🏉 ABOUT THE RUGBY LEAGUE OUTSIDERS PODCAST
Welcome to Rugby League Outsiders, where two passionate fans and former players, Karl Walker and Craig Williams, bring their love for the game to you from the Midlands. After relocating to the area, they were disappointed that rugby league wasn't as prevalent as in their former homes.

However, instead of accepting defeat, Karl and Craig saw this as an opportunity to promote the sport and make it more accessible for others in the Midlands. They started the Rugby League Outsiders podcast to shed light on the hidden gems of rugby league in the region and to give a voice to those who may have been overlooked. Now they continue to promote the game at all levels and all areas with a particular focus on clubs outside the heartlands.

Tune in weekly as Karl and Craig share their insights and experiences, interview players and coaches, and delve into rugby league. From local clubs to the latest news, they've got you covered.

As far as Wakey, Jowitt & Stourton have been playing really well but Josh Rourke is an excellent back up for Jowitt and it'll be good to see him get a run out. Plus Cam Scott, Ky Rodwell, Griffin and Pitt's are back this week, so on paper a potentially stronger side than the last.

Not looking forward to saints away Friday lads. Last year our defence kept the game's close, so we where never out of the game and always had a chance to win. Not this season. Very strange

[jamesconlon]

Warrington needed the Widnes
Once they realized there was no video ref + dirty tactics, they rose to the Challenge.

No defeat, against Saints for us last season (at there place).

Should be a good atmosphere.

[Alfie-ksuq]

Love these vids, come on the robins⚪️🔴⚪️🔴

[kevinworrall]

Is Kevin Penny the wire flyer? Maybe 🤔

[SRlikethetoothpaste]

Sneaky feeling Leeds may surprise a few people at Saturday teatime and get the win.
They'll be up for it at home and word has it a number of Wigan players have been displaying flu-like symptoms following exposure to the aggressive air conditioning systems of Las Vegas.
That could also be contributing to Warrington's current plight.

[KyleGrierson]

Giants
Hull FC
Saints
Catalan
Wigan
Leigh maybe 🤷‍♂️

[philipburton]

You both always say waky will loose but they have just named a very strong team so 7 hope you are both wrong

[ashhale]

Keep backing against Wakey. 3 times in a row you've gone against this and we've won the other two

[stephenbrown]

You do talk some trash, how can you say that Leigh will win when Rovers are unbeaten this season even though they have not played to their full potential. It is Rovers all the way on Sunday.

[Samords]

Lads please don’t be predicting FC to win games. You’ll give us hiccups, change your minds to wakey please 🤣👍🏽
