Ok, I’ll ask. Who is Dom Waites?

Souter and Lilley will need to be on top form tomorrow - otherwise I'm fearing an upset.

We look really light for Swinton so will desperately need some bodies back by then - Gaskell back would be a big plus.

He was one of 5 players promoted to the first team squad from the academy at start of the season. Not seen much of him though. Will play reserves alot this year, I think he's a centre/backrower.

EOC says its just illness with Gaskell. Probably being overly cautious keeping him out. The seasons 3 weeks away so no point risking him. Fax look to have just sustained 3 serious injuries to 3 key players in their game. We can't afford that to happen to us.

Unchanged today.

vpn jitters strikes again ... couldnt listen last week, also cant get my vpn working today ... c'est la vie. i want to listen to a rugger game, how is that a threat to china national security :/

In 5 mins Lilley has shown he’s not capable of being the leading half

Just need to remain patient. It's not a classic, but we cannot afford to get frustrated and lose the plot. Keep doing what we're doing (which is dominating field position) and eventually widnes should crack.

Lacking variation in attack. It's like Kear has come back.

It is, isn’t it. Clueless in attack. Now playing with the extra man again.

That kick from Lilley to gift them a 7 tackle set cost us dearly. All we needed to do was ask them to come from corner again.

We seem very lethargic today.

Very poor game so far. Widnes have played with a man down for a quarter of the game as well. Bulls need a miracle here with 10 mins to go.
