| Do wigan still have a lot of injuries? I think we'll probably lose but I'm not too worried as long as we don't lose heavily. We're still a long way off our best with ball in hand so think we will struggle to score many against them plus they move the ball wide well and quickly which has been our achilles heel in recent seasons as our wingers seem to get sucked infield too easily.
One we're capable of winning but I have a feeling we won't. We're moving into a tough run of games now which will define our season and we have to come out of it with plenty of points or we may struggle to get into the top 4
wigan a
warrington a
salford h
leeds h
leigh a
cas h
warrington h
Very tough set of fixtures and we need to be looking to win at least 4 if we're to stay in touch at the top of the table (if you replace the leigh fixture with rovers away, we won 5 of the corresponding games pre the split last year)

Wigan picked up a couple more injuries today apparently, including O'Loughlin.

I fancied Salford today, so backed them with 9 start.
Got a decent side there, they have a bit of ambition and certainly the right result in the MPG.

Think Salford could surprise a few teams this season, know how to scrap for a win.

| Think Wigan drawing today will make them even more focused for next week.
Not a good result for us in that respect.

Wigan are there for the taking on Friday and i expect us to win.
Warrington will pose the bigger test for me as they look to get back on track which they will.

| Looking at their players out (although we have 4 out) I think we should be winning on Friday.

| Wigan on Friday should be a game we should have a very real chance of winning. However for some reason the weaker Wigan are the harder they become to beat for us. They have that dogged attitude and an 'Its them against the world attitude' which works very well for them on top of the skilled art of bending the rules as much as they can during a game. We need quick PTB's and to up the speed at which we've been playing as when we pick up the speed and intensity we are a very different team. Problem is Wigan are the perfect exponents of slowing the game down when they need to and getting away with it
Wigan seem to have our number as wins away at Wigan are a very rare thing indeed.
