Some of them are still arrogant. Someone has said if they could get there first 17 out they would easy beat us by 20+

Some of your fans on here are saying you will win 20+ tomorrow, does that make those fans arrogant too?

Don't take it so personally, there is nothing any of us on here can do to influence the game but it is part of the fun having a guess who will win.

For what its worth 2 full strength sides IMO would be a close game.

It's tough to be arrogant when you've lost 7 games in a row and have been kicked from the Challenge Cup by a lower league team

Exactly, kinda obvious why the arrogance hasn't been as evident of late ...

Just basing it off round 12, Wakefield beat a fellow top 8 team by 20 points, and Leigh lost to a top 8 team by 22 points. Is it arrogant to suggest something similar could happen?

I think you've missed the point. I agree with you. please re-read the posts.

I think this will be our hardest game of the 3 up coming games. They will be targeting this game and their attacking first half performance against us at Belle Vue was the best I've seen against us this season. Hoping for a win but wouldn't be at all surprised if we lose.

If you thought their first half was the best youve seen against us, you must have missed the Cas game and the pre season match agains the same opposition.

I wouldn't go so far as saying any game is going to be comfortable, Leigh were solid in the first half against us and I'd expect that at home they're going to try their best to get a win. I do think we have enough to win the game, but I can't see it being the big win we all hope it will be. I'm more inclined to think it will be something like: Leigh 16 - Wakefield 22

Scoring 16 would be a vast improvement on our last four games!

Wakefield 28-15 opposition.

When Wakefield have lost this season, the average score has been;
Wakefield 15 - 26 opposition

Makes me laugh when people goad the opposition supporters to say something and then accuse them of being over the top and arrogant.
Leigh have some idiot posters there is no doubt, but so have we.
On the whole I quite like Leigh and their supporters. They've tidied their act up a little since they were trying to bully everyone in before promotion.

We should treat this as a 'must work hard to win' rather than a 'should win'. We have a long and illustrious history of losing when we are starting to get some form together, especially against the teams below us.
I'm sure the lads will take it seriously and we can enjoy pulling away from that middle group in the league rather than slipping back in to the dog fight.

The Warrington win last night has made the table very interesting just below us. All three teams directly below us are currently on 11 points. If we can pick up a win tonight, and Catalans lose, we will start to see a bit of a space open up between us and the lower teams.
The Wigan lose also means that Wakefield are the only team outside of the top 4 who have a positive points difference

After going 20-0 up after after 14 minutes 2 silly errors in 4 mins has got Leigh back into the game.
Luckily Finny has his goal kicking boots on.

12-22 after 25 minutes.
