I think Sunday has the potential to be a massive banana skin for us and will be a real test of the professionalism and prep that Wane brings to the team. All stats point to a massive Wigan win but as we know from experiance games are not won on stats and team sheets and if Wigan go in to Sunday half hearted we will get embarrassed.

I am looking forward to seeing how we approach the game and hope we are ruthless, professional and show some of the attacking flair and defensive toughness we have had in the last few weeks.

Hopefully we will rest a few on Sunday, I think it may be tougher than we are expecting but I expect us to win with 20+

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain coach.

Im looking for professionalism yes but fearing its a Banana skin.... no.

if it gets to half time and were less than 12 in front that will be suffice for a kick up the erse the players will need, Widnes are in transition and getting their feet under the table and in 24 months time this will be a very competitive game.... but not this weekend.

With the way Widnes have been falling off tackles in the highlights ive seen I will be shocked if we dont pass the 50 mark.

Losing is one thing but he seems to be struggling to get your team to do the basics. Im not suprised a few fans are getting a bit disgruntled.

You would never catch me with one of those childish signatures:

Young Charnley will be having nightmares this week at the thought of facing the Widnes juggernaut.

Its no bigger test than Bradford or Castleford were. Just put in the same professional performance and we'll be far too good for them.

Wigan will give Widnes a 60+ rinsing. Devastating team in the opponents half Wigan. Great to watch.

Is there anyone but me that wants Betts to succeed at Widnes? (Obviously not at the expense of us this weekend). I seriously hope that regardless of how Widnes fare for the rest of the season I hope they stick with him and build on what they have for next season.

At the end of the day they were promoted to SL and then assembled together with a squad of players where the majority were 'surplus to requirements', what more did they expect other than a couple of wins over the season? (which I still think they will manage).

I know what you mean but do players really need a rest after 4 games?
