Another agreed here Ant.
In fact I will go further.
We - WON'T - win.
As I have said before, this is a bridge too far IMHO.
An off form Salford at the LSV with confidence issues & seemingly other issues too is one thing, Wakefield away was a cert, but this is unlike any other fixture this season.
Wire will just be too strong, too skilled.
My hope is that Leigh just play strong, smart, hard & fair & give the best account of themselves & Championship RL they can give.
If they do that, then us Leigh fans will enjoy the day regardless of the result.
To add to this, I now think of the CC as an unwelcome distraction for the club, with the fixture list backing up & the importance of the Middle 8's being of far greater importance.
Having said all of that, I will probably lose my voice on the day & will shout the boys on all the way, that will never change.

Salford weren't off form at the time, they were the form team in Super League doing very well up in 4th place, it was only after the Leigh game the wheels fell off.
Agree though Warrington are a step above & should win it easily but as I've said it's not impossible with their inconsistency. Does rely on them having an off day though in my opinion.
IF we beat Warrington then the cup could become a distraction, as it stands we're top of the league, almost certain of a top 4 finish, highly likely for a top 2, so long as that keeps up it doesn't really matter as points are wiped and we begin again in the Qualifier Super 8 so it's not a distraction at the moment.

| The 20 points start with Bet365 is a gift.

| Did anyone see The Super League show last night? They had Ashton Sims from Wire on and it sounds like they haven't even thought about us yet! I know there's still 5 days till the game and it could all be mind games but still. A couple of times he talks about how they need to improve in the league then remembers Saturday's game & looks all flustered and doesn't know what to say. Asked about Leigh & he says something like "They're a good side with good players like Hock & Moimoi." Yesss but they're our big name signings, interesting you didn't mention McNally, Kes, Riddy & Kay who'll be the ones really testing your notoriously weak defence. If he's representative of them all and they don't do a lot more homework we could very well win this!

| Can anyone tell me how much the tickets are for the match at the HJ on Saturday please?
We'll be going regardless but I need to get some prices beforehand if possible.

Preview for Saturday, getting excited for it now!

Think this will be a step too far but it isn't impossible! If we play at our best we will give ourselves a chance. We just need the Wire that played HKR to show up and not the one that beat Leeds!
If we do go out then the upside is that it avoids even further problems with rearranging matches for our already congested fixture list. 2 mid week matches already leading up to the 8's is going to be tiring enough at the most important part of the season without adding another!

It's a public forum, people can offer their opinion without being asked last time I checked.

| I am always of the opinion that winning the next game is always the target, we have an very large squad with players who can rotate with the usual suspects in the less testing games. If they can't then they shouldn't be in the squad.
