Was looking forward to this one until all the McGuire/Dufty shenanigans broke and that dire performance against ‘Ull at the weekend.

Not got me tickets yet though so I could still back out.

Who’s brave enough to go in the current climate?

Be weird if you went, being a Saints fan an all

Give him/her the benefit of doubt.
The handle after all is ‘on the beach’ not ‘on the dole’!

What's the Dufty thing?!

The Dufty thing is what Warrington are experts at.
Signing players who get homesick.

Come the Wigan game ,the Wire should be free of the weight of the McGuire shenanigans & be free to play like the all conquering team of 2022. :

Where has the Dufty homesick thing actually come from?

Dunno, but it broke only after he was dropped to the bench.

I asked this myself, I never heard it til people on here kept saying it out of nowhere.

But was back starting again

Looks like it will be the least worst team that wins this cup game.

Wigan were poop last night.
Wire were poop tonight.

Come on "On the Beach" it will still be fun & worth watching & of course you'll be there.

Of course.
Hoping for a big performance and even bigger result.

Aren't you in benidorm for the cup quarter final weekend??

Thought it was Talacre or Rhyl

Going off recent results, I'm confident Wire can 'out-poop' Wigan convincingly!

Not saying we’ll lose but my finger is already on the Powell out thread.

Our pack of...

Vaughan Clark Dudson
Currie Harrison
Kasiano

Philbin Bullock Walker

...should trample all over their pack, but hey who knows.

Salford showed the league how to get around Wire.

Hudds nearly had our number last week. HKR pushed us close too. I think it'll be as bad as the Wigan and Saints games a few weeks ago. That pack was great back in March, but we're a different team now.

If we can keep a straight defensive line, with nobody flying out of it trying to be a hero, we have got a decent chance. If we defend like we did on Saturday, with guys launching themselves out of the line at French and Field and leaving a big gap behind, we will be massacred.

Apart from Mikaele (obvs), what has changed in there? Why were they great in March and almost invisible now?

Time for Mr Powell to earn his money

Have you all seen Wigan's pack?

I'm not saying we will win, but player for player in the pack we are miles ahead. I don't think they'll be able to stop our go forward and they have no go forward. Of course, we might struggle to control Marshall, Field and French...

indeed, that's how they beat us *coff splutter*

I didn’t imply that.
