SW says that Tierney plays , on the WW website , and says he will get a good run of games, so he must be starting FB ,surely.
I think Sarginson will start instead of Gildart.

So for me giving Gildart his chance is more worthwhile than Tierney and I also have more faith in Sarge at FB and think he will offer more threat than Lewis. I am not sure Lewis has done enough in the friendlies and being the son of Bill Whizz should not make a difference.

It might just be my doom and gloom attitude at times BUT am i the only one who is starting to smell a rat with Sam's injury.

First he was going to be fit for England in October

Next he was going to be fit for Easter

Now he is going to be fit for the middle of May.

I am beginning to think NZW knew what they were doing releasing him early as they knew he would "Not be available to them" in the 2016 season .

Really hope i am wrong as there is nothing better than watching a fit Sam in a Wigan shirt .

A New season and nothing changes with the usual suspects!

I think what's best depends on sarge long term plan.

If the rumours are true that he is off at the end of the year I'd put gildart in and sarge at FB

If sarge is staying longer I'd have him in at centre and LT at fullback

EW - I too have my doubts re Sam

Well you are half right!

On the Catalans game, he (Wane) said: “I’m not expecting us to be at 100 per cent this Friday but we’ll be quite close to it. We’ve only had a week together as a team – and no other Super League side has had anywhere near that – so we’ll have to make the best of what we’ve got.”

That's not the full interview and misleads what he's saying.

Yes he doesn't expect for us to be at 100% (no coach would in game 1), but he does expect us to be close to it! and that's where we should be.

Whilst not arguing it is not the full interview, it does state and I quote again

We’ve only had a week together as a team – and no other Super League side has had anywhere near that

Now that choice was by design and not by mistake so if Wigan perform poorly, all any fan can reply is "We haven't played any games together" Which is what medlocke is pointing out

Other fans are all ready claiming Wane is getting his excuses in early if we lose. Of course if we win it will be a masterstroke. Friday night will be the decider whether it was right to go into this game with so many players who have not played a minute pre-season
