Huge game on Saturday.

A win takes us 9pts ahead of the Bulls, a loss brings them within 5pts with a game in hand. A good chance for us to open up some distance between the top 2 and the rest.

A few selection headaches for Jukesy.

Left centre seems to be the most obvious dilemma. Is Tonga ok to play after only managing 40 minutes on Sunday? Can we risk playing him in such a big match with his current injury record? Is Worthington available for selection again yet? (Also a risk with HIS injury record!) Whiting is Mr Dependable and would probably be the 'safest' option.

Will Riddy be ok to play? I would suggest this weekend would be too soon and too important to throw Drinkwater in without giving him time to learn our plays etc. But if Ridyard is unavailable I think we will have no option but to throw him in at the deep end.

Assuming Riddy is ok ( icon_razz.gifRAY: ) and Paterson, Worthington, Moimoi etc are still unavailable I would hope to see us line up something like:

1. Smith
2. Higson
3. Whiting
4. Armstrong
5. Kay
6. Ridyard
7. Reynolds
8. Weston
9. Higham
10. Acton
11. Hansen
12. Maitua
13. Hock

Bench:
Hood
Emmitt
Hopkins
Fash

From a Bulls point of view we have been very disjointed this year and suffering greatly from the lack of a genuine scrum-half and only one stand-off. Everyone is hoping that Smith may be able to turn us around but feel this game is coming just a bit early for him.

Well I like to think we will win every game and Saturday is no different.

Bradford seem too be struggling at half back this season so I think it would be daft not to have Drinkwater in our starting 17. Should Tonga be fit I would play him too.

Tonga or Worthington to centre, Whiting to second row and Hock on the bench with Drinkwater if riddy fit from that 17 - Fash and Hood to miss out. God help Jukes when MoiMoi, Patterson, McNally are back.

Completely irrelevant in my opinion. If we carry on playing as we have then we will never beat a SL team.

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg

I was thinking the exact opposite, with a full and fit squad we are looking far more likely to do a lot better this year, and I fancy us to go up - this set want it more

From the Leigh Centurions twitter account:

"We now have only 80 tickets left for a complete North Stand sell out on Saturday. If you haven't got your tickets yet you need to hurry!"

So if you know anyone who wants to be behind the sticks, tell them to buy today!

Believe we have had to apply for more tickets from the RFL several times and keep selling out. Tickets available at LSV up 'til 4pm Friday.

There has been much improvement over the last 2 games - even if the opposition was very average - and we've been able to speed our game up and play more expansive rugby with confidence.

The week off for cup matches did us the world of good too, I reckon.

I'm pretty confident we can beat Bradford on Sunday which could well springboard us for a fantastic second half of the season.

Oh aye!! Thanks for that, Atomic. I had it down for Sunday night.

And as for "turning up" - I haven't been to a match all season due to ill health. But Fev at home is what I am aiming for. Fingers crossed, etc.

I will be there, coming Saturday morning going back Sunday.
Think it will be a very tight game, and hopefully no yellow or red cards, it will be a physical/hard game.
I think Leigh will just win it.
prediction Leigh 28 Bradford 20 i hope.
