Its funny but a starting front row of Bullock, Powell and Singleton, with Clarke and Clubb on the bench to rotate sound great and could provide a good base for the backs.

But what do I know.
Not that I’m doubting you, but we keep being told Lam isn’t picking the team so surely they’re falling out with the wrong person?
Harry Smith is the only player that Lams been told from above they want him to start every game, I think I posted about that when the rumours of lam not picking the team first popped up.
You did, but then others have posted that Matty Peet is selecting the teams.
Both can’t be right?

Was it Peet, Wane or IL that told Lam to play Smith?

That line up sounds like a faded boy band from the 90s

"but they made it clear", out of curiosity, who exactly are they?
Im sure you know I cant say, but Im sure you will have a decent idea.
I don’t know anyone who would want to coach Wigan if the attitudes are you are told what to do.
To be a good coach you do things your way, thought that was the whole point.
This has only been the case for 2 or 3 months

If nothing else they could give the young lads a much needed rest.

We’re f**ked either way then. If Lam stays or goes.
Future looks bleak

Despite the results we were poor at the beginning of the season, however the last 2 or 3 months has seen us go considerably worse.
I commented at the game on Friday how much poorer we are now than we were at the start of the season.

And poorer than everyone else! I just watched The Superleague Show, and you could take almost any one of those sides (even Leigh!), and say, I'd be made up to see Wigan score tries like that. But we don't.

Isn’t this just the truth Wigan are a shambles at present I managed to grab the Hull derby highlights while I know it’s highlight s for a reason but when was the last game played like that between Wigan nd Saints?a long down time ago,it’s about time t he sport realised its in the entertainment game and started to provide entertainment.

Because sure as eggs is eggs this isn’t entertainment at present.
