The bookies are giving Wakey a 30 odd point start. Do we think it will be that easy? (Hope so, I’ve got the house on Bevan being top scorer this year😀)

Wakey have been absolutely woeful this season. They can't get points on the board and have leaked points in every game. I absolutely hate to say this before a game as I'd hate to think it would come back to bite me, but we should really be putting a score on this lot even with resting a few players

I'd like to see some of the younger lads get minutes under their belt - Hill, Nsemba, Forber and Eckersley. I'd also want to see Mago put some good minutes in too. I'd look at the possibility of resting Farrell too

I reckon something like 48-6. Sticking my neck out a bit by saying they will score a try !.
I have supported Wigan RL since the late 80s. First game was a cup tie v Barrow. Also a fan of football and Speedway. Have a varied taste in music.

If we play all the fringe/younger players, that sort of score would be a good result. If we play what we would say is as close to full strength as possible, that scoreline wouldn't be particularly impressive.

I reckon it will be Wakeys first win, as usual we won't take it seriously, will rest certain players and play youngsters in their place and it will come back and bite us in the aris, we should go in full strength with the expectation of putting a cricket score on them, I really hope it doesn't go tits up

Hi all,

Looking to take my 7 year old daughter to her first home game this weekend. Trying to book tickets online but can't work out how to add a ticket for an under 8 year old, it only gives the option of 8-17 years for kids. Does anyone know how?

Thanks

HG
