[Eleftherios 240]

Warrington by 18.

[meast 1,429]

Jerry, Ukuma and Gaskell back for us, Wire will still have too much for us though, I'll be happy if we make a game of it though.

[ELBOWSEYE 762]

Toby king back for wire ,hopefully mamo gets a run out.

[Aidan Putt 114]

Wire by 20+

[muckymunksy 105]

2 points either way

[Leeds Wire 756]

This time last year I went to this fixture and (as a Wire fan) it was one of the worst games I've ever seen. It was lashing down and everyone under cover was soaked by the swirling, freezing rain. 

Thankfully the forecast is better for this Friday and I hope the Wire can continue the good start to the season. These are the games we need to win to make top 5.  It will be tough with Hudds looking to fight back after 2 disappointments. 

16-22 if it's dry.

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Narrow first loss for Warrington.  24-22. 

[Ant 798]

Good weather predicted, giants welcoming back some key players 

 

Wire will most likely still have too much but I wouldn't be surprised if we picked up the points 

[The Future is League 2,416]

Wolves by 10. 

[GazTheDon 46]

I can’t see anything other than a Wolves victory.

[Wildcat 251]

Don't Huddersfield normally do well at home to Warrington?

Thought so, so while a Warrington win seems to be on the cards a Huddersfield win wouldn't be a shock. Could be an interesting game!

0-16 latest score.  Atkins, Charnley 2. Ratchford 2 conv.

 

[fevtom 561]

Pretty much as expected. Good thing Saints v Leeds is the televised match! 

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

McGillvary scores on the back of a needless King penalty.   Warrington really need to watch their discipline this season, they build a good position and then let teams back off the hook.   I hope it's over-enthusiasm that gets channeled correctly as the season goes on.

 

4-16

English over after repeated penalties given away by Warrington. 10-16.   Game On - momentum with Hudds.

[fevtom 561]

I might have spoken too soon. Game on!

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Walne sin-binned for leading with the elbow on Hill who leaves for HIA.

Wire spurn the chance to press on the line against 12 and take a shot at goal which misses.   Costly decision?

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Atkins scores after Uate misses another kick.

 

Need to make the extra man pay for the next few minutes.

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Ratchford converts and 12 point lead restored

 

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Great pass by Austin but Lineham doesn't realise the play is on.   Need to learn what Austin can do.

[Cheshire Setter 1,008]

Austin scythes through with some great individual skill. 10-26 kick to come

 

[Ant 798]

Warrington are a class above the giants tonight and will win comfortably 

 

But Childs is an absolute ###### disgrace of an official. Genuinely spoiling the game. Genuinely clueless and genuinely incompetent. He isn't why were losing at all but he is why this game is a joke.
