For those who cannot get to the game on Sunday. The game is available on Live Sport FM, James Cunningham will be the special guest.

The first weekend is finally here. We better be up for this as Swinton certainly will be. With current injuries and those just coming back, I think the 17 will be pretty much as announced at York.

Good solid win for first game then go into the first home game on a positive. Just hope we get a chance to play rugby and not get dragged into a mud fest.

Weather forecast is for showers but it is the North so....

We need to put up a good score this week against Swinton, to set ourselves up for next weekend, Hull KR.

Chris Kendall is our referee on Sunday.

I will take a win of any size. I think teams will see us as a "scalp" and will play above themselves, especially this early in the season. Just hope we cut out the drop balls and needless penalties.................................

Nice strong squad Hendo has put up for Sunday.

Done a big if work with Chris Kendall he is an excellent bloke and a decent ref so hopefully no complaints.

Agree that we will be seen as a scalp to take so we need to go into every game with the right attitude. A bit of basic rugby to start as in pass ball catch ball! Something we seem to struggle with. No stupid free Mtrs!

Appreciate the 'scalp' comments but our 19 should really be more than strong enough to bring the points home.

All the best for the new season and good luck this weekend

Lets get this season started. We are on our way..

Shocking start!!

00-10 down after 10mins.....

Ooooh dear!

Did you actually read what he said?

Yes, hence my comments

Thank god for that, good win in the end!

Not sure about good, but at least it's a win!

Indeed may turn out to be a positive - a acre but we got through. Will re-in force the don't get complacent message!

Credit to Swinton, whilst London weren't great Swinton did a lot good and deserve credit. The right hand side of the London defence was worryingly weak. On the evidence of this Mr Schofield isn't far wrong about London, both on and off the pitch.

Was all set to have a rant about GS and found he'd almost damned us with faint praise!

Perhaps no surprise that Dixon is a liability defensively. Perhaps more importantly, though, how long have the team been travelling up on the day of the game? I recall they did it at Salford last year. Could this account for a slow start?

Yes it could be a factor. I watched with a Wire fan I know from the Carcassonne game. I didn't know they travelled today and we both said it looked like they were still on the coach for the first 15 mins or so.

A win is a win but a bit close for my liking
