One thing guaranteed from all 3 is a desire and leadership that with so many youngsters in is lacking!!

Sam and mm though weren't playing at the start of the season either when we're playing quite well imo but we seem to have taken a massive dip in the last few games and the only change to the spine has been lockers

I wasn't disagreeing with you, I agree totally we miss Lockers. The point I was making was when your backs are against the wall players like Lockers, Sam and MM can get you out of it, we are in a bit of a hole currently and it's horses for courses, they would all make us considerably stronger in my balanced opinion!!

The problem regarding Lockers is still to come is when he does retire unless at age 50 he's still sitting on the interchange bench then the club have an issue,at the moment the hole he has left is huge i shudder to think what it will be like when he's gone for good.

For me Tommy and George arent working as a pairing unless aimless kicks and not talking to each other is progress then i think a little tinkering needs to be done,move Powell into the halves and give Tommy a run at hooker i dont know.

Something needs to give a little bit of a change with the limited players available by next monday,doomsday scenario we could be looking at a 5 game losing streak,lets hope that doesnt happen.

Lockers isn't the "problem". The "problem" is the old one that Leuluai isn't a scrum half and never was!

His best position is hooker and at the moment all Wigan have is the situation of having nothing, but expecting Williams to pull something out of the proverbial hat.

Castleford KNEW that and marked Williams out the game, literally onto him in a flash. Saints will do the same (if they want to win). Losing Shorrocks is massive for Wigan as it means the club has no option but to continue as it is

Your first para is the"Gordian Knot" I was referring to in my post earlier Foz

I hope SW's brain is working overtime to sort the future LF problem?
Anyway SJ I hope your Colombian shopping trip was good? Did you get asked, as I did in Jamaica a few weeks ago, "are you looking to buy anything inparticular today sir?"
Being addressed to as "sir" by someone "floating in a tin can" was rather novel to say the least!

Powell to 7
Lulu to 9
MM to 13
Lockers to coaching staff

Job sorted

Still sailing will be following the Martin Borman Nazi passage to Rio organised by the Popes Odessa Pigeon Tossers and Wippets foundation Hope WW 3 doesn't kick off till I get back. Cheers????????????

Oh dear the internet will cost!
Are you single handed my rowing the Atlantic?
I went with p and o, never again, it was like Butlins on speed!

just to clarify - im saying is lockers the problem because it would appear his absence from the team causes our attack to fall to pieces.

how do you solve a problem like lockers?
