CCF I bet

Doubt he will get selected though: travesty if he does (unless he plays a blinder at Hull).

However, as we all sadly have recently been shown, nobody know who knows what further injuries might be sustained from now until this date.

Depends how badly injured Delaney is

It'll be tough but again like most games this year IF we play to our potential we win it may be more of a grind but we still have enough fire-power to win imo but we'll need to be at it for the full 80.

Can't wait ! Should be a real show piece for the super 8s and an indicator on how well we learnt from our last defeats to them

Thing is it's not us who have to learn anything from past defeats to them on this occasion, it's Wigan. Like I pointed out previously, this isn't being played at the DW or Magic Weekend, it's at Headingley and when was the last time they put in a "Wigan performance" at our place? 2012? They've not being able to do what they've done to us at the DW/Magic at Headingley for a few years now.

Magic Weekend they conceded 4 penalties, at the DW 5 penalties so 9 in total in those two games. At Headingley earlier in the year it was 11 penalties. That's been a key reason behind them being unbeaten at home and having a poor away record....penalties and naturally being pinged more when you're the away team.

The question is can they stop us flowing in attack without giving away too many penalties AS THE AWAY SIDE.

The penalty count in the last two games was pretty even, and low. Are you saying Leeds need a big penalty count in their favour to win? In that first game at Headingley, Wigan dropped the ball twice straight from the kick off after they scored and indeed led the game. That gave Leeds easy field position and didn't allow Wigan to build pressure. As I said earlier, I'm looking forward to this game, it should be a good test and indication of where we both really are.

He would not have caught him in his prime never mind these days

Silverwood is referee. *sigh*

Silverwood was the referee in the first game when we got heavily penalised.

Silverwood was also the referee who failed to spot a blatant knock on by Matty Smith which resulted in Wigan scoring 6 points in the following set
He also disallowed a certain try by Leeds for apparent obstruction along with his other RFL collegues on duty that night

So i'm sure you have far happier memories of him than we do

And Tony Clubb's mandatory cannonball tackle in every set of six.......
