Daunting Trip to the Select Security Stadium : Tue Jul 29, 2014 11:47 am  

Tough one this week. On paper we look a stronger side than them, but the game's not played on paper, it's played on...... oh bugger that doesn't work this week.

At least there's no Kevin Brown

RELIEVED Head Coach Denis Betts has revealed that star halfback Kevin Brown has been given the all-clear to come straight back into contention for this weekend’s vital game against Hull KR. Brown came off mid-way through the first-half during the Vikings’ loss to St Helens at Langtree Park last Friday night, causing the Widnes supporters to collectively hold their breath at the prospect of losing one of their main playmakers. But speaking at Tuesday’s press conference, Betts announced ‘Kevin is alright, he’s got no problems’. http://www.widnesvikings.co.uk/news/article/39920/brown-all-clear-despite-heavy

Where I read it it said he will be fit for the cc semi and could really play against Hull kr but maybe we won't risk him I don't think he will play along with a couple of others I think the semi is more important than making the eight

Im in the Frankie positive team for this fingers crossed they rest a few

Re: Daunting Trip to the Select Security Stadium : Tue Jul 29, 2014 4:19 pm  

I am hoping he doesn't play, he is massive for them hopefully if Chester sorts the half back position out selection wise we can grab the 2 points!

You'll win this. brown won't play and no player with any slight know will be risked and the rest of the team will have their minds on the semi. Give them a bit of stick early on and they'll lose interest

Looking forward to the thread title Easy trip to the KC!

Really don't like the ipitch and don't think it should be allowed.

Widnes are really smart on it, their kickers know how to exploit it (and why shouldn't they) and I think we'll face an afternoon of having to run it out of our twenty at best or multiple drop outs.

Biggest game of the season for us, and it's looked like that for months, I'll travel with more hope than confidence.

Really do not like The Giraffe.

Quite right, as ever, Sandra.

Definite unfair advantage for the home team on that 'pitch'.
