Not sure your point our weakened pack matched Wigan's weakened pack.
If we play teams with their full strength pack and we have 3 main players out it will be hard, but thats the same for any sides surely (look at Saints against Warrington).
Our pack is no where near our biggest problem.
I'm confident we can match most packs in the league, even with 3 players out, Saints maybe the exception, but it's more the way the team is coached than the players.
im a little baffled with Radfords thought process with regards to the backup
Cast your mind back to last season when Brown and Wynne came into the team, both played very very well considering, weve seen repeatedly with Fash and Matongo they dont quite do it, my question is why are they both picked above Jack Brown?
Id like to see Brown and Cator used instead of Matongo and Fash i think both are more assertive and busier

Both have been injured, both were due to play their first games of the season in the reserves at the weekend.

Me too. Fash will never be good enough and Masi seems to lack aggression, maybe he should have been sent to Leigh instead of Bienek.
It's really sad that it's been years since we developed a player that has cemented a place in the first team. Who was the last one, Shaul/Bowden?

Sadly our backup is poor . Masi and Fash nowhere near good enough.

for me you can throw lane into that to, if brown was fit would have been nice to see him get a game, also am sure Bienik if not on loan could have added a bit more humph, over the next few weeks we will start to get players back, am still backing Radford BUT if we are still struggling when we do then his place becomes unsure,
