Warriors Announce Squad To Face Broncos

Post by josie andrews »

Wigan Warriors Head Coach Shaun Wane has named his 19 man squad to face London Broncos at the DW Stadium on Sunday afternoon, 3pm kick off.

The Warriors welcome back Sam Tomkins, Pat Richards, Thomas Leuluai and skipper Sean O'Loughlin to the squad, all four were left out last week for the clash at Widnes. Elsewhere George Carmont (pictured) returns to the squad after recovering from a broken thumb while Paul Prescott is also named after a couple of outings for the South Wales Scorpions following a close season operation.

Lee Mossop misses out with an ankle injury but Harrison Hansen is named despite picking up a slight hip problem in the loss at the Stobart.

no place for Hughes seems a bit harsh - or is he injured?

Because Carmont is fit again?

I don't think it will be any reflection on Hughes but rather he's had a few games and with the senior player back time to take a rest.

Hughes was only ever filling in for Carmont who has rightly got his place back as he needed a game before Warrington next week. Hughes did an okay job but certainly nothing special and he was poor last week against Widnes. I certainly do not see him as a centre in the long run but it is great that he can fill in there. Hughes had a decent run of games and has played far more than he would have expected already this season.
