Our first Cumbrian Derby of the season,a tough trip up to the Recreation ground.

I think it may be a tight game hopefully we will take a decent following up and cheer the lads to a win.

Be a tough game this. Haven will be well up for it. Should give us a clear idea of how we are gonna go this season  though

Maybe R and they will  need to be well up for it watched the leigh highlights and it looked like they couldn't tackle a hot dinner

I sincerely hope you're right  ... at least for the 2 games they play us 😊

Leigh moved the ball quickly  and Whitehaven couldn't cover the plays, and as POR says the tackling was woeful.

Just like last week this game is very important, it’s potentially a relegation 4 pointer. If we beat Whitehaven and then Newcastle at home it would put us on 6 points.

The teams that got relegated last year only had 5 points so I think that puts us in a very good position for the season. Whitehaven will be a tough game as they need the win just as much as us, but I think we will win.

I shall go for Whitehaven 12-26 Barrow and Miloudi first try scorer.

Massive game this, win and we go into Newcastle with huge confidence whilst if we lose we are probably still wondering where we are as a team. 

Scoreline last week didn't look great for Haven but Leigh have invested heavily so hard to tell if Leigh were just fitter, faster and stronger or Whitehaven were poor based off highlights. 

Without sounding too confident we looked really good last week. Hopefully Sammut and S Toal come back soon as they'll make us significantly stronger.

That's it pal just fitter, faster and stronger we actually defended pretty well but the back too one re starts killed us there must've been about 20 in the game. 

Should be a close game on Sunday I'll go 24 - 18 Haven.

I only saw the highlights to be honest but they looked like they broke through far to easily!

I’d say for most of the game we wer tackling bud there’s a lot of teams that will go to Leigh and concede a lot more than 50 points marra imagine tackling a full time side for 80 mins and at times being down to 10 men takes some doing that

It certainly would take a lot of doing. It should be more evenly matched on Sunday and I am looking forward to it! Let's hope it's a good game!

Tougher game than a few here are expecting, Most teams will look inferior against clubs like Leigh & Fev, Especially when players are sat in sin bin.

Hope we play smart & don’t get dragged into any derby day dust ups & play the percentages & triumph, As that will be an fantastic start to the season.

Technical issues means no coverage which is frustrating!

Twitter image showed horrendous rain and win and it looked like we we’re running into it. Next image sun shining clear sky. Good old Cumbrian weather. Stack got yellow on hf time so man down first 10 of second half.
