I can see the advantages of 3 games vs SL opposition, players know the required standard before we hit the ground running at Leigh.
You're thinking Cas & Leeds Mat? Both relatively local. High standard. I could go with that.
Those 3 teams are also unlikely to be in the middle 8 at the end of the year as well.
And we're opening up Odsal for at least 1 game.
I don't really see any point playing our usual pre-season game vs Dewsbury for example.
