There are several Wigan players I'd take - Davies, Gildart, Marshall, Williams, Clubb, Farrell, maybe Escape, but please not Tautai. I'd obviously take Bateman as well, but didn't include him for obvious reasons.
Liam Marshall could find himself without first team action now Dom Man is back...and Tom Davis is better than Marshall. He could be a prospect with Lineham looking like he'll be returning to Yarkshire in 12 months time....
I'm pretty sure the club haven't taken steps to lengthen Lineham's contract, whereas I think the club might be looking at nailing Charnley down with an extension very soon. What Marshall lacks in Lineham's build he makes up with blistering speed.

Prop forwards that have left Wigan since about 2013 have not moved on and maintained or bettered their wigan form. Mossop Dudson Burke Prescott (ret injury) Crosby Taylor (maybe) Maybe they were so passionate about playing for wigan that anything else is just a dissapointment. It does appear strange that so many young ish props leave wigan at a young age and then cant replicate that level of performance. It used to be that props got better with age. I would prefer to give Tautai a miss. If somebody puts a hit on him he drops the ball every time it comes near him for the rest of that game.

I said this when we signed Crosby, he and most of their forwards props in particular aren't anything special, they just work very well in wigan's system.
