It's a huge game tonight. Our remaining fixtures look better than Wigan's on paper and they were less than convincing last night. I'm expecting a great atmosphere tonight. Looks to be a good crowd with very limited in the North/East/south Stands online.

whatever happens i think KR & Wire have been the two most exciting teams to watch in the comp as nobody really knew where theyd both be at the end of the season, everyone else is just same old same old and wigan have been found out to be a 2 man team

Most thought burgess would be a flop

Many thought we was a flash in the pan

i just hope we can stop that shift play with dufty drifting in and getting ashton in space

What did sky dub it, first time we met? Contenders versus pretenders?

Baring injuries in the warm up, King, Philbin & Fitzgibbon not in the 17 tonight. Lindop & Holroyd both keep there starting places.

Bateman on the bench.

It will be interesting to hear why King and Fitzgibbon are not in the match day 17, no doubt Burgess will give us an update after the game. It makes a great statement of confidence in Holroyd and Lindop and will give a big boost to the rest of the Academy to boot.
