Nothing less than a comfortable win in both games, thats what i expect and that's what i want. Without showing to much disrepespect to Leigh we should have to much much for them and Doncaster should also be a victory. These 2 games should see us sitting in a very healthy position in the top tier of the league. Toa should also be back for these games.


Also interesting to read that Paterson should be back for the reserves game with Leigh on Friday and i would hope Banister and Mills will also be getting a run out along with the likes of Mullally and Robinson etc.


I do hope Fletcher is okay and not out for another 3 weeks, and hopefully Morrison is only another 3 weeks away from a return.


Interesting also to see Wigan sign Martin Gleeson today from the Wire, likely to force Darryl Goulding down the pecking order and would be a good addition out wide. I realise a prop is a priority but i also think we are short of another decent centre.


Anyhow lets hope we get the results we demand for the next 2 games.


Over to you boys.

Goulding to Salford it seems.

What happend to Fletch? too much black label made the Fax game a bit blurry

Tweaked his hammy again.

I think we'll struggle against Leigh unless we speed up around the ruck and stop attacking so flat and predictably, not to mention dealing with the short kick off and improving discipline.

We seem to have gone backwards from that dynamic attacking side that trounced Toulouse..

You dont realise how bad we are though, trust me we are poor. Widnes by 30 on Friday

The Leigh fear factor is no more!!









I will be there with wife and baby on tow, and I see nothing more than a comfortable Widnes win!!

Leigh always raise their game at Widnes, and with Ned being in charge I expect nothing less. Think it will be a tough game that we will just sneak.

Social services have been informed, or are you blending in with the locals in an effort to get more benefits?



After alcohol successfully managed to numb the pain of Wakefield on Friday, I've volunteered to drive to the game on Friday - it's going to be a long afternoon. Widnes by a comfortable 20.

Thanks for the offer Matt!!!!

In that case then, you can pick me up so I can get rat d with the wife!!!









Oh, you can babysit too!!!









Widnes 40 - Leigh 6 - 1000 Leythers calling for Neds head!!

Regarding Leythers on Friday, probably won't be as straight forward as some are making out. They will no doubt raise the bar, but I feel we should have a little bit too much class. Well I hope. Like to see us being a bit more clinical and using tactical kicking more often. Just hope our front three don't get dominated and bullied out of the game, it is always an arm wrestle with Leigh, never a dull affair.



Going for Widnes 34 - Leythers 26. 4200 ish

Doncaster, grind out a hard fought win but i feel the winning margin will be closer than the Leigh game.

I`m with the misses in the lakes all week check out Friday so gonna drag her the match against the Leigh thugs



Always a good game against the hooligans and the way things are at the mo the odds are for us fingers crossed but will not be easy.

I`m gonna go 28-20 think the thugs may be up for it

Bibey and richard Mooore have since moved on chief.

I will never take Leigh for granted. We will have to work hard for a win but I think we will do it.

I agree with Richard that we need to see these two next games through and should be looking at winning both if we are to have aspirations of winning the whole lot. Early days yet so we can turn anything around but now is the time to prove a point.

Leighs ambition is survival this year, should be a no contest.

I agree. We should win, but there have been a lot of occasions where Leigh raise their game against us. I know it was a lilttle while ago now, but those 50 point games against us in 2006 have left me mentally scarred where Leigh are concerned.

I do hope Leigh are strong this year, because RL in general seems to get more and more Yorkshire dominated every year, but a big win on Friday for Widnes would go down very well.

If he plays TKL for MOM - I thought he and Doran where the difference between the 2 sides in the game at Leigh last year and I'm sure they'll both want to have big games on Friday.

It was quite obvious at the time how bad Toulouse were. I couldnt believe all the hype that Widnes were getting after beating them so easily. I truly believe Fax would have been around the 100 mark that night if they had played Toulouse.

Because Halifax are so fantastic, everybody bow down and kiss their rings.

Yes let's all bow down to the mighty fax, your an arrogant little tit. Just like your coach.

We are not worthy!!!!

For any other fax fans with half a brain, we are capable of playing an exciting brand of attacking rugby, unfortunately we have gone back to boring one man slow drives this may be by total coincidence that it is since cullen took charge. This is what we are trying to get at.

back on topic, i think that it will be a close game with us winning by 10

I think, with all due respect to both teams, I'd be very disappointed if we don't come away with victories. Questions would have to be asked, given the squad we have, if they lose to either of those two at the moment.

I do agree that Leigh are always tricky and lift their game against us, due to the derby like atmosphere the game generates, but they do lack quality in many positions. If the lad's keep their heads, and I mean that quite literally, we should beat Leigh comfortably on Friday by 18 or 20 points.

Oh diddums. Stick the dummy back in ya big girl.



Anyway not a bad draw for us in the cup. Nice trip to Cas, Sl`s most exciting team versus the championships most exciting team.

Cas have been drawn against Barrow?
