Sheffield up next

Should be a good test of where we stand. Thought we were much better than the scoreboard reflected against Swinton. The Eagles have had two close games against Fax, whom The Sheep beat with the help of the referee so a comfy win will send a message. 

Dogs 22 Seagulls 10

Leigh battered Sheffield , and lost to fax. I'm feeling quite confident about this one. 

Dogs  22 

Eagles  12

I really hope you're right but I cant see where 6 tries will  come from .

[doggystyle]

I agree with Dog Faced, not sure we have it in us to reach the dizzy heights of 36 points scored FOR us.

[RogerT]

Have faith folks, it's coming together, we scored 4 tries last time out.

I think we should be a little more optimistic at home. My scoreline represents the current weather/pitch conditions rather than our scoring prowess.

[phildog]

20-16 to us.

[RogerT]

Sorry ginaldo I forgot about the cup, I had already cancelled it out of my mind.

It sounds like it is going to be a free-scoring walk in the park for your boys.

Tubby must be shaking in his boots.

There are some very good players amongst that lot. Let us hope that they are a bit longer yet finding their form.

It's about time we all started being more optimistic than pessimistic, and I'm not just talking about RL

The thing is PM, an optimist like you is often disappointed whereas a pessimist like me is often pleasantly surprised!

and theres also a couple a players who might just have a blinder come sunday and prove  some folks were wrong. i reckon it will be a good game and show just were we are at.

[Graham Greaves]

Important game this one. Mark Aston and his team have come out on top so many times over the last few years. But i feel we can win this one but only if we show the same resiliance and fight which has been on show for us in recent games. Luckily we have so far avoided injuries in key positions where we have no cover and our starting team are playing well. I go for a bulldog win by 22 - 16. Am hopeing for better weather and a decent turnout from our missing, and  reguler supporters. Sheffield are bringing a full 4 seater taxi load i hear. Patch retiring has left a big hole for Aston to fill.  

[Keep The Faith]

26-14 to the dogs
