Feeling the optimism draining away a bit looking at Wire's teamsheet. Oh well.

If Sandow breaks our line I fail ymy see why you would single out Carlos when there are other d fenders there also missing him.

What of Sandlow has an absolute blinder of a game but we still win?

Brough has been available for. It's of the season, as has Lui, they don't seem to have had the major impact of ou refer to.

If ere are clearly missing such a key player, just how have we made it 12/13 and to the top of the league?

Your glass is not half empty, it's positively bone dry.

Back on topic, Westwood is a bit miss for them.

Dont let it, looking at that bench, im more optimistic, radford gets the interchanges right and we have no in game injuries, think our bench could win us this

Looks good, but so do we, I would say our pack including the bench players is stronger, backs pretty even, they have the bud advantage in the halfs though, if we can keep them quite by winning the forward battle we have a chance.

I still fancy Warrington, but I also wouldn't be surprised to see us win it, need to improve on our last 3 games though it they will only be I've winner.

We match them in the three quarters & our pack is better, as is our bench, we just need to not let sandow play the game at the pace he wants.

Really can't wait for this game and I think that the analysis of most on here is spot on. Jullien has been great for us but I'd sooner be facing your pack with a fully fit Hughes and Westwood

Wire bench tells the story of where the team is at. Wire much bigger bench.
If there are questions whether Ellis will play prop, then therein lies the difference between the two teams.
Wire win by 12-18 with home advantage, but I think this will be a high scoring affair for both teams.

Talking of glasses its seems by your senseless reply you have had too many already this evening
I am not singling out any of our team i am referring to the impact the half backs named have on their teams when fit.
Its my opinion that to take this team to the next level we need a top 6.
The example is when Brough is playing for Huddersfield they are a very good side.Take out Brough like last week and they are not he same team.
Put Danny Brough into our team and we go up another level

Cox & Bailey v frank & Bowden? With washy & Thompson I think our bench is better & bigger our whole pack is better, we have not put a full 80 minute performance in yet, & we are top of the league, it's our to lose imho.

reckon it'll be a complete shitfight for 60 odd minutes then it'll open up. Reckon Scotty T could make the difference running at a tired wire pack.
