I hope not but this weekend could be the one to kickstart your season. We have been rubbish for most of the season, how we are 2 points off top is beyond me. There is no way we can get a big score against any SL side at the moment as our attack is simply not working.
The key to Saturday is the first 20. If you can get off to a good start and a bit of confidence (and I know you have not played well this season) you are more than capable of beating us.
Sam Tomkins presumably starting this weekend will add a different factor to Wigan's attack.
Thing is we are struggling down the middle in defence, just like in last year's GF, however it's not in Wigan's style to march down the middle with their props. The key is our edges in defence with that being Wigan's strong point in attack with their 2nd rowers/centres/Tomkins linking in and surely JJB can't be picked their again or you'll have a field day (even a rusty Sam Tomkins vs JJB at 2nd row frightens the life out of me after last week). Could really do with Moon back (not even sure if he's got a chance though) so we can shift Keinhorst to 2nd row who'll give us tons of energy, enthusiasm and more mobility in that position.
