Tom Armstrong , one of my favorite players for me player of the year Last Season ,Tom has again been putting in some Quality performances ,I think he was rested on Sunday against Worky , but along with Riddys and Ryan ,Tom is a diamond.

Looking forward to seeing him go toe-to-toe with Menzie.

We contested well at your place last season, we've improved since then and so have you. Big, wide pitch as you've previously mentioned. All the makings of a brilliant encounter.

Any team news ?

Leigh Centurions squad declaration:
1 Gregg McNally, 2 Adam Higson, 3 Greg Worthington, 4 Tom Armstrong, 5 Liam Kay, 6 Martyn Ridyard, 7 Ryan Brierley, 9 Bob Beswick, 12 Tommy Goulden, 13 Sam Barlow, 15 Jonny Pownall, 16 Michael Platt, 20 Sam Hopkins, 21 Jamie Acton, 22 Andrew Dixon, 23 Martin Aspinwall, 26 Gareth Hock, 27 Lewis Foster, 29 Jake Emmitt.

It appears incongruous to have the player I respect,Andrew Dixon,named amongst the others.Quite respect Ridyard.
They still have Hopkins on loan from Wigan - surprised they haven't had a lot more of their players ripping it up in Super League.

Sheffield Eagles squad: Togagae, Taulapapa, Turner, Yere, Smeaton, Worrincy, Briggs, Brambani, Battye, Carlile, Tonks, Knowles, Langley, Thorpe, Aston, Davey, Davies, Walker, Stringer

Pretty much full strength, then.

Hock and Barlow against Misi and Tonka. Seconds out, round one.

No contest TCD, didn't you see Misi's lethal headbutt against Hunslet?

Statistics and Betting Update
Interesting but very tough game for us today if we repeat the perfomance of last monday we have a slight chance however Leigh have only lost once (was at the keepmoat) since the beginning of last season they have won every match this season by 12 points or more, however they have not come up against a defence as good as ours this season but unfortunately they have a slightly better defence than ours and have conceded just a fewer points than us this season.

Prediction Leigh by 10
Bookies have Leigh favourites by 12 you could argue a case for backing Sheffield +12 but i am happy to enjoy the match without having a bet

In other matches can doncaster finialy get a victory possibly not but not sure dewsbury should be 14 point favourites

Will Featherstone lose again ? quite possibly they have a tough match at Batley and are only 2 point favourites.

Bradford 20 point favourites home to London which seems slightly high but hopefully they can do us a favour and win

Halifax should win comfortably home to workington they are 22 point favourites

relegation battle at hunslet against Whitehaven hunslet are playing the better rugby at the moment but 10 point favourites is slightly high
