Some of the Wigan sides may struggle with players going to Headingley for the playoff off semi.

I'm having to miss our fixture v Pats as are a couple of my team mates and a few Pats boys.

Orrell should pick up the points based on this.

More than likely.

askam have a tough trip saturday and i believe adlington and farnworth has been switched to a farnworth home game

Come on West Bank your being to reserved on Div2 forum,wats happened to you,u been on the chill pills pal,

He's all posh now he goes to play against posh clubs

It's a bit hard for him to have banter on his own!

Don't know how Adlington were unbeaten before Saturday but they got their loss in the end. Anyone dare to bet against the 3 Widnes teams being the top 3 come the business end of the season...? All 3 have settled squads and dont rely on players from elsewhere (Wizards etc)

Discuss.....

If that's a dig at Woolston, unfortunately we're the only team in Warrington who don't get many players from the Wizards come the end of their season. We had one lad who has played with Woolston since being a junior and he may be joined by one other! For sone reason Bank Quay appears to be team they all choose to play winter rugby for.

Id say the 3 Widnes teams have excellent chances of finishing at the top. We, Woolston, as Coley has stated, have never and will never rely on Wizards players. We are our own club.

Our start to the season has seen us playing catch up almost immediately. We have had a bad start to the year with injuries and unavailability which has seen us playing lads totally out of position and leaving us light "upfront" ie our back row has been filled with centres, etc

That said West Bank thoroughly deserved to beat us but we were very poor against Askam and woeful against Adlington, not taking anything away from those 2 teams though!!

Not at all a dig fella, I was just using the Wizards as a local example. It happens to teams across the NWC mate. As for Woolston, I always thought you were a good side, do you think a year in D2 will serve you well, before hoping to push on for next season? What are your u18/u17's like? West Bank are obviously doing well at the minute, but the weather conditions (at places like Adlington, Askam etc) will be a stern test for anyone.

What are people's opinions on 18-0 walkovers in D2? I think its disgusting, there are teams in D3, D4 who would get a side every week would defo fulfil fixtures, My Opinion is they should be thrown out!

I don't think ANY are coming Bank Quay
Who is coming BQ from the Wizards
