First few sets will be crucial. Wigan will go all out on briscoe. Hopefully there are some plans to close down the kicker and support him in defence.

Expect the kick off to go to him.

Hope he can come through it and play a big role could be the boost his confidence needs.

Why not? We've still got a healthy record against top 8 opposition this year. Wigan haven't won at Headingley since 2012. We had 3 good wins vs near opposition in Salford, Saints and Hull before resting for Wigan away. One defeat against what was a very good Hull performance and people start fretting so much.

As wthe Pie Eaters will just follow on from where they left off 2 weeks ago.

Hope to eat humble pie if I'm wrong but in the last few games (exclude Salford) we have not a clue near the line at the moment!

Golding
Briscoe Watkins Sutcliffe Hall

Delaney Keinhorst Lilley Mullally

that's a weak bench

Delaney's brave to return from a knee injury against Wigan

in fact it's bloody odd. a second row, a prop, a half back and a centre/second row. with 3 props in the 17 they could easily be totally gassed by the half hour mark

Garbutt and ferress both injured. Obviously Galloway put as well.

JJB will effectively be playing prop at LF

I reckon keinhorst on the bench will offer cover for briscoe, keinhorst to centre, sutcliffe to fullback, Golding to wing. Or just straight sutcliffe to wing.

very impressive 20 minutes. crunch will be when changes are made. let's hope this carries on

Feel like we've had our pockets picked easily the best side for 25 mins then gift them back into game. Need one of those legendary Brian mac inspirational team talks

Been like watching NFL the amount of Wigan passed which have been forward!!
Showed some real intent for 20mins but give Wigan ANYTHING and they kill you
Golding has had more attacking involvement & intent that half than the rest of the season put together... and has looked well for it
C'mon Leeeeeeeeeds

credit where it's due, fantastic performance. top 4 all but booked and Wigan gone.

Brilliant, exciting display straight from the hooter in 2nd half - a great way to sign off the South Stand for me as I'll miss Sts game

Golding showed attacking potential which was great to see after offering so little in that dept. all year - and it's clear he LOVES Leeds

Briscoe showed bravery to turn up but still looks broken, and Delaney having what you've got to imagine is his swansong

Ward has got to be captain for next year in my mind

outstanding performance Mags was excellent, bye bye Wigan

McDermott out
