He very nearly played last week in the semi, he didn't have the protective boot on in the dressing room before the match. He must be very close for some involvement in the final.

He had it on when he was in the South Stand bar prior to the game.

FWIW he wasn't wearing it last night. I reckon he is really close to playing. Could be a tough decision for SW.

don't worry, we're Wigan and the RFL will allow us to have 5 subs as long as we name SOL as one of them.........

Re: Lockers : Tue Oct 01, 2013 8:32 am  

A half-fit Lockers on the bench is surely an option. Logan sat on the bench for around 63 minutes on Friday and I hate it when we do that, it completely wastes a sub. In these tough arm wrestle type games that Saturday will no doubt be it's much more worthwhile to stick another forward there. Even if Lockers can only manage doing 2 15 minute spells it's better than having a hooker or half sat there and only chucking them on when the game's already won or lost.

It says on the Wigan today website that the tear has healed and he's in contention, but Wane still says he's a major doubt. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he leads the team out on Saturday.

At the Mos awards on SSN he said the boot came off today (Monday). No way would I start with him, but it depends on how he reacts with training and running, if he can come through with no adverse reactions it may be worth a risk to have him on the bench at the expense of Logan.

I saw a quote yesterday about Wane having to tell players they have lost their place if he returned, maybe it was the way it was worded but it came across as he would be playing.

I think he will play and the team are training this week thinking he will play according to Smith
