Agree on both points. Our squad might not be as big as Widnes, think they have over 30 odd players but imo it's got more quality. They're playing decent against Wigan tonight so far though.
Hull KR, they've had a masssive player turnover. As we know that can be a nightmare, especially the first half of the season, which is more important than ever to get off to a decent start and I'm not convinced by a couple of their big signings. Could be wrong but we'll see.

Bit off topic but great draw for Widnes that. Wigan lost it at the end there,very strange for them. 16-0 up 1 man advantage and they somehow manage to only draw. Hope this is sign of how close this season is going to be.

Think the way widnes battled tonight shows just how tight the bottom half of the table is going to be. We really have to be on our mettle from the get go.

Yes, I think Wigan almost took it for granted at half time that they were going to come out, go through the motions and win. What they didn'y exect was the fight in Widnes and also how sometimes going a man down gives a team a bit of a lift and can cause the oposition problems. Mainly because they've nothing to lose and they start to play a bit mre off the cuff.

Think we need our half backs to click and the big forwards we've now got such as Paea, Simon, Ashurst, Scruton and Kirke to really toughen up our middle defensively and give decent go forward. If that happens we will surprise a few again this season including castleford and avoid the drop.

Wigan were garbage that second half. But credit to widnes they fought hard for that point. Thought it would be a walkover with the bus wide gaps first 20 in widnes's defensive line but they patched it up.

wigan look to lack some creativity at half backs. The number 6 doesn't look ready on first showing. He drove it in well but that was about it. I'm sure wigan will be up there but think this may be there area of weakness this year.

Just bringing it back to something Wakefield related, Tautai was a real handful as usual. Just that one mistake from what I can remember, when he went without the ball near the end.

There aren't too many props either, you're correct though some teams sussed him out but some came unstuck.

Great game and a good result for 12 man Widnes. James Child ?

Give over!
I'm not having this mythology that's being built around a pretty one dimensional player. Pound for pound in a head on clash with a prop Carney comes second everytime. The only thing that allows him to ever win that type of contest is a bit of late footwork putting the prop off balance.

Carneys a big lad and a big winger but what he gains in one area makes him vulnerable in others, he's susceptible to agility and has the turning circle of an oil tanker.

Yes, I'd have him at Trinity tomorrow before you ask but gods gift to wingers he's not!

All tickets sold now just got back from the shop a lot of people wanting tickets. MC will let us know later today on twitter if you can still pay on the day. Think you will be able to pay on the day.

What was our allocation??

Wouldn't bank on it, MC tweeted yesterday that the capacity is 9,000 plus.

1,300

Wish I had seen this before a wasted journey. Club still saying on Facebook they had 150 adult/concessions after your post (so that's a lie). So I wonder how many other people wasted there time. Shop staff are belligerent and quite frankly unhelpful. Stood waiting to ask about tickets and staff are on phone angrily gesturing at customer on other end. While other staff member is stood watching her behind the till. But anyway, I was looking forward to it been pretty full. Its not the same on the radio.

Been told that MC is contacting Cas to see if they have any spare tickets left over.
