That's a good enough reason for you to be where you are, when Hull KR knocked you out of the cup like them you were suffering from injuries but maybe their injured players' were not as influential as yours were, if you can get most of your players back in time for the middle 8s' then there's no reason why you should be worried about any of the championship clubs or the other 3 SL for that matter.

I have just predicted at work we will win 28-16 hope springs eternal looking forward to it come on you leythers I work with a pile of wiganers so I will be off tomorrow if we lose

Same Hull KR that beat us at LSV. Also, we also narrowly beat Bradford at summer bash last year.

They couldn't put 40 on't miners at present.

Who is going to do what to who in the 8's can not be determined yet.

Players back from injury with the players coming in to the club will see us do reasonably well in the 8's IMO but we will have to see what shape all 8 clubs are in, the week leading up to it.

It's effectively a brand new competition

I am confident though we will consolidate our Super League status at the end of it.
