Perhaps we should consider putting Jack Wells on the bench against Hull, he seems to have worked himself back into form nicely.
get rid of flower, greenwood and escare and bring in two tasty signings

I see what your saying but can’t see us making anymore signings this season

If memory serves Flower, Escare and Greenwood are all out of contract anyway. With Joe Burgess, Lockers, Isa and Leuluai looking like this is their last seasons at Wigan and the likes of Gildart also looking for new deals should give Wigan plenty of scope for bringing new players in should they need them

Terrible conditions but several players stood up well. Wells looks like he might make more yards than Partington or Smithies down the middle, Kilner definitely would but ateotd they are considered better defenders. Almost every forward out there out performed Greenwood. His head is just not in the right place. There is no way that he should be near inclusion for the first team.

I think we have the following off contract at the end of the season: Escare, Gildart; Joe Burgess; Leuluai, Flower, O'Loughlin; Hankinson; Jake Shorrocks and maybe Hastings. There is going to be a chunk of salary going to be available for new signings and hopefully contract extensions in some cases.

Manfred played. He carried fairly well through thick mud. It just was not a wingers day. One " error" when he dropped the ball backwards but the ref said that he pushed the ball forwards into himself before going back which is a new one on me.

Manfredi did carry well, but he didn't seem interested in passing at all when he had a couple of opportunities to do so. Agree with the comments about Greenwood, I thought Kilner and Byrne did well, and good cameos from Pearce-Paul and Barron.
