Well here we are. Doubt any of us expecting us to be in a position were a win in Friday will take us top at Easter.


Obviously Rovers will start as favourites, but as Wigan showed on Friday night if you can match Rovers early on, then they are not able to dominate and look more fragile.


Hoping we can turn up with the Warrington first half and Wigan (Cup) second half performances and win the game. We are capable of winning, but can’t have any lapses in concentration otherwise Rovers will punish us.


Expect the crowd will now push on close to capacity with our continued improvement. Should be a great game!

Squad for Friday:


1 Jordan Rapana


3 Zak Hardaker


4 Ed Chamberlain


5 Tom Briscoe


6 Will Pryce


7 Aidan Sezer


8 Herman Ese?ese


9 Amir Bourouh


13 John Asiata


14 Cade Cust


16 Yusuf Aydin


17 Jack Ashworth


20 Davy Litten


22 Lewis Martin


23 Logan Moy


25 Denive Balmforth


27 Matty Laidlaw


30 Callum Kemp


32 Will Kirby


39 Sam Eseh


40 Liam Knight


Team pretty much names itself with Moy, Kemp, Kirby and Laidlaw dropping out.

Rovers name Lewis in the squad,


Looks like its only McIlorum is out and noteworthy

the 2nd rowers are a big miss.  add in cartwright, lane and holmes and its a different game

The 17 Pretty much picks itself without any 2nd rowers being available. Only question is whether we should start with both Ese'ese & Knight. Admittedly we lose a lot of go forward when neither are on but think we gain more overall when both on together than we would splitting them up.
