| Thinking about this game reminds of the CC game when Ray Price played for us. I seem to recall they took him out early doors but we gave them a game that day with a great crowd.

Yep .. 1990 … 32 years ago … lost 14-26… was my last game before getting on a plane for my first trip to Aus… I also remember a cup QF game at Wigan in 2004 which was a tight affair until the pies pulled away in the final few minutes lost 20-4
In my experience as a Trinity fan this is the third time we’ve played Wiggoon in a QF… third time lucky?!?!?

| Wigan tend to be most threatening on the edge of the middle.
The props are not big meter makers but work very hard in defence.
Bateman isn’t the player he once was but he still clocks up big meters and Farrell week in week out posts big meters.
Our centres and halves in defence will be in for a busy day I expect however if they can win that battle it will go a long way to laying a platform for a win.

| Come on down folks
£15 a pop for one of our biggest games in recent history is a bargain, an absolute bargain

| If we can create that first 40 against Salford we will give ourselves every chance of a semi finals date . Recreate that second half display or the first half against Leeds and Wigan will have a field day .we are More than capable of causing an upset , they’re certainly not the Wigan of old but are still a well drilled side without brimming with the superstars of yesteryear .Obviously they still have a few quality strike players ,but so have we and having home advantage will make Wigan wary and not take us lightly. Playing five drives and a kick will be manner from heaven for Wigan , and will take a stranglehold on the game .Give it some air and some off the cuff moves ,get amongst them . Its been done to death ,but error /penalties free play is the key to success against one of the best defending teams in the comp. I’m quietly confident on this one , I’m sure Willy will have them fired up and the players will respond accordingly.

'Give it some air' and 'off the cuff' do not go with 'error free play'
You have to accept errors if you want to push it but as long as your defense is ready you can do it.

Think under this coaching set up 5 drives and a kick have gone seen more open football at the beginning of this season than in last two year .Even our own fans were saying we were the most boaring team in S L
