If we can keep a straight defensive line, with nobody flying out of it trying to be a hero, we have got a decent chance. If we defend like we did on Saturday, with guys launching themselves out of the line at French and Field and leaving a big gap behind, we will be massacred.

Apart from Mikaele (obvs), what has changed in there? Why were they great in March and almost invisible now?

Have you all seen Wigan's pack?
I'm not saying we will win, but player for player in the pack we are miles ahead. I don't think they'll be able to stop our go forward and they have no go forward. Of course, we might struggle to control Marshall, Field and French...

Do you mean Field Marshall French? If so I’m confident we WILL be able to stop him. |

Hope this is rhetorical, because I don't know, just saying what I see. |

You can guarantee the likes of old man Farrell will play a blinder. They're not a three man team. We all know they'll raise their game. I don't think we'll have enough grit to get past them. I hope I'm wrong! |

A quick defensive line stifles our go-forward which is exactly how Wigan and Saints and, to a degree Hull, got over us...........
That and our god-awful defense!! |

Wigan have also gone backwards since we played them.

They will be up and in our faces from minute one and be very aggressive defensively with Marshall / Miski / Wardle / King making good yards when they are in possession. If we stand a chance we are going to have to find a better way of controlling the ruck on both sides of the ball vs the last time we played them. |

Funny how often Farrell gets his armpit snagged round the ball after making a tackle. Or ends up on the wrong side and has to do a slow motion hurdle over the tackled player to get back to marker. Really unlucky that. |

Should be training in an air conditioned environment set to about 20 degrees with the sprinklers on!
