Not impossible by any means - this team with the key players fit is capable of winning plenty of games back to back.

Saints came back after being 8 points adrift of the top 4 last year.

Can't beliebe how pessimistic some people are being about the Swinton game.

The pack alone should easily be able to handle them. After that there's still plehry of quality in yhe backline to tackle a team outside of SL.

We should still win quite comfortably

Yeah they did require a collapse from Catalans but I'm hoping Salford could do something similar. Hopefully a good win against Swinton will give the young lads confidence to kick on and they can pull it out of the bag in the coming weeks,Warrington and Saints should beat us but you never know,we've been backs against the wall before and pulled it off.

I'm sure Huddersfield thought that as well.

On paper Wigan win by 20+ even 30+ for me. In real terms we're a team desperate for some form and a win, there is a lot of pressure on this game. Even more so coming in as probable heavy heavy favourites.

Swinton have nothing to lose and will be going all out for a victory. John Duffy is a personal friend of mine and a very good coach and will no doubt have them firing. That said I'd expect nothing less than a Wigan win with Swinton coming out firing for the first 15mins of each half.

Any win will do in our current state.

Doom and gloom merchants are out again

Wane said Sam will be another 6-8 weeks, surely not! Sam just been asked on BBC and he said he's running better now and is about a month off but doesn't want to rush it.

Really nasty looking arm injury for Sarginson in the NRL yesterday. The injury jinx follows you around!

After today's game SW has said Williams, O'Loughlin and Leuluai are all in contention for next week. That would be a real bonus if they're all genuinely fit!

Yep, and no new injuries from today's game!

That must be the first in a while without injuries!

Keeping everything crossed we can get the likes of Tomkins, Bateman and Gildart back before the cup game but that maybe optimistic.

Some of the comments on here are a bit doom and gloom, but then again it's the same every year, especially last year. Don't understand why we can't win a SL game in May, it's Magic Weekend next week where we have a great record and some bodies back, then Saints who at the minute are very low on confidence followed by Wakey at home.

I'm not saying we will win them all but don't understand the overly pessimistic comments. I strongly believe by the end of the year we will be there or there abouts.

If you are ever feeling full of beans, and unbearably chipper!!! This is the place to come to bring yourself down to earth with a bang..
