FRIDAY 20th SEPTEMBER
Warrington Wolves v London Broncos KO 20:00

[Harry Stottle]

Wire may as well rest some players for this fixture, they are going nowhere in League position, can't be caught and doubt Leeds will beat HKR with 16 points.

Now that would not be right if jeopardy was at stake.

Would be nice if Wire rested a few and London snagged an upset.

Realistically, they are hoping to equal Hull's possible margin of defeat.

Leeds need only win by one point, Warrington need to cover the other 16 points, but I agree Leeds win is unlikely HKR are playing too well.

We aren't resting anyone, only squad change for Warrington is Ratchford replacing Tai who has a minor knock.

[Wilderspoolmemories]

Wire by 20, but I can't see Leeds beating Rovers, so I'll predict a 3rd place finish for us and a home tie with Leigh the following week which will be a great game.

[Fly-By-TheWire]

3rd is better for Warrington I feel.   No week off and play the 'semi' away at KR, which will suit the Burgess 'underdog' battle mentality.   Just hope we don't slip up at home yet again.

That would be my fear, given our past history!

If Leigh beat Saints then Leigh will be 5th on 31 points, losing will leave Saints on 30 points with a far greater points difference than both Leeds and Catalan who if either win will still only be 30 points the same as Saints, that would have Wire at home to Saints.

Or saints win, Catalan win and Warrington play Catalan at home

Should have said Yes, but added I will be finished with, I'm not bothered if Leigh lose.

Yes.

Saints win, catalans lose and we'll play leigh at home. Think that's the only way it's possible.

[Leeds Wire]

I think this Wire team is capable of winning any one-off game, however the fixtures work out. 

WIth Dufty, Vaughan and Fitzgibbon back, we can beat anyone.

Shame we don't have players like Wrench going into the play offs but all teams have their injuries.

"Now the Wire!" as my parents and grandparents used to shout. 

 

[RayCee]

If London lose and not by a large margin, they still avoid the wooden spoon. 34 points or less will do it.

Won’t be seeing Fitzgibbon back again this year unfortunately. Rumour mill has it we won’t see him next season either - but I’m hoping that’s overly dramatic.

[ELBOWSEYE]

Dufty starts, Lindop in centres and Philbin is replaced by Sam Wood on the bench, strong side with Vaughan, Tai and Phil in the only players who when available would play in the playoffs.

Good to see how awful the video is already.

Will I even get to see my team's last performance in SL? 

So amateur

Yup. Just jumping pictures

Audio is great though, and that's what I really watch these games for. The commentators.

[Dave T]

Nice one Sky. At least you don't charge us a fortune for this service.

Think I should video call my dad and get him to stream it for me from the ground. Would get a better picture of what's going on.

And now it's gone to "coverage will start soon" at least I could hear what was going on before
