 11:40 am  

Sheridan wouldn't cost much at all either. Reyt up GHs street.

I'd let Kev or JP become our new head coach anyday. It doesn't look like either of them have any interest in becoming a head coach just yet. Maybe in afew years time one or both will give it a go.
