Wigan v Hull KR preview
Wigan Warriors will look to make it two wins from two over the Easter period against the Rovers who squandered a 20-0 lead against rivals Hull FC on Friday.
Luke Waterworth replaces Ben Flower in the squad and the hooker would make his first team debut if selected.
Flower was substituted with a leg injury on Good Friday and didn’t feature in the second half of the game.
Speaking ahead of the game, Warriors Head Coach Shaun Wane said: “Ben (Flower) has a tight hamstring, we can’t risk him but he should be ok for next week.
“It’ll be two busted teams on Monday and it’ll be down to who wants it more”
Rovers make the journey to the DW Stadium early next week with a mounting injury list after Chris Clarkson, James Green, Albert Kelly and Josh Mantellato all picked up knocks.
They are replaced in the 19-man squad for Monday’s game by Will Oakes, Kieran Moran, Joe Wardill and Joe Cator, with the latter handed a first team squad number after impressing for the City of Hull Academy and in recent training sessions with the Robins.
Wigan squad: John Bateman, Joe Bretherton, Greg Burke, Josh Charnley, Tony Clubb, Anthony Gelling, Oliver Gildart, Nick Gregson, Dom Manfredi, Lee Mossop, Sean O’Loughlin, Sam Powell, Dan Sarginson, Matty Smith, Ryan Sutton, Taulima Tautai, Lewis Tierney, Joel Tomkins, Luke Waterworth
