Like the clubs resident speed bump Ryan McGoldrick! Catalan went through him for most if not all of their tries!

Who are your ins and outs this week ?

For us i'd say Morley and King may be missing possibly Louis Anderson too

Joel Monaghan to return

I Had this out with a cas fan at game yesterday. How can you blame Mathers? Catalan ran riot at McG and Arundel yesterday but nobody picked up on that. Mathers was not to blame for catalan breaking our line for fun. Anyone who blames him is deluded.

Last line of defence is because the first line of defence has been breached.

Exactly.

C'mon guys we can't point the blame at one man alone. A defence consists of 13 men, collectively drilled together in keeping the opposition out, and taking responsibility for marking their man or their zone. We had that at the begining of the season.....and we need to get it back soon.

I'm sorry to say that I think we'll get a right hiding from the Wires, unless we focus on unsettling them somehow and not letting them play to their game plan. If TM is half as good as some think he is, then it is this type of game that is the proving ground. I don't expect a win, but any old coach could take us to a 40 or 50 pt loss and good one as some think TM is, could help us make a good account of ourselves!

bit off topic but how many wire fans thought we would have been saying that when we were nearly relagated a good few years back, feel good time to be a wire atm

Hoping it can't be any worse then our last game with wire, hoping.

We were on fire, white hot even that day though, i expect the game to be a lot closer than last time.

There's a section of our fans that don't think having a solid defence is important and that it's all about playing an entertaining brand of rugby, so prepare for a big score. I'll be there, but I think I'll be shaking my head in dismay more than I'll be clapping my hands in celebration.

In a fans forum(this is 2nd hand info btw) Tony Smith said all the work he does is on Defence, he does nothing in attack and lets his players figure it out for themselves.

We work the other way around by the looks of it.

Train on attack and let the players work out to defend.

This is why your club is where it is. Its not rocket science either sort your defence out and you are well on the way to what you want to achieve.

The annoying thing for us is we can do it...the Huddersfield game at home springs to mind (before we lost half of our props though)

One rather bizarre fact to consider heading into this game is that there are only four teams that have beaten Warrington this season and we've beaten every one of those four...

Might only be 61 - 0 .
