Remember Stanks interview on sky before the game saying the same thing, then we embarrased em out wide time after time...

Also the wide players seem to have handling issues. It would appear that whether its with ball in hand or off the boot, out wide is where to go.

Not really sure what you would say Barrow's weakness is. They gave loads of possession away through dropped balls and also gave loads of penalties away - not sure they'll be so sloppy in the final. I reckon they will go for the safe approach against us - play mainly down the middle and try to wear us out. They'll probably give very few penalties away and also rely on their tight defence. Having said that Liam Campbell is out for the season, from what the commentators said, Catic will almost certainly be banned, Holt is also currently out injured, Brocklehurst has been sacked and Rooney wont be elligible to play in the final.

Certainly won't be easy and I'm not sure why we're favourites, but with our new recruits (since the last Barrow game), players that have returned from inury, training sorted out, performances on the up, Barrow having several players missing - our chances are certainly a lot better than what they were a few months or even weeks ago.

Penned by Cyndi Lauper and fantastically covered by Eva Cassidy. In fact, one of her best covers...

Behave Fingerpost, you senile old git.

We're going to be in a massive battle next week against Barrow.

I dont mean to sound negative but if harrison gets a lot of possession he could cause us A LOT of problems
espically with our backs maybe not being the best in defence

Who?

Let's hope that Toa is marking him then, he'll pummel his head into the turf.

i would start toa on the bench against barrow, because every time we play them he just wants to fight with there centre or stand off.

Sky + this game as I was away with work - worth watching or a big fat delete!?

Delete it was poor.

Please start with Toa, please.

For what it's worth, I make Widnes big favourites for the final. With all our injuries (Campbell, Holt, Ostler) ,disciplinary issues (Brocklehurst, Catic) and ineligiblity of Rooney, we'll most probably have to draft in 2 or 3 academy players to make the numbers up.

I think our best chance is to get the ball out wide. That's how we started the season and when we played best.

I don't think it'll really sunk in that we're in a final until I'm sat on my seat at Bloomfield Road.

One thing's for sure - it'll be an amazing atmosphere.

Didnt we hammer you guys at home ???????
however sunday will be a different game weve got a couple struggling at the mo.

Yes, it's Barrow - 2 Widnes - 0 so far this season.

But it was Fax - 2 Widnes - 0 before the semi final. We're a different team now.
