Hi missus might not be too happy though.

We have scored 3 tries from that kick to the middle so far this season!

Mathers will not have a chance with 4 players running at him!

We must kick him to death and he won't stand a chance. We should keep Riley quiet by putting pressure on him as well.

You never know - she might be - you know what they say about practise makes perfect!

We've had plenty of threads on this. He was keen, he wanted to be good, and he seemed to love playing, but enthusiasm isn't enough when you're a professional, and it's your job. I genuinely want him to be successful, but not at our expense. Let's also not forget, Mathers and Higham have more Challenge Cup Winner's Medals than our lot!!

He'll be fired up against us on Saturday, he always is. He does still flap a bit though...

A few chips over the top would be the order of the day for me.

We put a kick through the line about 40m out in the friendly which Sam Tomkins chased through. It was a 50/50 ball between him and Mathers but Mathers was like a Rabbit in the head lights and just seemed to bottle it.

Mathers has got good skills but he's prone to the odd gaff and I think his past injuries still play on his mind in those 50/50 situations.

Like I said earlier I like him and theres no need for some of the sh*t he takes off the Wigan fans but we must target him on Saturday night.

8 Mins.

He always tried his best for Wigan and took alot of typical unfair abuse, which contributed to his downfall.

However, if we kick him to death on Saturday, I think we will get plenty joy.

I felt sorry for Richie when he came in for the pre-match talk in the South Stand bar, he was boo'd by a small ut noticeable portion of the people in there. You could tell he was upset by that. Was uncalled for imo.

personally from what I've seen he always seems comfortable in the air, it's the grubbers he struggles with.

I think he is fine with the basics of the position, but once he makes a mistake he goes to pieces.
