How are you lot feeling about Sunday then? A lot of people I speak to are making you favourites, which is unusual, to say the least, for a Championship club against a SL club. But probably deserved.
I only saw you when you played us (Leeds) last season, but you were terrific that day, and probably a bit unlucky not to get something out of it. I've had the chance to watch you this season, and you look like a SL team, not a Championship team. I can't see any way you won't get promoted, and the club seems to be building towards a sustainable set up to let you stay up once you're up.
What I especially like is that, as well as some really skilful players, you've got a right nasty, mongrelly forward pack that seems to really get under opposition's skins. Personally, I like to see that, and it will help when you play the SL clubs - it certainly ruffled some feathers at Leeds last year.
Good luck for Sunday, I feel sorry for Wakey at the moment, but I hope the Leigh adventure continues!
One big positive for me over last couple of weeks is Worthington starting to find form, along with Pownall's form since coming into the team. If those two can build a partnership, we'll have an even more formidable backline, as there'll be less emphasis on the left side.

Thanks pal, a great post and it certainly is how we play. We have a squad that is capable to play in any conditions against opposition under any tactics. However i hope we have dry land on Sunday so we can show the RL world what we are all about.

Dont come on here with comments like this.You will make us big headed and arrogant. Everyone else tells us you never got out of second gear.
Good luck to yourselves in your cup run. Looking forward to beating you in the final like we always do.

To be fair, I think we were guilty of taking you too lightly. Once you start in that frame of mind it's difficult to step up. It wasn't our best performance, but I don't think anyone watching the game could really convince themselves that we deliberately "just did enough"! Like I say, we were a bit lucky to get out of it with the win.
