Thought this would happen, too many people talking up Leigh, saying they would finish top 8, even the bookies have been very generous tonight, much to my delight.

leigh came back well in the last 20, though Cas appeared to have eased off a bit. pleased with the acquisition of Gale and minikin for my dream team

calm down everyone it's only round 1

Leigh will come good I'm sure, don't expect them to blow anyones minds but they'll gel. Got some good players.

agreed early days for all teams

Leigh will improve as the year goes on. Widnes need a half back. If not, Betts won't last the year.
Rovers are a championship team with a handful of decent players. The lack of intensity in the championship will be Rovers undoing in the middle eights. Hopefully.

Shocked Leigh didn't win easily, after all they had a great per season

Leigh will struggle without any props,they had Hock and Tickle as starting props,they are just blown up 2nd rowers.

Wigan winning comfortably at Salford. Leigh, widnes, Salford and, probably, Huddersfield bottom 4 for me at the split

Can tell it's round 1. Every team (barring Cas) appears to be undercooked! Warrington more so than the rest!
Hope we can lay a big marker down tomorrow!

game improved in the last 15

Wakey have have had a pretty good preseason and will be looking to do the same, I'm hoping tomorrow will be the best match of the weekend

catalan as i said in the predicition thread will no way be as bad as some think. did well tonight and the walsh/myler combination looks promising. the key for them as ever will be how they go on the road. we'll get first look in a couple of weeks
