Wonder what the emphasis will be for round 2 against Sheff, get as many points on the board as possible, or aim to work on defence and try to keep them scoreless. Points difference is important but I think working on a strong defence and getting defensive numbers and reads right more important looking forward to facing Toulouse again, and the pseudo Canucks.
Would be ok if it was that simple, assumption is it should be a reasonably easy win. But Wardy should be thinking of next games, hence my question on what folk think the emphasis should be

our +/- is currently as good as another point when compared to Leigh. I'd put the emphasis on starting like a hurricane and blowing sheffield off the park inside the first 15 minutes and then going for a record score.....we have to work on the basis that Leigh have come good and therefore we can only currently afford to lose one more game.......stick another 70 points on Sheffield and hope that Fev do us a favour.......
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.

Agree with this sentiment. I think, blast them away early, then give some of the fringe players a run. What has happened to Fleming!
Well todays results all worked out well for us. We win tomorrow and we go second and from what I saw last weekend I cannot see Sheffield improving enough to trouble us. Bring it on.

Whilst 2nd spot will be nice, I'd have preferred Fev to end Leigh season myself.....we have Toulouse twice and Toronto away...we can't afford to drop any more points as I can't see leigh losing again this year

They're on fire right now, but two games v Toronto and a trip to Toulouse won't be easy. That said, we've got some tough games coming up too. Need a cricket score today boys!
