You'd just really need the hulk I suppose as you won't tackle him... from the kick off just give it to him and thats it. He may fail a drugs test though. I wouldn't have a team full of superstars they'd outdo eachother. Hancock wouldn't be bothered. Wolverine may pop the ball and I think Mario and Luigi's defence will be asked a lot of questions defending high kicks. As Mutant Ninja's are banned (Rugby League Rules 4.5.23 1972) the bench will be full of artists, flair yes but speed no!
I'm surprised to find no place in this team for Dan Dare and Digby. Those of us old enough to remember the "Eagle" will recall that not only was Dan Dare the only world saving super hero to come from Manchester, but his sidekick, the ever redoubtable Digby was from WIGAN. Mind you, that means he should be playing for us!

However. With Tommy, Dudson, Prescott, Flower, Fielden (not that he's really played a part!), HH and Paddy still out. Our depth is gonna be tested to the max. One things for sure, i'm not looking forward to missing Tommy's defensive strength against Wire. Briers is gonna have a field day with us.
Tommy out for 8 weeks they say. That's not so bad then cuz time of injury + 8 weeks = Wire fixture. Good luck Tommy, all the best & lets hope 8 weeks is all it takes...
Wallace and Gromit are also from Wigan. Although, apart from Richie Mathers, dogs aren't allowed on a rugby pitch other than to amuse fans(like the day everyone remembers a dog in the school yard). Gromit wouldn't fit in. Now, Wiganer Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf he could produce some magic when needed
