| Exquisite timing by Mr Powell and his Castleford players,last night,to remind us all that the top side can be beaten by one lower in the league and that the whole can be greater than the sum of their parts.
We have the same referee for this game at Leigh as we had at our last victorious away game - Mr Kear found cause for complaint - and the same referee as we had when we lost earlier against Leigh.
I don't expect Leigh to speed up the GLDO's then,but hope we get a fair few.
Ball security must be paramount,and markers at the PTB and defence will require full concentration.
Confident of victory - before the requirement for a last minute drop goal - and with us being allocated the south stand I reckon we may be the first away supporters to see Leigh Centurions lose from that very vantage point.
Despite me following the sound advice of Gazza - ''I never predict and I never will'' I go for an Eagles victory with the number of points not known till the teams are announced.

Good luck to Ben Musolino who starts for Doncaster tonight at Featherstone.'"
Nice reminder to our players that it will be beneficial to get a better result at the LSV than Featherstone do when they arrive to resume their war in a couple of weeks.
Every minute matters.
First game at the LSV for 5 weeks for Leigh and a 'home' debut for Higham.
Be nice to subdue their crowd before we demonstrate our ability.

| Quite surprised by the name of James Davey missing while considering Higham and Beswick but will not be surprised that the experts have a cunning plan.
Need to protect the half backs and that looks like a victorious Sheffield Eagles squad to me.
I prefer Langley at prop;should that come about.
I do hope this becomes an 'I was there' occasion.

Sheffield Eagles must beware a Leigh backlash - www.thestar.co.uk/sport/other-sp ... witterfeed
A few surprises in the selection says Tubbs. My team would be....
1. Quentin Laulu-Togagae
2. Scott Turner
3. Menzie Yere
4. Sam Smeaton
5. Rob Worrincy
6. Kyle Briggs
7. Cory Aston
8. Steve Thorpe
9. Keal Carlile
10. Mitch Stringer
11. Michael Knowles
12. Duane Straugheir
13. Misi Taulapapa
14. Dave Petersen
15. John Davies
16. Tony Tonks
17. Pat Walker
Eddie Battye and Jamie Langley miss out from the 19 man squad. Battye was set to have a rest against Batley but Tonks failed his fitness test so he had to play. Would rather have him fresh for future matches. Would have had Langers at loose forward on any other day but Misi had his best game this season last Saturday so he gets the nod from me.

| Whichever set of players can concentrate for 80 minutes and who can re-focus after each and every flare up for me.
Leigh scoring 3 tries in the 10 minutes they had a one player disadvantage,at Batley,is sufficient information that Leigh unsettle the opposition by the same tactic.
It will be as mentally challenging as physically challenging.
Gonna be good,though.

I also think we've got to remember that this game doesn't make or break our 2015. Still quite a few important games to be played leading up to the Super 8's.

Absolutely.
Just their unbroken home record to lose.
Oh,and not letting any side do the double over us.

| Betting Update
The Bookies have leigh as 1/7 favs and the eagles 5/1 to win the handicap is 16 Points (I am slightly surprised as i thought it might be around the 20 mark) I dont share the forum optimism Leigh need to win more than we do they should have a big crowd being the first home game for 5 weeks I would much rather win in the middle 8's than today
The rest of the days championship matches Bradford (32 point favs) and London (24 point favs) should win their matches,interesting match up at Dewsbury who are playing Halifax should be close a draw would be good there should be another close game at Whitehaven who are playing Batley
