Tough challenge ahead, especially at the DW. Wouldn't go as far as saying a must win game but two points would be absolutely massive for our play-off push. The players have had a deserved break, however after their previous break vs Huddersfield we was sloppy, hopefully it was just one of those games!

Certainly not a must win game, as even if we lose with our fixtures we could still make the play offs and it's certainly our hardest game. Must make sure if we do get beat we keep it tight as points difference could play a big part this season.
Can't see too.much change, probably Sao for Fash and Sutcliffe for Lovodua with Scott moving to the back row and Lane to the bench.

Massive game in terms of a push for the play offs, a win would certainly put us in a stronger position, a loss wouldn't be the end of the world but increases the difficulty in making the 6. Hopefully the flat and disjointed performance against Huddersfield after the last break is a lesson learnt.
Another game that is a real test to see how far we've come in terms of mental toughness, attitude and consistency since appointing TS.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!
need to be at it from minute 1, no sloppiness like the start of the Hudds match, hopefully Wigan will be effected by the break more than us (training session v the dobbins week before wembley)
Is there any news on if Tex is fit? If 100% id run with him.
Tex & Litten Sutty, Carlos & Scott
The centres are picked by who smith thinks will do the best job in the back row i think. Hard for Scott to find a consistent position when he can cover a few
Genuinely think they’re the first selection decisions a coach has had to make in a good few years. It’s finally nice to have some competition.
Do we think Staveley makes an appearance this week? He got injured at the wrong time and I think that probably his shot gone for a few weeks

Agree with that , After the last break we were really poor .

Any news on Swift he was hobbling at the end of our last game, big loss if he’s missing, very difficult game as per with the pies, but it would be a terrific boost to our play off chances if we could defy the odds.
