Hard one to predict this - Cas should blow them away on paper but:

1st game of season
Leigh 1st game in SL
Gonna be showers/light snow & cold.

All considered I'm gonna go 22 - 12 to Cas.

Aside from Ryan Hampshire, most of Leigh's recruits seem to be on the wrong side of 30 or at least close to. I can see it being 18-12 to Cas at halftime with Cas winning 40-22.

Expecting nothing but a comfortable Cas win.

Still, looking forward to my first Cas away game with a small bit of hope

Apologies, but I still think Cas will be too quick and strong in the end

Having watched Cas have miserable starts to Superleague for last couple of year....
Couldnt beat Wakey 2 year ago or Hull KR last year....
I expect this to be a very close run game. Good for the neutral watching on SS.

My expectations for this game are high. Leigh looking to make an impression on SL. They have the fire and will go out all guns blazing. I expect Powell's men will show the viewers the kind of rugby we all should be playing.

Leigh to start off the smartest and look a huge threat but Tigers to run away with it. 36-12.

This ^^

I would be very happy with that but expecting it to be slightly closer.

I will go with:-
Score: 26-12
Att: 9120
MoM : Luke Gale

15 minutes already more entertaining than last nights game. Attack and defence. I hope it continues.
