Don't get me wrong I want to beat them. But I just don't seem as excited and nervous as I usually am for a derby. I think its because I'm too excited for Wembley.

not that bothered about it tbh. as others have said i'm more concerned with staying injury free for wembley.
i'd be tempted to field 2nd string pivots in case our red neighbours want to scupper our chances with rough house tactics in a fit of jealousy.

well i wanna win, we leapfrog above them and catalans i think

well Pearson is bothered and so should all of us. this is our season we are talking about. we have shown that we can beat top teams in knock out rugby so why not have a proper bash at the playoffs too.

A must win game imo, 4 games left and I'd guess we need to win 3 of them to get a home game in the first round.

I'm not as bothered as i am for a derby as in the past.

Yes i want to win the game but if we don't rest some players then i can see us picking up some injuries in this game. Rovers will be up for it after what has happened in the past and knowing that were going to Wembley, some of the players will target some and maybe have a few cheap digs.

But as i said, yes i wanna win as it will put us level on points with dobbins and will leapfrog them once again, and then rest players for Salford.

If the Widnes game was a 'must win' game then why isn't next week? Whats all this crap about not being bothered if we win? What happens if we don't win the cup & find ourselved out of the playoffs? I'd say that would be a terrible season.

6th place is up for grabs, possibly 5th if we win the next two!

Haha, cheers mate. Learn something new every day

This is ridiculous. There is no such thing as not being bothered about a game. I hope the coaching staff and playing squad don't carry the same attitude. We need to win as going into the cup final with the momentum of three wins in a row would be great and the grand final is still on the horizon if we keep in good form.

If the coaching staff shared some people's concerns about injuries then perhaps the squad should avoid any training involving tacking or sprinting between now and Wembley.

I expect PG to field the Widnes team against Rovers to maintain confidence and a winning mentality which we will need if we are to beat the Pies.

Yes we need DJ and Milky to be fit but we also need them to continue to develop a partnership as so far they've only played together twice.

Im sure all the ones saying they arent bothered wont be on here giving it the big one if you do win.

Likely team same as Friday, or did anyone take a knock? Missing McDonnell, Crooks, Horne - is that it?

Not bothered about the derby??. Really??. I expect Pearson and gentle will be expecting full blooded commitment and go all out for the win, as should every fan. Personally I'll be gutted if we lose on Sunday. Go in half hearted, risk injures imo. Wembley is the big one but come Sunday it will be last thing on my mind.
