First league game on the horizon and we need a big following to get down to bramall lane (thank god we don't have to visit the don valley) I hope you can all make it.

Tough selection dilemma this week for Denis.

I like the sound of that. Long time since we were in a good enough position to have selection dilemmas.

Menzie Yere was up for a suspension for a rough tackle but has been passed with no charge as well. We've got some opposition there and it would be a mistake to treat it as otherwise just because Sheffield are not one of the division's more established names.

same team as yesterday for me but bring heckenberg back in but who for is the problem.got full confidence in who ever marks yere our lads are full of confidence now

How fit was Scully looking? Fit enough for Sheff?

Danny 'MeatGrinderSkillDemon' Sculthorpe is fit enuff to take on any effete, feeble defence that dares to challenge his manly powers!

Not fit enough yet IMO, needs another 3 hit outs in the reserves or you could put him on the bench for the hunslet game.

I would go with the same team as we had against fev.

Which stand(s) do they open at Bramall Lane?

The John Street Stand this season, tickets will be on sale at that side of the ground, and will be sign posted.

It's the "Malta Family Stand" on John Street, holds 7,000 and it's a great stand if it's sunny like today, how many you think will make the trip over?

Any one else older enough to remember our last trip over to Bramall lane?

Hopefully after a good start to the season we can bring around 1,000

No Thacks, Allen or Paddy then?

Not sure if it was the last 1 but remember being there the game after winning the WCC in 89 and getting stuffed

Thats a big ask Vikingman, If we take 500 to south yorkshire i would be very happy. A good win against sheffield in what will be a tough game followed by a good performance at home to Hunslet and then we might break the 1k barrier for the Leigh game. Im Hopefull the club Start buidling up to these games before the announcement and realy try to get the support up both home and away.

I would probably stick with the same team we used at fev, No point risking I'anson or Sculthorp until we are certain they are ready and have had a few hit outs at a lower level.

I reckon we'll take decent numbers, been to Sheffield many times (Owlerton, Bramall Lane and Don Valley) and there always seems a good turn out, even when we've had to go over on a Friday night.

Aye,we got battered just after winning the world club challenge against Canberra.I think Doug described it as 'after the Lord Mayors show'.

oh yeah forgot about them 2 no flynn tho not bin good enough yet this year i think he took his place for granted and gaskell and gardner are playing well

Sheffield have had a wretched start to the year but I wouldn't read too much into it yet. I expect us to win, however.

Sheffield fans have read a lot into it, we are severely lacking in the backs, with Yere out as well it should be a comfortable Widnes win, hoping I'm wrong though!

Indeed it was. I wonder if they will swap the pitch around again. So instead of playing from goal end to goal end they went width ways.
