GAME ON : Leeds Rhinos v Warrington Wolves - 19:45:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Tricky one to call.
Leeds are rebuilding and trying to find some consistency and Wire, despite spending big are just all over the place.
You have to expect that Wire will improve and come good as the season progresses but, I've gone for a narrow Leeds win, much as it hurts.

I've gone a narrow win for Leeds as well. You could argue that on paper Warrington should win this one quite comfortably, but for whatever reason Price doesn't seem to be getting the best out of his players right now.
Leeds put KR to the sword and picked up a good win at Salford in recent weeks so the momentum is with them going in to this one.

Ashton out for wire is a massive blow, but if they show the same attitude as they did v Wigan and saints they should win this. Leeds 2 wins so far have been against relegation fodder.

Massive blow ?

You’re spine will be

1.) Ratchford
6.) Austin
7.) Widdop
9.) Clark

Price dropped him 2 weeks ago, I’m sure you’ll survive.

And look what happened when he was dropped!!

Leeds by 8

Judging by your miserable win predictions in the past, I hope your right for once and don't flatten my bet.

Wire by 10

Looking forward to watching this. Wire have more quality man for man but are in poor form. Looking at the Warrington board Steve Price is coming under increasing fire from their fans, they seem to believe they've a GF winning side and that he's holding them back, but I doubt this Warrington line-up will be winning at Old Trafford this season. They're just not good enough for that with or without Price.

Leeds are a mid-table side and have only beat two poor sides but have a much stiffer test tonight. The last time they had a tough test at home they got slaughtered by Hull. I'll go for Wire by 6-8 points.

Wire by 6 for me.

Looking forward to this one, very difficult game to predict. On paper Warrington have the stronger squad and should win comfortably enough but I fancy Leeds to nick it. Must win stage for Price as well, I imagine.

Through gritted teeth, but Leeds pretty impressive so far.

8-0 up against a team that are playing dismally and they go for two, don’t get that at all. Very negative.

I take it Sky didn't speak to Thurston before the game?
