Think a dwarf chucking contest is on at the same time.

I think it's crackers playing Friday. surely Saturday or Sunday would have been better

Yorkshire vs Lancashire in the cricket at Headingley Friday to Monday. Rules out Sunday really as you're not really going to do an 8pm kickoff for that day. Saturday night is Champions League final, do you really want to go up against that.

If not on tv then its barmy.should be sunday

Bless....

p.s. It's called the championship these days luv, and when did you ever see us play in that, and 'beating players' up etc. ? WHAT A SILLY COMMENT

There's only 1 Sky game this weekend. I think it's something to do with the fact that they showed more than 2 games in Round 11 (which was the round where the 4 teams who joined the CC a round early played on the weekend on the World Club Challenge) - so they have to have a round where they can't show 2 games to compensate.

Don't "luv" me - your sexual orientation is none of my concern

I went to a game with you are Bradford that quite frankly was nothing more than a free for all.

You tube is a great thing you can watch virtually every Leigh game on there - perhaps you need to revisit a few games?

The culture in that club especially when Rowley was there was particularly grim

If we have any top 4 ambitions we need to beat leigh. Whilst it's a huge test to be playing them again so early while everyone else had a longer rest, it should work out in our favour. Leigh will be as tired as us, we have a bigger squad with more experience and it gives us extra rest before we play against a flying Wakefield.

8 wins and we will have a top 4 place imo but this is likely to be our last game against a side not in the top 8. So this, Wakefield and Hull should be the targets along with one out of Wigan, Saints, Salford and Cas would leave us in a good position going into the 8s, especially if we have taken points from the two closest sides in the table. Behind them there are Wigan and saints sides who have a fair bit to make up on us but look well capable of going on a run (saints look to have started, Wigan have plenty to come back) a slip up this week like last and suddenly we are not only playing catch up with those around us but looking over our shoulder at Wigan and Saints.

Water under the bridge and all that, but losing at widnes was a game we should have won.

Can actually see something in putting Handley on the bench this time. Can take off Parcell move Burrow to DH, Moon to HB, Handley to centre. People may argue Baldwinson instead but we have enough props in that 17 and Handley also provides backs cover if one went down injured such as Golding did last week.

Completely agree. We are prop/middle heavy (including JJB in that these days)

At least with handley on the bench it allows for a shift/impact with moon to the halves and provides cover.

Handley is lining up at full back during the warm up. The plan might be to move Sutcliffe into the halves and Burrow to hooker when he comes on. I do agree about having him on the bench, a full forward bench is just asking for trouble.

Those that stayed at home, good choice. What an horrendous pile of 5h1te these two teams are. Utterly boring game, with really poor reffing.
