It's all about peaking at the right time. Leigh probably just getting by and still not firing on all cylinders,probably the same for KR.

But with each match as we all know in these middle 8's carries a new level of intensity and expectancy. Let's hope we see that tomorrow and it's a cracker.

You can keep your cracker, would rather put 50 on you then it be a tight cracker that we lose.

Don't think this game is all about the result.

I couldn't disagree more, it couldnt be more about the result if it tried. Balls to good performance and narrow defeats now, play boring 1 up rugby all you like if it gets us the points from here in. We need to beat 2 SL sides and this is our 1st opportunity, we need to grab it with both hands.

Don't get me wrong Stan, I'll take a poor win tomorrow over a classy loss.
But if I come away after watching us compete for 80 min and looking something like a SL team, Mrs Bilton won't have to lock the cutlery draw.

If on the other hand we capitulate with no fight or game structure, we will have wasted the 23 "practice matches" we've played since February.

Win at all costs. I don't care how.

Must admit that our HB combo is giving me nightmares at the mo. Neither Atkin nor Marsh are good enough against SL. Praying Sheens plays Blair at HB. Not flashy but steadies the ship and still has a good kicking game. Then swap in Atkin to change style for short periods.

There are some at Leigh, who wish James Green would show enough fire to smack someone!

I am surprised he can get out of bed, the lazy T₩@T !

Don't know what he's like in training, but he's one of our players who hasn't really been given much chance to show what they can do on the pitch.

Our best chance is to employ a sniper and shoot Ellis.
Despite the world's most flukey 40 20.

Listening on blunderside, every time his name is mentioned any excitement I have quickly fizzes away
