So glad Smithies has been awarded the 13 shirt 2 years overdue IMO
He’s putting in the yards in pre season. Seen him again today and he’s lot some weightCharriots Offiah wrote: ↑Tue Dec 27, 2022 8:55 pmMago is on the outer.josie andrews wrote: ↑Tue Dec 27, 2022 6:58 pm Don’t know why Isa has retained the 11 shirt when players like Mago drop down 12 places!!

My thoughts too when I saw the squad very thin on quality past 1-17 they sort out the centre issue which is fine but elsewhere lose fax or KPP as you say and it’ll be grim .DaveO wrote: ↑Tue Dec 27, 2022 7:54 pm That’s a very thin squad. There are 22 players with regular first team experience out of 29 and those 22 include nos 9, 11, 21 & 23 who in my opinion should not be in it either due being past it or just not good enough (or both) and I am not convinced no 19 should not be in that list. If Faz or KPP gets injured we are screwed in the back row.
Backs look fine with two centres at long last and their is enough props. I have not looked at what other compromises other teams have made but Wigan need to learn how to move players on regardless of how well they buy into the culture if they are just not good enough or need to retire.
Can Ellis play back row? Might be a better bet than Isa who’s body can no longer do what his head no doubt wants it to do.
