Will we still be playing them on the sunday at our place? If we do that means rangi will have to play 4 games in a week, thats a big ask for him, timing suits the goons more than us they have an extra day off and play an easier game before hand.

You didn't expect anything else did you.

Your in the wrong month. It's July not June. We play Leeds the Friday before and you play Warrington on the Sunday before but that could change yet for TV picks.

Ah my bad, that means you get two days off more than us though!

Well it's hard for Wigan to get round that really because you play mainly on Sundays and us Friday's. They are also hampered by having to wait until pitch work is done at the ground in the summer. Nothing to stop Cas bringing that Warrington game forward two days to make it fairer though? I actually suspect Sky will bring it forward themselves if your form keeps up to be well inside the top 8 come that time. I mean Cas v Wire seems to be an annual Sky game off memory.

I thought they were going to wait and see if both clubs got knocked out of the cup? Seems unfair to make two clubs play three games in a week

If wigan are playing 3 players in the exiles sqaud and probably as many for england they may well be postponing that game as well so we would be struggling to fit both matches in if not. Plus both teams will be fancying there chances in the cup.

They will probably move the game to the Tuesday like they did with the Catalans match last season.
