RD 21 | Wigan Warriors (A) : Fri Aug 20, 2021 5:47 pm  

Interesting one this, we’ve got a hell of a lot of players out, a full team perhaps, but the lads are coming off a grinding win v Huddersfield.

Likely that Walker, Hurrell, Handley, Gale, Oledzki, Mellor, L Sutcliffe, Smith, A Sutcliffe, Broadbent miss the game, Martin and Prior return, with all loanees called back (Edwards, Tindall, Hall)

Myler; Briscoe Newman Edwards Briscoe; Lui Mclelland; Holroyd Leeming Tetevano; Martin Gannon; O’Connor.

Dwyer Prior Thompson Walters / Donaldson / Vuniyayawa

Hall Tindall

Don't think we'll have to worry about facing Willie Isa....

Shorrocks late with an elbow too yet stays on!

Not sure we have too much to worry about facing any of them, they look very poor at the moment

Hope you're right , but I'm not convinced that we have nothing much to worry about on Wednesday.Wigan will be busting a gut to right tonight's wrongs.Leeds are currently broken, scrambling to get a decent squad together.Dwyer played from his sick bed we are down to the bare bones and the young guns such as levi and cory hall just don't have the physical development just yet.Although Wigan have a blunted attack Leeds have a canny knack of not being able to defend any sort of lead.A case of blunted attack verses a leaky defence who's likely to come out on top?

The match review panel could be pulling an all-nighter... Isa on a load of charges, Bateman possibly charges for abusing ref/disputing ref's decision, Shorrocks elbow, Hastings for the high-shot on Coote. It makes you wonder if Wigan will be as down to the bare bones as us on Wednesday...

Walmsley's cut head looked to be from a swinging arm while he was already tackled too.
Think we will struggle unless we have a few returning but Wigan do look poor atm.

We’ll get bullied next week. They are a poor side, but you just know they’ll beat us. Apart from Isa (surely they daren’t not ban him), Wigan won’t have anymore missing.

Wigan should really be missing Isa, Bateman, Hastings, Shorrocks, Smith. But I doubt it’ll come to that.

Massive game this one to help secure our play off spot. Presuming Prior is back and Cam Smith isn’t? Expecting this to be a physical one, I’d start the game with as much size and muscle out there as we can.
