Close season recruits Gabe Hamlin and Dan Sarginson both named in squad

Wigan Warriors have today named the squad for the first Betfred Super League game of 2018.


The Warriors face Salford at the AJ Bell Stadium on Friday evening, 7:30pm kick-off.

Shaun Wane names new signing Gabe Hamlin in the squad with the returning Dan Sarginson also included.

Joe Burgess (thigh) misses out after picking up a knock in the pre-season game against Leigh. John Bateman (hand) is yet to return to full training following an injury picked up on international duty whilst Sean O’Loughlin (calf) will also sit this one out.

All three are expected to be fit to take part in the Club’s upcoming New South Wales tour.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Salford Head Coach Ian Watson has named his 19-man squad for the Red Devils opening Betfred Super League fixture against Wigan Warriors at the AJ Bell Stadium, 7:30pm kick-off.

Jack Littlejohn is in contention to make his Betfred Super League debut for the Red Devils while Luke Burgess could also make his first regular Super League start for Salford.

Robert Lui and Gareth O’Brien are also named to give Watson options in the halves.

Ryan Lannon will serve the last game of his three-match suspension. Manu Vatuvei, of course, misses out after picking up a serious Achilles injury earlier in the week.

Me too, but it doesn't have to be in the first game of the season.

If Hamlin is fit he should play. If he doesn’t, what’s the point in signing him.

Meds, I find myself agreeing with you more and more these days. One (or both) of us should be worried :D
