don't know what other fans think ,would it be worthwhile giving escare a run at the number nine spot he would inject some much needed pace like other teams have in that position

Most 9's are getting through 50 plus tackles a match. I can't see Escare having the same sharpness if he puts in that sort of work. I personally don't know where I would play him, think Lam said something similar pre season.

A tortoise would inject more pace and cause more problems than Powell

We need to keep him for when Zak reverts to type?

The worst part of Morgan's game is defence. Just because you have pace doesn't make you an effective hooker.

I’d like to see Zak at right centre with Gildart/sarge on the left with Morgan at FB. It won’t happen though. If we go off form Gildart would be dropped to accommodate that but still we are 3 games in a lot will happen

One bad game doesn't mean Gildart should be dropped.

His defense is not good enough to play hooker.

Furthermore, Wigan have a history of moving players out of position and it rarely works. We should stop.
