You hear coaches talking about “the grind”, “winning the ruck” and “the process” etc, etc, waffle , waffle, but how many think of a tangible strategy game by game to undo their opponents ? Watching Hull.K.R last week I had to take my hat off to Willie Peters, he went there with an obvious plan to pepper the right side of Wire’s defence with a little kick to the corner at the end of just about every set and it worked a treat. Wigan have a couple of midgets on their wings, and with Fuisitua back along with Handley we have a distinct advantage if we kick to the midgets. Momorovski is a dud but his one attribute is that he seems able to climb and catch a ball well enough. If you’re reading the forum Brad, there’s no charge for this advice. We have absolutely no other advantage over Wigan apart from towering above them out wide. It would be foolish if we don’t exploit it.


Getting into the Wigan 20 to enable a kick to the corner will be the big problem

:lol: We need a game plan to enable our main game plan.

From the players we have available I reckon it'll be

1. Miller
2. Fusitu'a
3. Newman
4. Momirovski
5. Handley
6. Croft
7. Frawley
8. Sangare
9. Ackers
10. Goudemand
11. Mcdonnell
12. Martin
13. O'Connor

Subs
14. Bentley
15. Lisone
16. Donaldson
17. Johnson

Our pack looks so weak with Oledzki, Holroyd and Smith all missing. This is why I personally thought sending both Ruan and Hudson out on loan was a poor move by us our pack is already a small group and sending 2 of our big bodies out to play for other clubs is a mistake for me. We can even afford to carry Edgell on the bench with all our forwards missing and no doubt Fusitu'a won't last a full 80 mins but he'll still get picked ahead of Edgell if we can keep within 12 points of Wigan I'll be shocked.

Our lightweight pack is now a featherweight pack.

With the squad picked you could upsize with TNW at 13 and Littlewood in the mix. I don't see the need for a small guy at 13 when we have a small back row already. We definitely need to avoid having too many of the smaller guys on the field at the same time, but its probably unavoidable given the very limited minutes of Lisone and Sangare.

Peter Smith's suggested starting pack is Sangare, Ackers, Donaldson, McDonnelll, Martin, O'Connor. Is it possible to think of a group with less yardage in them?? Maybe Bentley for McDonnell to complete the set. I really hope that's wrong. Or that I am proved wrong!

It's ironic that this is where Rohanball may have actually been effective (in it's best form). We can't compete through the middle in this game, we'll be absolutely obliterated. Trying to be connected in defence and play around them with smart movement and off the cuff rugby is probably the only chance we have of keeping the score line respectable.

No Ash Handley tomorrow

We’re going to struggle for metres that’s for sure.
