Centurions by 30

It's tough old place to go to is Post Office Road at the best of times. Young Duffy will have his new guns well up for it and he will have done his homework on Leigh that's for sure. I predict nothing much in it over the first 60 mins. The important part is to come away with 2 points. (Pretty much like we did there last season)

I would think that Duffs will be trying to change a few things at Fev. They will be a bit dis-jointed in his first game in charge I would think. I hope he doesn't continue the spoiling tactics he employed last season that he learned from his mentor Rowley.

I don't think he would do that - I reckon last season was more down to the mix of players on the pitch. John is getting a reputation for being a coach whose team plays attractive rugby. According to Featherstone chairman, that's why they offered him the job.

A game all about discipline IMO - we have learned (hopefully) that to win games at this level, keep penalties to a minimum and control the ball. Any win at Fev is a great result.

I've seen Swinton a few times over the last couple of years and I wouldn't say spoiling tactics were what I noticed (other than Josh Barlow, and I don't think his approach is "coached"icon_wink.gif. For a team assembled on a low budget, they strung together some very slick handling movements, especially this season, at times they looked the slickest attacking team in the division despite struggling overall.
