Wigan will have Andy Farrell and Mick Cassidy in their side for the first time this season for tomorrow’s Challenge Cup quarter-final against Wakefield.
Farrell has been back in training after knee surgery, while Cassidy has recovered from a shoulder operation.Sean O’Loughlin should play at loose forward, but wing Chris Melling could be out for six months with knee ligament damage.York will be without their Australian centre, Aaron Wood, for their quarter-final at Huddersfield on Sunday, due to suspension. Substitutes not used: Warner (gk), Elliott.Referee: M Jones (Chester).. The back injury which keeps the American Rocco Mediate out of this week’s Players Championship in Florida could harm Brian Davis’s hopes of a Masters debut in a fortnight.

First prize is now £800,000, which still leaves it £200,000 behind the record winner’s cheque offered in the HSBC World Match Play championship.Europe’s Ryder Cup captain Bernhard Langer has appointed Sweden’s Anders Forsbrand, 42, as his vice-captain.. But because ranking is determined by an average of points won, Davis would fall below Mediate if he misses the cut at Sawgrass – and if three others go past Davis he would miss out.The event’s prize money was increased yesterday, by $500,000 to a total of $8m (£4.36m).

However, the security of a second goal eluded Millwall, Bevan denying the excellent Cahill with a superb stop.Wimbledon expect to be out of administration within a month but their prospects of extracting revenue from a sceptical Milton Keynes public are not looking rosy.Last night’s match attracted only 3,037 spectators – the smallest gate since the move to the National Hockey Stadium – and one third of that number came with Millwall.Wimbledon (4-4-2): Bevan; Darlington, Williams, Hawkins, Puncheon; Oyedele, Barton (Kamara, 72), Chorley, Jarrett (Smith, 38); Herzig (Mackie, h/t), Gray. A win is a win.”Wise was involved from the 18th minute after an injury to David Livermore and pulled the strings effectively in midfield but the home side resisted until the 42nd minute, with the 6ft 6in former Southampton goalkeeper, Scott Bevan, marking his home debut with two good saves from Paul Ifill.Then a sweeping move along the right flank ended with Cahill giving the visitors the lead, adding to his two goals against West Ham.

Neil Harris sent Kevin Muscat away and the full-back’s low cross was perfectly delivered for Cahill to slide the ball home from a distance of eight yards.Without a goal in seven matches, Wimbledon tested Andy Marshall only once through Barton’s shot just before half-time.
