I like the way Agar has talked up the game. Just express yourselves, you've nothing to lose. That has to be the right way. No point in in trying to outhink them or outmuscle them. Approach should be tough in defence and cavalier in attack, and you never know,

Every champion side loses unexpectedly. It's always the game where they take their eye off the ball. I'll be happy if the game is close and entertaining.

Sorry but i think this could be way out. I saw some stats about their win rate without him, and it was staggering (to me least). I can't remember what it was but I don't think it was top eight form. Certainly not too four anyway. Something like 4 wins from 11, but no idea where I saw it.

Classy Cas gave them a run for their money so there's hope for any team, admittedly they will need to spill the ball quite a bit but it's up to our pack to put them under pressure. If we roll over and do a Hull K.R. then I fear we will lose to all the top 8 candidates this season.

I think that Wigan are more than "top 8 candidates" and anything against them would be a HUGE bonus.
It's how we perform against the lower teams and those around us that will define the season and we
certainly need to improve on the poor form shown against Hull and Salford.
Although it was great to beat Cas, that isn't exactly a mark of progress, bearing in mind their current
state.

We have a quality side, one that CAN beat ANY side on its day. That day will come when you least expect it, when the opposition is expected to walk it, when they have a few players out or rested and when our side are at full strength and coming off the back of a dismal performance.

TRB - I agree we are a classy side and on our day can match and beat anyone trouble is Hudds apart we aint done our selves justice so far for 80 mins this season.
We proved last season we can score trys with and against the best trouble is we can let them in with the worst at times.
We need to get back to that will to win mentality we had at the back end of last season and damn sharp.

No Kirmond according to Yorkshire radio. The task just got a lot harder

Sounds like they are without Richards.

Danny k and Reece L not in the 17

Lee Smith starting which is a bonus. We seem to have more of a spark when he is on the field

What radio station will it be on?

Missed the vote but i think we will win.

Ali on the bench. Hopefully it won't be a one off. Starting second row of Mellars and Anakin.

Yorkshire radio

Cracking start.

10 -0 to Wigan after 6 minutes ouch

Cricket score anyone?

Shocking - missed kick off - try.
2 penalties - try.

All the things we need to get right just to compete we are getting all wrong!

Poore sent off.

Farrell throws punch at Poore, Poore flattens him. Farrell stays on field?!

But we got a pen from it.

Bad reffing apparently , Farrell punched first but got let off

Who is the Aussie that sounds drunk?
