The main thing we need to change by Sunday is injury recovery for the likes of Arona and ball skills so our passing is more crisp.
If we put the amount of ball down that we did at Rovers against Warrington they will kill us off in no time.
It's winnable...... But we need to be at our best

The trouble with renting from a football club is that you can only play there when they say so. Check out the pies fixture list. They play HKR on may 15th and then don't have another home fixture till July10th.

To be fair this break might be a blessing in disguise, another week without a game for our battered squad to recover from their various knocks and injuries (and practice catching)

Though I'm not expecting to get much change out of Wire, they've come out of the traps strong and look like a really well balanced unit, plenty of grunt in the pack and guile in the backs.

Baptism of fire on Sunday but these are the very games when we get given no chance and come away maybe not the win but with a lot of credit for our performance.Here’s hoping anyway .

Sunday is likely to be a very different game due to the weather, if it does go ahead. There will be mistakes galore and whichever team can hang on to procession will take the spoils.

After the way we played against both Saints and Wigan we’d be far happier facing you in better conditions but I’m sure that both clubs will want to get this one out of the way, especially Wakey since you’ve already missed last weekend.

How well does you’re pitch drain?

Very well, usually....I believe part of the base is cinders from the old power station many, many years ago ??

I was told that its Victorian engineering under that pitch and the skills to replicate it have long gone.

That could be rubbish ofcourse, I was told it in the chippy.....


But it drains incredibly well.

Needs to be played. Weather should be a leveller.

Wire at 60% of what they showed against Saints, beats Wakey at 100% of what they showed against HKR.

So to have a chance, we have to be *significantly* better - and they have to be significantly worse; which seems unlikely.

I think that we all have to hope that what we showed against KR isn't seen again this season - it was awful (understatement).
The most worrying aspect about the game was it's similarities with London away, last season. Although our passing and kicking game were arguably worse.
Right now, we just hope that Toronto dont get up to speed any time soon.
