we could well end up with perfect weather conditions for saturday but then get a fool of a ref that could ruin the game..one springs to mind straight away

Garry Schofield says
"Warrington look to destroy teams in the first 40 minutes but that won’t happen with Wigan. They are superbly organised on defence and if they wrap up the Wolves playmakers Lee Briers and Michael Monaghan and stop the threat from their dummy runners, Tony Smith’s men will get frustrated."
Mr Schofield, any idea what this is all about which happened during the first 40 mins in our last challenge cup game against Wigan ?
The link includes video evidence just incase you think someone has made a mock up BBC web page just to prove you wrong.

Just incase someone says that Wigan are a different side under Michael McGuire, we blew them away at the DW stadium as well.

| It's the first positive thing I think I've ever seen him say/write about Wigan so it's not bias by any means.
He's right in what he says in terms of us being a better side then the ones you've been blowing off the park but then your better then any of the sides we've been grinding out results against recently.
The games so tough to call and both sides are brilliant in their own ways. I'd say home advantage tip the scales towards youselfs.
Roll on Saturday.

Have heard this a few times and really don't see it. The competition coming from down the table really isn't that intense, Huddersfield look shot for starters.
On Schofield, he's entitled to his opinions but they've been proven wrong and many an occasion before.

no he didn't, it was in such a bad state of ruin in 1945 that he shot himself
took about 10 years to get back to the level it was before he took over

| Losing Harrison is a bot of a blow, but a fresh Morley should make up for it.

| Wigan will be fearful after the hammering they received from wire earlier this year, hopefully wire kickoff and smash their forwards in the first set.

| The team we have available for this game is better than the one that destroyed them at the piedome back in March. Blythe, Evans & Harrison out; Atkins, King & Anderson in with one of Higham & Clarke to make way for Cooper on the bench.
Also the Wigan team looks to be far superior this time round than in the previous match. Goulding, Marsh, Prescott, Tuson and Roberts all out; JTomkins, Richards, Deacon, 2 of Cross/Hock/Farrell all in (presuming all fit).
I think we have enough firepower to win. Their right edge of Charnley, JTomkins & Deacon (& Hansen) looks the weakness to me especially up against our left edge of King, Bridge & Myler with Hodgson round the back. We need our forwards to get on top though against what will be a much bigger forward pack this time round. Dominate the collision to prevent Wigan's spoiling tactics in defence and we could run riot. Lose the contact and Wigan could end up grinding us out the game (like Hudds, Hull & Catalans have already done to us this year). If's and but's... Roll on Friday!
ISWT!!

| Over on the Piesite, a wiganer has said that player for player they at least match us and with some they beat us. I think this is balls so here is my verdict.
Sam or Brett, Long term there is only one answer but based on this season again there is only one answer.
Josh or Joel. 2 nil to the Wire
Pat or Matt, Pat is a great kicker but sorry.......3 nil
George or Ryan, difficult but George has been playing well so 3 - 1
The other centre spot , I don't know who Wigan will play buy either way he won't be as good as Bridge 4 -1
Tommy L or Myler, close but I will give it to Richie but only just, 5 - 1 (bit of a lead here guys)
Finch or Lee, Finch is coming good but 6 - 1
Wigan's two starting Props whoever you choose against Moz and Carvell makes it 8 -1 to the Wire.
Mclorram vs Monas ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) 9-1
Ryan against Benny W, Benny is a winner (and we know it) 10-1
Hock vs Louis perhaps 10-2
Lockers Vs Grix, Simon has been great this year but clearly Lockers 10 -3
As regard the subs, both have injuries so difficult to compare.
Coaches, Smith has be wonderful for us and is building a world class team. But Madge came over from the other side of the world and turned a team of no marks into a great GF winning team, to do that in one year is a fantastic achievement. So 10 -4 (but this is closer than a mouses whisker)
What do you think?

Why are you posting on here. When this is what you posted on the drug cheats thread on virtual terrace. Surprised you're not banned to be honest.
=#FF0000No thanks, please don't post that kind of stuff on here, even if quoted from someone else.
