I’d agree with that. It’s also fair to say on this occasion it’s not about what Dwyer can or cannot do. For me O’Connor earned the starting spot based on his performance last week, and Leeming is club captain and could cover half if there is a doubt over Sezer.

Totally agree re hookers. Purely on recent performances I would actually drop Leeming, captain or not.

How are Wigan's figures now? Not seen if they're still down on ticket sales from yesterday

Awful, about 6k scattered around the ground, unless there's a decent walk up tonight it'll be like a home game for you

Crazy considering it should be a belter of a match and whats at stake! Us Leeds fans always travel well so don't know why the attendance is predicted as quite low.
Be interesting to see how many turn up for Saints / Salford game tomorrow

Our away following tonight shows why super league needs a strong Leeds team. Big club. MOT

Leeds are the biggest club, we carry Super League, just look how often we’re on sky and our viewing figures.

We should though. By far the biggest city and taken into context we could do a lot better in terms of crowds. Let's hope we can average 15k next year. Regardless of tonight's outcome I'd like to think the team have shown enough over the last few months to attract both new and old fans.

That’s very surprising and disappointing given Wigan have not lost a home game all season and won the C Cup and start as decent favourites

Let's not get carried away too much with the crowd. Although Wigan have been under performing for years off-field, the general trend for play off games at all clubs is for much larger than usual travelling support and lower than usual home turnout.

I don't get why you'd go to every game all year on your season ticket and miss the last, biggest just because you need to pay but it's a longstanding trend.
