If its Charnley attempting to do the bumming I think you guys will be okay.

Lock it.

They have got their linch pin back, so i expect a much better performance from wigan.... i`d maybe throw this one for a good derby the week after...

we did that last time and look where it got us, a club record defeat! if we have a good go on Friday and end up keeping the score reasonable I don't think anyone can complain

You can never allow yourself to throw a game imo.
You have to go into every game with a..... we can win attitude. The thing about attitude is that you cant just switch it on and off like a light switch so, if Rovers go in to a game against a team like Wigan with a selective or negative type of attitude then they could well see themselves come unstuck and go in to the game against Hull Fc in the completely wrong frame of mind.
Winning, like losing can become a habit.

Wigan have lost 3 of the last 4 in the league, really can't see them slipping up again, can see this being a pretty heavy defeat.

yes agree but then we have the mighty hull fc we will then show our true form I hope

This game is winable, Wigan have not been in great form & Rovers have been getting better. The loss to Warrington may have dented their confidence but I doubt it. Nothing to loose so they might as well give it good crack, plus a win makes the derby result in terms of league position irelevent so we can take risks against FC & put on a good show.

The game isn't winnable at all. I appreciate the players & coaching staff can't take this attitude, but as I'm neither, I can. Limit the damage, play with pride and then concentrate on getting 6 points from the last 4 games.

Ever thought of going into motivational speaking Stan

I'm sure glad you wasn't my coach, i can just imagine what your pre match team talk would have been like.

Well if he was a coach I'm sure he would say something different, but as he isn't I think he makes a pretty salient point.

It wouldn't be the biggest shock in Rugby League if we went to the Pie Dome and won, but it is fairly unlikely.

I wouldn't go as far as unwinnable, but definitely unlikely. I just hope we aren't shown our backsides and at least put up a good performance.

So Cas & saints can beat them (both of who we have done over) why? can't Rovers. I suppose getting 6 from the last 4 means you expect to beat FC widness & London but not Leeds?

We [icould[/i get 10 from the last 5, I know - frightening.
