[John Drake]

Discuss this week's Premier Sports televised Betfred Championship game here.

MONDAY 7th FEBRUARY
Featherstone Rovers v Leigh Centurions KO 19:45

[Fevrover]

Could go either way but I feel home advantage will swing  it, but a close score.

[Cw25]

Think everyone will be in shock. Leigh to win easily. Something like, 40-10. 

[Wakefield Ram]

First leg of the Championship Title decider. Home advantage might just count.

[Sir Kevin Sinfield]

Which players from Leeds and Saints do we think are likely to be playing? 

[Lowdesert]

I think this match, played in 4 months time, will be a close run thing but this time around I fancy Fev by 2 or 3 tries.

I'm looking forrad to it. I wished it was on Sunday afternoon but I can't complain that we have telly involved and premier appear to be a breath of fresh air.

I'm not going to make and predictions, mainly cos I'm carp at it. And it's early in the season, still in the "settling down" period. Two good championship sides.... cant wait

[spanishknight]

Fev by 52.

[The Blues Ox]

Fev by about 16. As mentioned above I suspect later in the season this would have been closer but Fev should have too much for Leigh this time around.

[Snowys Backside]

Fev to win. 
 

And for Sir Kev, the amount of dual reg from St Helen’s ?  = Nil

Enjoy Toulouse !

[Cardypaul]

Not sure about this one would like to think Fev but koppy and JSL will be big misses. Either way have my ticket and really looking forward to the game.

Indeed. Beaumont giving it large about how all the pressure's on Fev cos Leigh will be way better later in the season, which may be true, but with Koppy and JSL out, Chisholm and Leilua not played a minute yet this year, and Ryley Jacks still to come in, we won't be anywhere near peak either. Should be a cracker anyway despite his comments ("whilst people are making a lot out of this game on Monday, I honestly don’t get the hype around it.")

I'm expecting leigh to go for it here.... this will be hard but if either team is to achieve promotion it will mean beating the opposition in at least one game. 

Losing Monday won't be the end of the universe.... but.... well, you know the rest

You wimp! Actually I'm with you on this one! Looking forward to it but not going to predict it!

doubt there will be any

[YoungBanno]

Hope Fev win and if we do, it will be very close. 

Fev by 4

[bobbruce]

Leigh looked very good defensively at least against Saints. Think it will be a close game could go either way. 

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Very difficult to forecast - I'll take Fev to shade it as the home side, but with no conviction.

[Simon Hall]

Hope they both lose.

[sweaty craiq]

Fev by 60, anything less would be a disaster so early in the season against a threadbare squad that will get better
