Strongest squad all year.
Dixon/Gaskell to miss out - would start TP/Graham at prop with Flannery/Wilkin/Soliola in the back row to ensure we have 2 props on the bench (LMS/Clough) since Wigan will have 2+2 (Prescott/Lima/Coley/Mossop) and we need to make sure we don't become lightweight when Graham/TP are spelled.

Exactly what I'd do too, but can't see Royce doing it unfortunately. Although he did against Hull KR so there's always a possibility I suppose. |

Is that your team or what you think Royce will do?
I'd much rather him swap Flannery for TP/LMS but I think you're spot on, depending on Clough's fitness after his run out. He's not like to manage more than 20-25mins after so long out.

Has Clough had a run out for the reserves?
I agree we should keep two props on the bench and start with a back row of Wilks, Flanders & Sia.

That's what I think he'll do, personally I'd start 2 props on the bench. |

He's goign to be a great asset against wigan, I think.
His ability to win a couple of extra yards in contact will come in very handy against a defence that moves up extra quick. |

He's a workhorse, exactly what we need back in the side. |

Wigan fans will tell you that Fielden had a very good season for them last year, and Cloughy matches up to him stat wise.
Almost identical tackles per game and metres per carry but with Cloughy missing fewer tackles, making three times fewer errors and giving away half as many penalties.
He's a tremendous prop IMO, a real quality player to have around the squad. |
