Well will it be third time lucky?

With a decent ref and performance like yesterday... definitely. Fall for the sneering and grubby stuff and it'll be no

If we play like yesterday, yes.

We know what sort of game it will be. Unpleasant, lots of screaming, shouting, and sledging. Just got to ignore it. You just have to look at the clubs social media account to realise how they're going to try unsettle us. Even the coach is trying to turn everything against us with social media antics. A club I'm starting to dislike unfortunately. Can you imagine if John Kear quoted an angry Workington fan on social media to paint the opposition in a bad light or the clubs offical accouunt doing the same. Classless.

We have a ref as strong as yesterday, and not another useless Mcmullen, Workington's main tactic is out of the window.

Same 17 again. Come out and rip in. We're better than them. Go out and bully them! Bring it on.

I expect a much closer game on Sunday. Hopefully Kear can get the tactics right and the players will need to be patient. Give Workington a head start and I can see us being in for a disappointing afternoon. On paper we should have the measure of them but that hasn't been the case in the previous two encounters so another 80 min performance will be required to get over the line.

Bulls to beat Worky, Worky to beat Swinton, more social media shenanigans next season.

Looking forward to the game. Hopefully this time we'll have enough on the bench. I'd be tempted to play the same side as yesterday. The only possible changes I'd consider might be Hallas for Lilley to add a bit more defensive starch but that impacts on us in an attacking sense and maybe Bustin for Kirk but Kirk's defence was superb yesterday.

If Egodo is out then Hitchcox in the centres and Grant on the wing or Oakes in the centre?

With Egodo sadly likely out, and us knowing what sort of game it will be, would anyone be tempted to put Garside in the centre and have a rotating 8/10/13 of Bustin/Crossley/Kirk and rotate them with Peltier/Green/Wood.

We got bullied the last game. Wouldn't happen with big drives from Bustin/Crossley/Peltier/Green and the defensive work rate ot Kirk and Wood.

If not then please no Dalton Grant. Pownall and Oakes are both ahead of him.

I like your idea of the big six rolling through the middle and it's probably how I'd have them play it but I can't see Kear going for this. Its a bit too obvious and as much as it would shread the nerves, I think he'll end up playing a 17 none of us would expect.

Pownall should be nowhere near the team next week. I was fairly excited when we first signed him as I remembered him being a real danger whenever we played Leigh. Don't know whats happened to him but he's a shadow of his former self and looks very low on confidence.

Garside in at centre would be ok defensively but the guy never passes so it would mean the breakthrough would be needed in the middle of the field... which is exactly where we lost the battle last time around.

I'd go with Grant at wing and Hytchcox at centre.

Hmmm... playing a guy in a position that he hasn't played all season?

The last time I remember us doing that in an absolutely crucial game was when Lowes played Matty Blythe on the wing and Jean Philipe Baile as hooker in the MPG and that didn't exactly work out so well...

Thanks for the reminder
