They won't lose loads in the grand scheme of things with Hardaker and Hanley at wing/centre in some order and O'Donnell back in for Halton.

We need to control their front row. Ipape is outstanding, as is Amone and Mulhern is playing out of his skin. Do that and there is too much pace in the Wigan side for them.

10k sold before Leigh's tickets have gone on sale, should be a bumper crowd!

Hope you're right but looking at the ticket map I'd guesstimate 5/6k tops so far, the south/east are looking very sply populated

Just going off Wigan's social media post this morning, can only assume it is accurate.

It'll pick up over the week just like it did against Hull KR last year and be a respectable crowd but Wiganers do seem to have a habit of giving semi-finals a miss, be it Challenge Cup or SL. Always frustrating when a playoff game has a poorer turnout than the equivalent league game. Important the fans get behind the team this week and give them the support they deserve.
