I would have thought so.
And don't Quins usually have a warm up game v the Aussie champs, so they also start a week early.

They do but in my opinion if St George are to have a warm up it would make more sense to let them play Crusaders, with Wales having reached the 4 nations.

| Can't remember which site it was on the other day - one of the local papers I think - but it suggested that we'd play a midweek game later in the year to make up whichever game gets shunted on account of the WCC. Really should be as well - makes a mockery of having Magic Weekend as a 'curtain raiser' if we've already played the weekend before.

| I'm not for or against Magic Weekend but in the past the Saints magic derbies have been too close to Easter. With Easter being very late in April this year it isn't too bad.
Who knows this could prove to be an excellent way to launch the league season. It will be interesting to see how many fans travel, I suspect it may not be as bad as feared. Even if you don't go, all seven games on tv will be a treat. And I think they've got the fixtures pretty fair, even by having all "derbies". Perhaps the only side with an easy game on last years form are Leeds but I expect much better from Bradford next year, and anyway opening day rounds are quite often unpredictable.

| I for one am looking forward to it. It will be freezing and therefore I will whine and whine but apart from that should be a cracking weekend.
By the time middle of Feb comes we will all be crying out for some live SL and these matches will give us exactly that.
Before the complaining starts - I agree that the RFL don't market things properly most of the time and don't ask the supporters enough but hey ho it's Wigan Saints and if after close season that isn't enough to get you going I don't know what is!!!!!

| Very unfair on Saints, though. They have to play us while their nearest rivals for 2nd spot all get fairly easy games...
