8 losses on the trot for widnes, how many more can betts take before the chop? he would already be gone if some giants fans had their way

Huge game - wish I was going and nearly bought tickets earlier in the week before the missus reminded we were off to London



We definitely have the momentum to win the game that's for sure. Our form and confidence have to be high and hopefully winning in Newcastle gets us more confidence to come out of none-Giants changing rooms and win finally! The challenge will be whether the return of Kev Brown can immediately improve their creativeness and step up their overall performances. He'll be up for it playing against his most recent club as always but I think we're in a much better position to handle him than earlier in the year.

If Broughy can keep up his enthusiasm (he's up for it) then his kicking game is unstoppable (both defensive and attacking) and the rest of the side will take care of itself.

Like everyone before has said - this is the make or break for me in terms of reaching the top 8 as in if we lose I think we're done for. We've also got the Salford tribunal situation which would also snuff our chances I suspect if they get the 6pts back so even winning guarantees us nothing... but lose and we're done.

I'm feeling confident of a win though for once to keep the form going.

Let's hope it's 9 on the trot, no doubt if you win Betts will blame the referee.

yeh seen salford are appealing the 6 point deduction. the rfl may turn round and deduct them 20 if they lose! not that it would make much difference.

kev brown a big boost for widnes and got a game under his belt at newcastle so will be better but so will ellis

A lot of what may or may not happen regards the super 8 depends on those around us.
Catalan vs Salford
Wire vs Leeds
Salford vs wakey
Recent form and where the two points are likely to go are rather favourable to us and wire, wakey and Catalan victories would have us
In 9th, 2 behind Widnes, 1 above hkr, 2 above Salford and 4 off Leeds and the wooden spoon! If we can beat Widnes over at their spot!
Although this is super league and owt can and will happen! But the above would be a brilliant weekend for us #coyg!

ian millwards makes widnes his bet of the round!

Anderson has named the same 19 man squad as he did for magic weekend.

Well wakey messing my plans up although....Phil Clarke had them to lose all but one!

Also noticed Millward strongly fancied Widnes to get the win (+6) Suppose they are due one. They looked very good at ours,better than Wigan who visited previous to them.

Ikahihifo will be on the receiving attend of some strong defence I feel ,always seems to be the way when the a new overseas forward makes a good early impression.

Good- use him as the dummy runner and give it taai instead!



With Salford winning there's even more pressure on us to get the two points tomorrow.

them winning at our place is a long time ago now! when injuries hit it was always going to stop their momentum

the biggest thing is them playing at home and having kev brown back!

they also have a new overseas player making a debut tomorrow, hope he doesnt go as well as ikahihifo did
