Sam Tomkins saying Sam Powell isn't a dirty player. Aside from the history of dirty grubby acts throughout his career. Hip drops, chicken wing tackles. That's literally his game.

Hope Niu is ok.     Oh no wait.

Leigh massive favourites for this, they are playing well while Warrington stumble along. Expect young Webster to play fb, jake thewlis to play wing.Smith and Hopoate centres. Only two of the 7 backs would have started the season.

Difficult to be confident as a Leigh fan. We've won a few recently, but not beaten anyone in the top 6 since round 1 when Leeds were without Connor, Oledski, Palasia, Handley and Sivo. And played poorly against KR who had their own injury problems the other week.

We have a full team more or less.

Warrington have 6 of their first choice 13 out.

 

We have to be clear favourites. 

No excuses

Warrington on Sky bet get 8 start.

 

That's definitely a maggot in the water to tempt a good shilling or two  on Leigh.

The injuries are catching up with Wire a bit and Leigh will be more desperate for the win. 

Leigh by 12.

11 players missing injured: CTW, Thewlis, King, Lindop, Gardner, Williams, Yates, Sipley, Philbin, Crowther, Stone. But its not a bad 17 and I'm hoping we can give Leigh a good game - I'd be surprised if we can pull off the win though against a strong looking Leigh squad.

Sneyd not likely to play?

I think he's fit now (foot injury keeping him out previously) and Burgess has hinted he could come back in soon, though he has also said a few weeks back Irwin and Hayes were his starting half backs to the end of the season.

 

50/50 I'd say, Sneyd's experience in a young team would probably do us some good, but Burgess tends to focus on youth....

Actually who is missing from the backline, only probably the FB, and then again Thewlis is being moved to play in his squad position, the centres have been together a while and the half-backs are the coaches preferred pairing at this point in time.

CTW, Thewlis, King, Williams, its jake thewlis who is playing not Josh. Only Sneyd is a deliberate choice, the fb is third choice. The centre is not even third choice, he's only playing centre because King, London and Gardner are out injured. Only Hopoate and Ashton are backs who would have been classed as first choice,  others are because of injuries  through the season. Also worth mentioning there are at least two 18yr olds playing.

Almost a full reversal of when Warrington stuffed us 42-6 at the start of the season.

 

However, I don't thing the score line will be reversed but on Paper, Leigh should win by 4 scores.

 

It wont be though as Warrington have some fantastic kids who will play with Freedom and no doubt give Leigh a game.

 

Leigh by 10.

Can't argue with your logic, leigh should be too strong, but i expect a good effort from the wire.

Bit off-putting and inappropriate to see the focus on Burnham. Calling him ''royalty'' and the like is just a bit off. Focus on the game.

Who was Burnham just fisting?

I thought he was paying homage to the Leigh player who scored ...

And that is why Armstrong gets full back over Hodgson or O’Brien
