Wigan Warriors today announce the 19-man squad for Thursday’s Betfred Super League Round 21 game against Huddersfield Giants, kick-off 7:45pm.
Sean O’Loughlin is fit again whilst Romain Navarette returns from suspension for the clash with the Giants.

Liam Farrell is unavailable after sustaining a shoulder injury in last week’s win over Warrington, whilst Dan Sarginson, Joe Greenwood and George Williams are still unavailable for selection due to injury.

Wigan Warriors 19-Man Squad
John Bateman, Tony Clubb, Tom Davies, Morgan Escaré, Ben Flower, Oliver Gildart, Gabe Hamlin, Willie Isa, Sammy Kibula, Tommy Leuluai, Liam Marshall, Romain Navarette, Sean O’Loughlin, Liam Paisley, Ollie Partington, Sam Powell, Taulima Tautai, Sam Tomkins, Josh Woods.

I'm surprised Tony Clubb is included. He was really struggling with that hamstring on Friday.

According to Wigan Today Wane will be including either Partington or Kibula. I would have thought that it was a year too soon for Sammy but he may have lost the bow legs and the puppy fat since I last saw him play. I imagine that it will be Ollie who though not as massive is probably further forward in his development. There again I am often wrong.

Imagine he will drop out for Partington or Kibula.

Just looking on website and Kibula is actually our biggest prop in the first team. I’d be looking to give him a game tomorrow and if he goes well play him against Saints, the bloke is massive so I can’t see many dominating him regardless of age

Size doesn’t matter does it?



Seriously I’m looking forward to seeing Kibula play but I worry about his stamina at SL level. Try him tomorrow but I wouldn’t risk him v Saints yet.

No Bateman so Paisley in the centres, squad looking a bit bare, we need a few bodies back asap

Gonna be a tough ask to win tonight,very suprised to see Kibula in the squad, the little I have seen (and not for a while) he struck me as a little tubby and unfit and heavily reliant on a huge size advantage he won’t have at senior level. I guess he has kicked on? We need some extra size in our pack so I hope he goes well.

About time Locks retired only did 20 minutes again, came off injured.

Surely not, According to most he is going around again
