Leigh by 20+... hope im wrong.

Leigh & Fev are two great sides in this league but sometimes I think we on here give them far too much praise? Ok Leigh are knocking spots off everyone but can be beaten and we've led them by overva score twice before. We have already beat Fev this year too etc etc.

I think we'll nick it 22 - 20!

We'll need to up our game to get something from it though.

No doubt about it mate but it's certainly far from an impossible victory!

Leigh are a well drilled side but are beatable.Fax nearly had them in the Northern Rail Final.

Yes they Nearly did

18-38 Leigh.Our winning run has been quite unspectacular with us struggling to put poor opposition to bed.One glimmer of hope though,in the last twenty minutes of yesterdays game we battered Batley whose players,after finding gaps at will in the first half,suddenly struggled to make ground after Widnes took exception to a decision by the reff.We defended enthusiastcally and with aggression,just how a rugby team should defend.If we can take that into the Leigh game from the start we may be in with a sniff.

Too close to call IMO......as said on the Leigh board - your lads will be up for this 1 after some shocking results against us over the last couple of seasons,
If there was ever a game that Widnes want to win this season its this 1.

Surprised to see so many Smogs tipping us for victory. You've had a great preparation with a real test against Batley, whereas yesterday we had what amounted to a disjointed, low intensity training session. My biggest worry is just making the game in the first place, not keen on missing my first Leigh-Widnes game since 1998!

Why you worried about making it? Wigan got you working hard matt?

Summat like that mate.

just be aware, whilst your all at our place creaming over the manly prowess of The Mighty Vikings, with your deviant 'lobby' stewing at home for your return, my specially trained ninja sprogs from the 'Avs' will sneak into your homes and put beetroot in it, and then carrots

On that note;

Widnes 91 Leigh 9

Yeah, but your 'low intensity training session' up there compared with our recent 'nicked it with a try in the last second' up there which gives a good example of the gap between the sides. Can't see past a Leigh victory, but I'll be happy with a bonus point and a good showing. I will not be happy with a 2nd half capitulation like we've seen earlier in the season. Decent close game with two sides going at it and a vocal crowd will do for me.

So who kicks the 1st drop goal ?

Fair point. Just a little taken aback as from the outside you seem a side bang in form, and the pressure is on us to keep chasing Fev.

Jay Duffy!

You guys are saying you are maybe in your position in terms of ability. that maybe so at the moment.

you have a tough game this week though and so do we at Batley. then we play each other next week, lets just say the outcome that we won this week and next week against you and you lost this week and lost to us.

that would leave us 1 point behind or more depending on bonus points. with 2 games left, your 2 games are home and away against Fev our 2 games are against York and Hunslet, now i'm not saying they are easy beats by any means but you never know we could still sneak upto 3rd.

I fear Leigh may score 50 again.

Leigh by 6.

Widnes ahead in the first half, and Leigh to pull away and do enough in the 2nd half.

Think there will be a good following weather permitting. If so, I can see nothing other than a 5k+ crowd !!

Let's just hope the players don't take in the same attitude!

10 game unbeaten in the league and the fact is we have defeated EVERY team in our division bar Leigh during 2011... We more than owe them one!

can't have you beating us in the last game for 3 years (unless we get you in the CC)
