Bradford will beat Wigan on Friday in a closely fought contest. I think last Friday's result is good for us and I think Wigan are set for a shock and soon (they've peaked to early in my book as well).

If Wigan's pack lay a platform for Deacon then they'll be nothing we can do to stop the inevitable.

From a Wigan point of view, if Bradford are to beat us you'll have to be spot on defensively, so far this year are defense has been nothing short of superb thanks in part to are excellent control of the ruck.

Offensively like many of on here have pointed out Richards is a big threat against whoever we play, those thankful that Phelps is out may be in for a shock as McGuire believes he'll be fit for a return in this game, meaning Amos will return to the wing.

Finally, apart from the wire game, we've started matches extremely quickly racking up two or three tries in the opening ten minutes, so you'll have to start the match against us in a similar vein if your to hang with us.

Really looking forward to this one, but I'd have to make a score prediction of 28 - 12 in Wigan's favor.

This will be Wigan's fifth game of the season so far, all fans know their team will suffer a loss of form at some point in the season, but I highly doubt we (Wigan) will suffer it after only four games.

Anyway surely you want to face the best in the league playing at their best, that way you'll get a better understanding of how good your side is.

Losig 42-12 doesn't sound like giving them much of a game imo.



Bradford 22-18 Wigan icon_biggrin.gifANCE:

Will be a tough game regardless for us, I just want to see 100% effort and the desire to win.

Quote: Ewwenorfolk "I hope we take advantage of Phelps being out by constantly peppering Goulding with high balls as Roberts has dropped to full-back.'"


Phelps is back in the side according to MaGuire which gives us our strongest back line available in Phelps, Roberts, Gleeson, Carmont and Richards. All who are in fantastic form.

Feka and Harrison Hansen were both rested last week and will be fresh for this game.

Our defence this year has been nothing short of outstanding. We have played 8 halves of rugby league and kept our opponents to zero in four of them. We have only let in 2 tries in our three home matches. Bradford only put seven past Salford last week and Salford look like the worst team in Super League. I'm stunned a few on here are chuffed with the result.

Anything can happen, but there is a real buzz around Wigan at the moment and the team is full of confidence. Providing we don't get complacent I can't see anything else other than a Wigan win.

Let's hope it's a cracker. icon_thumb.gif

Thats what i fear the most as a wigan fan, go into the game complacent and we will lose

But if our forwards keep up their performances like they have been the last four games i will think you will struggle. And phelps is fit it will be a huge plus as it gives us more options in attack

Let's hope it's a cracker. I'm hoping for a cracker aswell, Lynch, Scruton, Langley and Menzies are all on form so it should be a cracking battle in the forwards, I'm just hoping (with phelps back) that your back-line doesn't totally outclass us. I wasnt too thrilled with the 1 try against Salford, but In Monsoon conditions I was glad to keep them nilled, we haven't been too good at the Willows in recent times either.

I don't think Wigan will run away with this one from what I've seen from us in the last 2 games, but I'm just hoping we go into the game all gins blazing with the effort that was shown vs Cas.

I agree with the names mentioned being ones to look out for. Steve Menzies has been a class act and I suspect MaGuire will know all about him. Our forwards haven't been too shabby either. Stuart Fielden and Andy Coley have been outstanding in the opening weeks. It's like watching two different players. Joel Tomkins is a real class act. Keep an eye on that lad. The forwards battle, as you say, should be a real cracker. However (again as you quite fairly admit to) I think our backs will be the difference. Our backs are on form, confident and have so much skill to offer I just can't see Bradford containing them.

It's going to take something special to unlock our defence at the minute. It's been superb and that has been a real focus from our coaching staff. Brett Kearney has impressed me more than Matt Orford. The setup from him for your only try against Salford was fantastic. Although the conditions played a part, I did expect Bradford to post some more points past Salford. We played on the same night on a dreadful pitch (watch the highlights) and still managed to score 58 points. I expected a real forwards battle and for it to be a tough, close game (How wrong was I!).

If our forwards can win the arm wrestle then I think the game could definitely run away from you. Once our tails are up we are a very hard team to stop. Once we score one try we tend to score another straight away. It was a devastating 15 minute spell that killed Warrington. Bradford will be no pushovers on their own patch and I'm sure you will give us a game, but I am very confident of a Wigan win. We have the best defence in the league and the best attack. Our lads are playing with confidence and flair. Form is behind us and with Phelps returning I can't see anything other than a Wigan win.

Crude and slow Whino, your attack was no better than that of a clumsy child.:Others/MINOTAUR.JPG



Most of the Wigan fans on their board reckon Wigan to win by 20+, i'm not so sure, i believe it could be a tight one..
