That's really bad news. I was hoping to see Currie in the 4 nations. Top young player hope he makes a full recovery soon.

Really disappointing if only a couple of hundred, club are putting on free travel and it's the biggest league game of the season so far, for just a league game on a Friday we took around 1500 to Warrington.
I'd think a good crowd from Wire, when they played us in 2011 to win the LLS they packed out the North stand. Will the Wigan game affect the wire players mentally? People go on about mental toughness in sport a lot these days. We're hearing a lot about FC being mentally drained by our Challenge Cup final win last month but what about Wolves? They had one hand on the League Leaders' Shield when leading 28-14 against a Wigan side down to 12 men. Will that have an effect? Will it put doubts in the minds of their players? As for us, Friday's performance has to be a 100 times better than the last 2 games (I don't count the Saints game because I think we all knew we'd be beaten the week after the CC Final and with the players we rested.) We have to cut out our errors and up the tempo, and not let Wire control the ruck. Another battle of the hookers on Friday, Clarke I think made over 200m against Wigan? We need to control that area and get Houghton running at their defence. There's so much more at stake than the LLS, the loser of Friday's match will probably end up 3rd and have an away tie in the semi. Same team as the CC final if all are fit.
THE HARD TIMES ONLY MAKE THE GOOD ONES BETTER
TO ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS, WE MUST NOT ONLY ACT, BUT ALSO DREAM; NOT ONLY PLAN, BUT ALSO BELIEVE
East and West Stand sold out and West getting to capacity - talk of opening the upper tier in the West Stand!!!! Could be the biggest ever Super League Non-derby attendance.I If you haven't got a ticket there is still time to do so.................... LET'S BACK THE BOYS.....................
Would put out the 17 from Wembley. Huge atmosphere, pre match lights show, get an tenor to sing Old Faithful and Nessum Dorma pre match, then lights off for the team to come out to fire jets (anyone who has seen Wales RU at the Millennium Stadium will know how good they look).
Win the game, then parade the LLS with the cup post match. Job's a good 'un!
