Suppose not, but you know where that would end up!

Those academy players that you list Paul, are not genuine forward cover for a side that wants to compete at the top of SL. If we have as few as 2 or 3 injuries at the same time, we are completely up the creek.

Unless these kids get tested we'll never know.

We've hardly had any injuries in the forwards so the kids haven't had an opportunity. The one real chance we had (oldham) wasn't taken. We could have blooded 5 or 6 of the youngsters and still racked up 50 points

Dont stress the Mods off please, the board would go to ruin if they have to take time off

Wigan have brought through plenty of young forwards, who together with a couple of old heads in the pack, have done well, a couple have played for England:

Mossop, McIlorum, J Tomkins, Farrell.

Atleast we seem to be sending them out on dual reg. I read on the website Chris Green has scored seven tries in 5 games at Donny! Aldous, Morrison and Burnett are also on dual reg I believe. Hoepfully they'll get a chance once they return.

I can't imagine the uproar on here if Tickle was dropped for Green and Green has a stinker and costs us the game and maybe a play off place.

Green will get his chance as will Cunningham, Crooks and the rest of the young players if their good enough.

im not talking about someone like tickle been dropped but surely during the season the likes of green and kent can take the place of the likes of radders and dowes whilst there are no real injuries, surley thats better then throwing young ones in when there are injuries and our squad is depleted and you need results.
we must be the worst club over the past couple of years on playing yong players

Now that would be a signing I'd get exited about,even at his age.
