Bradford are capable of doing one over on us.

Confidence is rightly sky high, but i would never asume that we have already won the game. If we turn up like the last few weeks then yes we will win.

But we need to turn up

It will be a tough game and I don't think we should take anything for granted.

It's never nice going to Odsal and I don't think our record there in recent times is particularly good apart from 31-30 and last seasons scrappy win.

Interesting game on Friday.

Im really looking forward to seeing what Steve Mcnamara can come up with tactically to break down the Wigan defence and some may argue that he does have the tools to do the job...the big question for me is does he have the brains to do it?

Matt Orford needs no introductions, on his day he's capable of unlocking any defence and in Kearney he has a dangerous runner who is starting to get to grips with his half back partner although personally i do think he is more suited to the full back position.

Heath L'Estrange is another quality import to add to the combination of Orford & Kearney and if those get the opportunity to place some sustained pressure on the Wigan line then we will need to be at our best to keep them out.

Micheal Maguire will know the Manly contingent well and i just think that Wigan will be too hot for Bradford on Friday although i expect a close game.

Wigan by 10.

Judging by some of the posts on here there'll be some very red faces if Wigan lose.

Wigan will be favourites, no doubt about that but complacency can be dangerous. If some of you lot are dismissining the match as an easy win there's a possibility it'll be be in the back of players minds too.

As we've all seen over the past year or so any game can be a potential banana skin even if you've been playing well.

I feel a little uneasy about Friday tbh(but then I do most weeks).

Odsal is a horrible place to go and play(and watch) imo and the atmosphere just isn't there anymore. They aren't the force they were but they still have very dangerous players and players capable of tearing you apart on their day. If Wigan go into the game anything less then 100% committed they'll get stung imo because Bradford will be bang up for it.

I would say if the commitment is as good as it has been so far though we should have enough to win the game. I watched the Bradford and Castleford game a couple of weeks back and it was a very poor standard. I think Bradfords confidence will have improved since then though so we could be facing a different side.

Your Saints Game and our Warrington game pretty much on par this year
Your Castleford and our Hull K.R game see above
Your Salford Game and our Catalan game see above
Your Huddersfield game and our Crusaders game is the only real differance

Its going to be a very hard game for Wigan given the state of the pitch and i would not like to pick a winner but i know who i would like to win.

Castleford-Hull K.R even though you nilled them , they aint a bad team. Castleford never show up without no dis-respect to them.

St's are alot stronger than warrington in all aspectes.

I think alot of peoples confidence stems as much from Bradfords fall from grace as it does from Wigans improvment.

With all due respect this isn't the Bulls side of 4 or 5 years ago we'll be going facing on Friday night. It's a team with a couple of very good players in it and plenty of honest pro's. When we used to visit Bradford we'd be facing a side littered with World class talent and full of massive blokes.

I would not say they are at the moment maybe later in the season but Saints have not been playing well so far and Warrington have been on fire. Without trying to upset to many fans i think maybe Warrington at the same point in the season is possibly the harder to beat of the 2 teams.

And we did not nil Hull K.R.
