    Default Wigan/Saints combined 13

    I watched the GF again over the holidays and to be fair thought it would be an interesting exercise to honestly see who would get into a combined 13 between the Grand Finalists at full strength being fair to our neighbours. Here is my effort

    1. Coote
    2. Makinson
    3. Naiquama
    4. Percival
    5. Grace
    6. Lomax
    7. Fages
    8. Walmesley
    9. Roby
    10 Graham
    11 Taia
    12 Bentley
    13 Knowles

    It was a difficult task with Welsby and Peyroux just missing out.
    Learned comment from The Don

    It's a horrible idea to be honest and I suspect they'd say the same.

    Jackson Hastings could possibly get in the 13 as for the rest of their players no thanks.

    What about them great young forwards that never take a backward step (until they are knocked on their arse), surely we would want them. Someone has to clean the toilets and polish proper players boots.

    I was taking the ••••. The only players I'd have from them would be Bateman and French.

    Wont lie i forgot about bateman. As much as i like french i would rather have someone like coote or ratchford at full back who can organise a line and be vocal in the pitch. French is just about pace and attaching the line. Coote and ratchford offer a more all round game

    I didn't say I'd have him at full back. I'd play him at stand off, as much as I like Lomax I think he'd be an upgrade on him in our team.

    I'd have that enforcer Morgan Smithies who doesn't take a backward step.

    He's not even in the top 20 for conceding penalties. You need to look much closer to home to find out who was number 1 in that list.

    And same to you Dave, you know me well enough. It's a bit of craic and that's all. Hope you're well and get plenty of work next year. The further away the better, I can recommend Nigeria , the only place I've had two armed guards in the car with me, but I wasn't going to hurt anyone.
