So has Kevin Brown but you wouldn't class him as a Loose Forward. I think Barrett has played at Loose Forward but the position doesn't suit him, there is alot more tackling invovled at Loose Forward and although he can tackle Wigan want him at his best in attack were he is far more effective.

Playing Barrett at LF is a possibility but Wigan don't want to be moving players around too much, O'Loughlin is a good Loose Forward and Barrett is a good Stand Off.

i dont know about the team, but i'd have fletcher as captain, or possibly orr cos they're the only ones who i've noticed really shout at the team and get them organised. my opinion of o'loughlin has changed, but i still don't think he has the leadership qualities of a captain.

Captain must be Lockers.

He took enough stick when we were playing poorly so now surely deserves some praise for his leadership now that we seemed to have turned the corner playing wise and produced our best performance of the season so far against the Bulls?

Now that the fast ageing , worn out Scully is crocked again don't be too surprised if he lands the GB armband as well!
