It's a free hit this game really. We've done brilliantly to get to 3/4, and nobody will begrudge a defeat against a Wigan team this strong. As ever, if I see pride in the shirt, which I have in bags this season, then I'll be happy. I hope the players feel no pressure and just go out and enjoy themselves.
On another note, I have a friend coming to see her first game. Where should I advise her to park? I normally walk up, and I can't meet her beforehand for reasons to complicated to explain.

This is an interesting match, Wigan must be very confident going into this one.

And JJR that’s not counting Hill, Harvard, Eseh, Nsemba nor Makin. Sort of RL version of land banking!?
Given everything it is crazy to think SRD could be top on Thursday!!!?!? Can’t see it but hey it’s the hope that dies last. 😧

Would prob need to be there about 6.30 though to guarantee a space. 2) Park just behind Brookhouse Cemetery on Verdant Lane and walk 15 minutes. 3) Park in Peel Green (on one of the streets opposite St Michael's club) and walk 20 mins. Whatever time it takes you to walk up to the ground you'll more than save it queueing to get in and out before and after the game.

Agree with Kitch. Another free hit here for us like Saints. 100% effort from the lads and I'll be happy. Discipline gonna be huge again because if we get hammered with pens and 6 again's Wigan will punish us.
Wigan look head & shoulders above everyone else this year with regards to squad depth and don't appear to have any weaknesses. I'm tempted to whack a tenner on them to do the treble.

Reports suggesting Gil Dudson on loan which seems a strange move!

At 34 is he better than Helliwel and is he fit?

I’d take dudson for the year. Wire aren’t keen but he was good with us and he’s the size and aggression we need

Parking at Salford Roosters is easy too and get to have a pint there.

This is much needed, he's not in his prime but brings go forward and vast experience. This is a good move if we can keep his discipline in check.

At 34 is he better than Helliwel and is he fit? Nothing wrong with Dudson, Sidlow is never fit and Hellewell comes on as a smaller Prop to run at defences. We need a Prop to contain opposing teams forwards and do the hard yards. Who else is available our options are very limited.

Great signing that. Grafter and adds some bulk. And he will forever be remembered for setting up that try for Lee Mossop which confirmed a Grand Final spot in 2019.

Or do what I did last time against Cas. Park in The Trafford Centre. Let her have some retail therapy and then get the bus to the stadium. It was a free bus against Cas. Don’t know if it still is.
