00:00There might be a Vegas hangover in more ways than one for Wigan and Warrington. Warrington
00:16obviously they came up against a big game. Wigan side just turned up to the big stage
00:23and they performed out of the Wigan and the key players as well, Bevan French, Jai Field,
00:27Julian Assembly, he's in that category now. They just turned up on that big stage so Warrington
00:34coming back, they're at home, they play against Daryl Powell's Wakefield. Daryl Powell going
00:39back there for the first time, there's that storyline but Powell missed his, he sent Michael
00:45Shenton to do his pre-match presser which is probably smart, takes the attention off
00:49him going back there. It leaves Wakefield just to go there and do their job. I think
00:55it's a decent time for Wakefield to be going to play Warrington for the reasons I've mentioned
00:58so far. Wakefield were off it against St Helens last week, they made far too many errors
01:05if they go and reproduce that performance at Warrington. They've shown enough to suggest
01:11they can turn up and improve on that. If they perform how they did in Round 1 for instance
01:16against Leeds they'll have a really good chance against Warrington I believe. Warrington will
01:21be leggy, they've got the jet lag to contend with and they've obviously played Wigan.
01:28They've got a real pace and in the end the scoreline probably didn't reflect how dominant
01:36Wigan were for most of that game. I give Wakefield a good chance there as long as they do respect
01:43the ball and perform better than they did last week.
