Is it me or are there 4 clones there? :wink:

Given the option I would just clone the '95 Grand Slam winning team. However with just three i would go:

Richards
Roberts
Connolly
Carmont
Ainscough
S Tomkins
Edwards
Platt
Riddell
Fielden
Hock
O'Loughlin
J Tomkins

Hansen
Feka
Leuluai
O'Carroll

Ok sorry I got carried away, no need to be pedantic.

By the way the grand slam was 94. :wink:






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

Just 3 or 4 'clones' would make a massive difference to our current team. Juts can't believe we once had a team filled with world beaters in every position.

Past Wigan players

Hampo/Radz
Robinson/Gill/Ferguson
Connelly/Iro
Bell/Miles/Ren
Offiah/Boston
Edwards/Paul/Botica/Kenny/Barrett
Edwards/Greg/Dobson
Kel/Barrie Mc/Cowie
Kiss/Dermott/Hall
Platt/O Connor/Lucas
BettsGoodway
Potter/Goodway/Furner
Hanley/Clarke/Faz

All would walk into the current squad/team.

I always love this kind of thread, nobody ever goes for players before the 80s. How about Ashton, Boston, Gee or Sullivan just to mention a few?

People tend to pick players they've seen play. Rogues will probably pick Jim Sullivan :WHISTLE:

Got to say this is a top signing

I think These positions are more important to fill than the FB spot.

Obviously I'd have Rads over Pat. but then again I've have Hampo over Rads.




Sorry man

I really should read things better :)

I'd take Sam Panapa thesedays. Mark Preston over Roberts, and McGinty over Lockers.

Hardly Wigan's best as well!
