Nobody's arguing with the Wire v Leeds opener. But Wigan v Catalan ??? Maybe Catalans at home, but that's a real damp squib for the first weekend - an easy win in zero atmosphere. Then, next week, Saints v Salford! Who thought that'd be a good idea?
Poor show.

You're right, it could be worse : at least they're not trying to make us watch Rovers.

What has Ryan Hall got on his face? He looks like a sewer rat.

I very much doubt it'll be a damp squib. Or an easy win, for that matter. |

An easier win than when Wigan played 12 man Widnes in the first round last year then.
Who's to say the slight underdogs can't win? Adds to the excitement surely. A great chance to see how the teams who didn't make the 4 have improved too. |

Don't look now but I think 6 of Wigan's first 7 home games are televised. |

Does it really matter that much? In the end it is a game of rugby league that I can watch so I don't care which ones they are.

I thoroughly enjoyed that.
For the first game of the season – that was good stuff.
A really tight free-flowing game, sure there were some contentious calls, but Warrington just edged it with the Sandow kick for the try, pure class.
So what have I learned from tonight, Warrington need to stop holding down for too long, the penalties they racked up could have lost them the game. Leeds need to find a better kicker & Jon Wells needs to stop getting in a fluster.

Wigan and Catalans will be a top game I reckon. We're always vulnerable at the start of the year and Catalans team looks strong.
It'll be a tough battle in the forwards and I could see Todd Carney putting an early stamp on the season.

| the golden rule of slagging the fixtures for tv is to actually let them play out first before critisising them  |

Unfortunately I think the weather might do its best to ruin this one. Looks set to chuck it down  |

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

Rovers V Cas or St's V Hudds would have bee good options with better atmospheres and saved the Wigan games for the big blockbusters.
