ah round 4 and skysports finally decide to show us, every other team has already been on but we know now that we dont get on tv much

wakefield have a shorter turnaround than us for this one and we could do with getting the two points

talk of symonds returning , but heard that so many times, even if he did it would prob be a cameo appearance of the bench but a step in the right direction, hope he does.

weather not looking good, might suit us like it did against warrington

still missing around 5 first teamers , walne back on the cold list so would think dickinson will be a direct replacement

We are grinding out wins but not yet playing anything like as well as we can. Should be a very tight game if it actually takes place.

Will they consider switching to get it on ?

err no

More fool them- Town are away this week so could easily swap the fixtures around if necessary. If it’s called off and needs rescheduling that will be a third session of three games in a week somewhere in the calendar- unless of course you don’t fancy a cup run.

It's not that simple these days - are you going to honour sponsors etc?

I get what you say but I just can't see it happening it's just not viable imho.

Should go ahead ok. (fingers crossed) There's a huge 'electric blanket/hot air device covering the pitch. I wonder if Sky have shelled out for it so they don't have a gap in their schedule.

Wakey looked good last season and again look to be comfortable contenders for the top 8.
Away from home, we are the underdogs.
Grix is showing his class and if he has a good game we might have to rely on creating overlaps or using some attacking structure rather than kick and hope or going for a barge over.

Looking at the weather I'd say both teams will be looking at barging it over. Any team that ties to play RL will lose this one. It's wide open for which ever team wants it most.

This worries me. I can't us running over you. A few unexpected tricks in the snow could be the difference.

Love the line " Grix showing his class " wait till you play a big game that matters!

always think the same, he did it last season for them too... cometh the hour cometh that man grix!

no symonds, shock.

looks like smith will go to prop to cover walne and roche makes his sl debut in second row maybe

Yes he showed it all last season apart from 2 games when he was just above average, and that was in 30 big games that mattered.

I can't understand your bitterness really, oh and fwiw he's carrying on where he left off last season.

Not bitter at all he is an average hard working player who is prone to a clanger in important games , if you run through videos of any reasonably important game we played in you will see a lot of evidence. The word is average not class that is top line players
