I don't see leigh really threatening any of the SL sides. They've signed a bunch of cast offs but that doesn't make them a good team. rovers have an easyish set of fixtures so will be fine. hudds may struggle more than rovers

I'm not sure about that. This is not a spiteful comment, truly, but Rovers are really an ordinary side. There pack is woeful, Albert Kelly can be a gem, when he wants to play. There backs can score tries but defence is rubbish. Liegh last season really hashed it up, I for one don't think they'll approach the middle8's with the same mindset. Hindsight, they say is a good thing???

The order the fixtures were played in killed Leigh last year. I think they played 3 sl teams first which knocked the stuffing out of them. Might be different this year if tv doesn't see them as an attractive proposition.
