In the gf Wigan had 3 props on the bench. Jenkins can do some second row if required. O’Connor can cover 9 and 13 and McDonnell can shift to centre if we pick up an injury.
That is a lot bigger and more powerful starting pack and bench than we have had for a few years.
We then have sangare and TNW in reserve with Bentley and Littlewood in reserve for back row.'"
McDonnell to centre good grief FYI Jenkins was one of the fastest 19year olds over 100m in Australia he could probably give McDonnell half a pitch start and still beat him over the other side a good grafter ill give you.
This year I’d focus on the pack, a Prop (if Lisone goes), a Second Row (with Gannon leaving) and if we get the chance for a really good hooker I’d tell Ackers he’s free to go as he won’t be getting a new deal.
Next year I’d look at the backs, a Winger (with real pace to replace Hall), perhaps a Strike Centre unless Newman really continually hits his straps.
Otherwise it’s time to bring the kids through, they will be there or thereabouts ready, and we need to find out what other spots we need to look at so we have got to play them somehow.
He`s not doing well with injuries these last couple of years. Nevertheless a very good prospect that I hope we have a deal in place to take him back should he return from the NRL.
Gannon got the Stevie Ward vibes, talented but too injury prone, can’t see him having a long career, maybe dodged a bull it as if he had resigned it would be in a massive long term deal.

He didn't sign a deal that would have kept him here, why would he have signed up to one that commits him to returning?
