Nothing will change for a longtime down here because the board is weak and useless.The 1 redeeming thing about this weeks game,is that KR are down here,thus putting the crowd over 7000.To win this game,wire will have to score 30+ and I just cant see that happening.both Dobson at hbhfand Cooke's kicking game will tear us apart.

enjoy the journey anyway.

So, are you going or not??

Be a late rush for the Warrington tickets this week.....either that or joining the queues for the derby tickets.

Our biggest problem (Warrington) is when we play well we still struggle to be able to break through defences. Sometimes we seem to lack ideas and creativeness.
We also suffer from not knowing which team will turn up - world beaters one week (not for a long time now) or a team who hasnt played together.
Our defense suffers - we have built a first 17 but have no depth. If anyone gets injured then we struggle because our kids arent good enough and we dont have sufficient journeymen players who can hold the fort and give commitment

One day it will change and we all keep hoping. Come down on Sunday and lets enjoy some banter. Its still a great day and a great game and we do appreciate good play

Look on the brightside... we played Bradford after they was on the rear of a spanking against Wigan, which we didnt really think was good.

We won comfortably... and in all fairness they never looked like winning.

For some reason i think this really will be a hard contest for you.

Why do they insist on playing Riley at full back? I thought he went well on the wing, but he's rubbish at full back and his confidence must be taking a severe battering at the moment.

Riley says he prefers to play at full back. That's where he played for the academy but he's too small to be there.

His best position is on the wing but with Chris Hicks there he wont get a game.

Hicks at full back is also a disaster as he wont tackle anyone

What happened to Brent Grose he always looked good at fullback?

I'll be happy with a 1 point victory, thankyou very much!

Echo that! Think this w/ends game will be a challenge for both sides of the field. Wire of course will not want another thrashing, espesh at home then we need to continue our current form. Looking forward to seeing both the starting squads.
