I know Wire are a decent team but I’d be bitterly disappointed if we lost to them in a few weeks. Their only real threat is Clark or Austin but both are quite predictable in how they play
The Widdop injury should knock a bit of wind out of their sails as well. On the flip side we should have a real buzz about us if we assume the new lads get through the friendlies fit and we play some decent stuff.
I was surprised to read on the Wire board earlier how a lot of their fans weren’t looking forward to the season. They’ve made a huge signing in Widdop, Gelling will improve them and they’re a good chance of a trophy. Maybe a low expectation level will help them break the OT curse.
