Leigh are proving to be what they are, a weak squad full of ageing forwards, slow backs and below average halfbacks, all lead by a coach who got the top job way too soon and isn't ready for this level. There isn't one player of theirs i'd have over ours. They'll try roughing is up early but stand up to them and we'll win by 20+.'"
I wouldn't go so far as saying any game is going to be comfortable, Leigh were solid in the first half against us and I'd expect that at home they're going to try their best to get a win. I do think we have enough to win the game, but I can't see it being the big win we all hope it will be. I'm more inclined to think it will be something like: Leigh 16 - Wakefield 22

Nah if we lose it'll be the refs fault, it always is!
Actually i'm just trying the arrogant Leigh fan style post of the last couple of years, just so they know how annoying it is!

| I think this will be our hardest game of the 3 up coming games. They will be targeting this game and their attacking first half performance against us at Belle Vue was the best I've seen against us this season. Hoping for a win but wouldn't be at all surprised if we lose.

They haven't been arrogant of late ... and they also have some great supporters.
Anyway the bookies seem to think we will win by 4 ... so they predict a very close game!

Some of them are still arrogant. Someone has said if they could get there first 17 out they would easy beat us by 20+

It's tough to be arrogant when you've lost 7 games in a row and have been kicked from the Challenge Cup by a lower league team

Some of your fans on here are saying you will win 20+ tomorrow, does that make those fans arrogant too?
Don't take it so personally, there is nothing any of us on here can do to influence the game but it is part of the fun having a guess who will win.
For what its worth 2 full strength sides IMO would be a close game.

Exactly, kinda obvious why the arrogance hasn't been as evident of late ...

Just basing it off round 12, Wakefield beat a fellow top 8 team by 20 points, and Leigh lost to a top 8 team by 22 points. Is it arrogant to suggest something similar could happen?

I think you've missed the point. I agree with you. please re-read the posts.

If you thought their first half was the best youve seen against us, you must have missed the Cas game and the pre season match agains the same opposition.

Scoring 16 would be a vast improvement on our last four games!

| Makes me laugh when people goad the opposition supporters to say something and then accuse them of being over the top and arrogant.
Leigh have some idiot posters there is no doubt, but so have we.
On the whole I quite like Leigh and their supporters. They've tidied their act up a little since they were trying to bully everyone in before promotion.
We should treat this as a 'must work hard to win' rather than a 'should win'. We have a long and illustrious history of losing when we are starting to get some form together, especially against the teams below us.
I'm sure the lads will take it seriously and we can enjoy pulling away from that middle group in the league rather than slipping back in to the dog fight.
