Brown is back for them which is a great boost for Widnes.
As with Hull KR we'll have to be on our game but they are similar to us in a lot of ways and it will be close.
They need the win as much as we do.

On paper it should be your easiest game so far but that plastic pitch is a great leveller. Don't know if its as bad as it appears on tv but it looks like a threadbare carpet.

Disagree with it being a leveller, as it is the same for both teams. It is an excuse when teams lose.

No it's not the same they play and train on this surface no other clubs do.

Disagree it is a fast pitch and top sides like Leeds have won well at Widnes. Widnes have also won on grass, because won away games too. So bullshit excuse and wake yourself up.

Oh every team we play are training on grass, and it is a leveller for our away games.

In my opinion it is an advantage to Widnes having their own pitch. Ball bounces differently on it so they can take advantage of kicking it. Say if we used a different ball than other SL clubs would it be an advantage? Yes it would teams woulden't be used it to as well as we would have adapted too. Don't know why we're complaining we have a 100% record home and away so far against Widnes since they came up. Hopefully it continues with a solid performance on Sunday which I am excited but nervous for.

I'm always excited but nervous no matter who we play tbh, lets hope we do continue our great record against widnes and also the form we've shown this season.

Don't want to look too far ahead, never too good but if we can win 2 out of the next 3 games, which is defo doable, we'd be certainly on our way and it would be great to be looking up instead of down the division. Fingers crossed.

The recent games between the two have been fairly nip and took, so far Trinity's luck has held out meaning they have a decent record against Widnes. However it could've easily been Widnes with the 6-0 form.

I was confident with the first two matches, this one is too tight to call.

Re: .. Back to SL - Widnes away : Tue Feb 24, 2015 10:57 pm  

It will be a close one. I think we'll put up a good show but I'm not confident. Should be a good game though, which is why we pay the money.

Yes it has been close the last 6 games, just 2 games with a 10+ point win for us, just a try or so in it for the other 4.
