Wish I could afford to go but will be following the every minute of the game, looking forward to the 8s

I'll pick you up at your house snowiepops if you want to go, and sort you out when we get there, I'm not buying your beer though

Won't cost you much,2 pints and he's anybodies

No matter what, Salford must not be underestimated, on paper they have several world class players, for what ever reasons they have under performed this season, that said they now have a fantastic coach who I suspect will get them to perform. We shall see, don't think anyone will predict a Wakey win, will be interesting to see how many points start the bookies give us , I suspect it will be something like Wakey + 12 if they presume all players are fit. Once squads are announced depending on if Chase, Ali, Godinet, Smith Dobson etc etc are selected may well have an effect.

I`ve seen Wakefield +8 and Wakefield +6 so far!

Airs a tough start, don't think they are a bad team with the ball. A win would give us a fantastic start . Let's hop B Smith will have done his homework and I'm sure we are prepared and ready. Any one know the half back s.

They in theory should be the easiest of the SL teams because they finished in 11th albeit with a few more points than us.

cheers pal but going on hols soon and got other outlays too so preferences first I'm afraid, anyway might be nice to put my feet up for once

if anyone finds out if full match coverage is available could they post a link please I will be in Entebbe hopefully in my hotel with wifi flights permitting when the game kicks off.

You're safer in Entebbe than in Salford.



Hope you can tune in.

Sky are streaming game on Sky extra.

The missus still not forgiven you yet then ?????

Sheffield or Fax at home would have been "easier" but who knows ?
All of the teams in the "qualification league" will fancy their chances and with 5 wins from 7 needed to be certain of SL next season it's going to be very tight and if any of the "favourites" slip up, the door will open slightly wider for the rest.

If you lose the first one, it means winning 5 from 6, which will be a massive ask for ANY of the middle 8 clubs.

Leigh KR will be the most interesting game of the weekend.

Leigh will be fired up and who knows which KR will turn up, especially after their heroics against Wire at the weekend.

Just been watching the Grand final highlights on Sky.
2008 Leeds won with Smith, Ali, Scruton and Kirke playing.
Smith had a blinder. Hope they play that well on Sunday (Kirke apart)

Next week when i get home

Of course

I have a long planned commitment so can't get to the game on Sunday. Does anyone know if you can record the game from Sky extra?

city airport, cost £5 and is a 5 minute stroll to the site of the moon landings, straight back onto dual carriageway afterwards with no fuss.

Thanks Meast.

How big is it?? How much parking available? Trying to work out how early need to get there.

Locke and kirmond still out, grix no chance of playing this year! Apart from them everybody available for selection, very interested in whom Brian thinks are the best combinations and best players in certain positions .. We certainly have to go out to win every game from now on...

Half back is the biggest question.
If Miller, Smith, Godinet and Hall are all fit, who do we go with?

I like Miller and Godinet personally but it just feels wrong not to play Tim Smith.
If he's been fit and we've just been resting him but running drills with him so our runners are ready to work with him. then I'd have him in. Any doubt and it's Miller Godinet

The half back partnership the crunch. I'm not sure what the best option would be. Smith on his day can run the plays but seen very little of it all season. Millers played better when Smith not playing, it's a bit of a problem. I'm sur Brian Smith will have his best partnership in mind

Seems a strange loan signing if that's true, perhaps we are playing the 'longer game' with him. (unless you are playing the game to our opposition

)
Kirmond is due back for the last 2 games of the 7, rehab better than first thought.

Godinet might play at interchange hooker when he comes back, leaving Miller and Smith to play in the halves

I can't see how Miller can be left out
