I've got three pie eater fans coming over on Saturday and staying in Barnsley to sample the hospitable atmosphere that we offer on an evening out .....


I'm hoping they get so p*ssed that they oversleep and miss the game to save a repeat of last weeks "mishap"

Looking at this one, it should be a home win.
Hull beat Wigan, we beat Hull so, Trinity all the way !!

That is how it works, isn't it ?

Sadly, although there will be a response of sorts after last week, it's hard to see past a fairly comfortable Wigan victory

I’m very nervous about this fixture.

I hope we are not investing all our efforts into a response to last week.

If we win fantastic but it will take a huge effort to turn them over and with a 5 day turn around to what is a season defining game the following week I’m hoping we can keep all the key players fresh and fit for the Magic round.

Introduce them to Wellington Street sometime Saturday night, then go find them sometime Sunday.....





Mind you, its all changed since I was a lad......

C. Kendall. Say no more. I wish Crash the timekeeper was young enough to be on duty

It certainly has.....
Thankfully.....
But I still wouldn't take them down that street........

Don't agree, maybe for Saints or Wigan but not for us. We have to attempt to play every game to win, as much in the hope of catching a team off guard as anything else. Daft as it sounds we've nothing to lose against Wigan, so no nerves. Likewise professional though Wigan are at present they are not the team of the early 90's, and even they had lapses. Best will in the world when you play a team that's just been royally stuffed there is a tendency to be complacent.

Toulouse on the other hand will be totally geared up, if we don't win against Wigan we will be as nervy as hell and could easily blow it. Especially as the crowd will undoubtedly back Toulouse. To me winning against Wigan is every bit as valuable as beating Toulouse as IMO one leads to the other.

I don't believe you can coast a RL game, nor do I believe taking it easy stops injuries or fatigue. I'd rather our key players go to Magic with a rousing effort against Wigan, win or lose in their minds than spend this weekend skulking on the side lines.

The only way I can see us getting close to Wigan is if They looked at our feeble effort last week and decide the can rest quite a lot of their players. However Peet seems a very proffesional coach. I expect him to put out his best side and ensure they play at their best. Best I am hoping for is a valiant fight with plenty of effort

Have to say im with john as good as it is to beat wigan even if weplay at out best we will struggle to bt wigan which theres no shame in by the way but if we are at our best v toulouse we wouldmost likley win which would be massive for us.pkay fringe lads give newley signed evans a run out and look too magic weekend

Got to say that Sky Bet only giving us a 12 point start think a great many people will fancy that and pile on Wigan

I think we'll see a much better affort but we won't get anywhere near Wigan. I'd also be tempted to leave a few out with one eye on the week after. Give guys like Jowitt, Walker, Aydin etc a run out, hardly novices but guys that have been on the fringes. Give them a chance to claim a regular spot.
