I know someone who has a smart car, you could borrow it.....

In relation to how many will make the trip to Wigan, I would suggest not many. It's at 8 o clock on a Monday night, it's one of the longest trips on the calendar and it's on tele. Add into that our recent form and there's not much to get people motivated to make the trip.

Widnes v saints & Catalans v cas are sky games.

Frank has managed a massive 77 .....yes I'll spell that out seventy seven...not a hundred and 77........77 tackles ALL season. He averaged 6 (SIX) a game his three games prior to the derby.
The maligned Allgood 45 tackles in the derby alone and 6th in superleague and all with a busted thumb.

Albert Kelly managed 34 in the derby. He's a half back by the way.

Frank 13th in tackles made at his own club. Is he a three quarter?

All them tackles kr made yet we still won, better luck next time, move on now this is about Wigan today now, a fan posted the games on tele it's not on sports channels, is it gold or Comedy Central?

I'm going, well actually I am already in the Wigan area, having met up with old rugby 'pie-eating' pals, something we do every year. There's a number of Rovers supporters around the area with it being a bank holiday and a fair few at the Travel Lodge me and our lass are staying at in Widnes. Long live the die-hards!

You see making fewer tackles as a negative?

You are right, I stand corrected.

Might be the football, as both games are to played at home, going to be some work to do for ground staff.

Good point well made Jake. These people do need some educating.

Strange that Danny Houghton is held in such high regard for the number of tackles he makes??

Different rules when it suits.

So shouldn't your number 9 be heavily involved in defence? Albert jelly made so many tackles as we run at him a lot, kr should run at key attacking players, maybe they won't come into the game at the end & take the spoils.

Its probably due to him being targeted by the opposition forwards, whereas Frank is avoided due to his size.
