Magic Weekend is almost upon us!

The home of Manchester City FC hosts a full round of Super League fixtures this weekend when tickets for the extraordinary action represent some of the best value in British sport.

Tickets cost from just £30 per day (£15 concessions) and £45 for the whole weekend (£22.50), which is a little more than £6 per match!

Tickets can still be purchased in advance by calling the RFL Ticket Office on 0844 856 1113 or visiting www.rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk

Tickets can also be purchased from the Manchester City Ticket Office in the North Stand at the Etihad Stadium from 9.00am on Saturday and noon on Sunday. Fans can upgrade a day ticket to a weekend ticket at the Ticket Office for £15 (£7.50 concessions).

Now in its seventh year, Super League’s seven-match extravaganza promises to be better than ever before in 2013 with a bumper schedule of entertainment for the whole family on the two days, both inside and outside the stadium.

Off the field, the activities are just as captivating with a wide range of attractions which are guaranteed to keep every member of the family busy and entertained across both days.

Super League’s official partners are offering an exciting range of fan activities both in the Fanzone outside the stadium and during the stadium entertainment programme.

In the stadium there will be a house band – Conquer Rio – who will entertain the crowd between matches.  Before every game there will be the opportunity for fans to watch the game from the Heinz Soup-er seat – where they will watch the game from the comfort of a sofa and enjoy Heinz Big products and champagne. To be selected for this great opportunity fans will have to demonstrate their skill playing the bongos on the Heinz bongo cam.

The Fanzone will open from Saturday at 10.00am until 6.15pm and from Sunday at noon until 7.00pm.

The Rugby League World Cup trophy will be in attendance, in what is a huge year for the sport, with the 14-nation taking place in England and Wales this autumn, and fans will have the opportunity to have their picture taken with the sport’s most coveted piece of silverware.

Other activities will include:

•       Foxy Bingo will have their special double decker bus, which will be fitted out with its own nail station for fans, as well as fun competitions to take part in;

•       Heinz will be running the Big Soup passing challenge;

•       Irn Bru will have a sumo wrestling and tackle game for fans to test themselves on;

•       Brut are offering fans the chance to test out their skills like the Super League extraordinary players with a James Roby pull ups test, a Tom Briscoe passing speed challenge and the Sam Tomkins reactions and agility test;

•       There will be a green screen photo opportunity where you can be captured lifting the Super League Trophy at The Grand Final;

•       The RAF will be bringing their climbing wall along for people to test their head for heights.

Fans will again be able to send interactive messages of support to their team, fellow fans and to celebrate special events like birthdays. These messages will be displayed on digital boards in and around the stadium. Messages can be sent on the day but fans will also be able to prepare their messages in advance and have them pre-loaded onto the system via the RFL’s Facebook and Twitter using  #magicweekend.

Many supporters will find access to The Magic Weekend even easier this year with the new Metrolink service to the stadium direct from central Manchester.

The new Etihad Campus link opened in February and goes from Bury via Piccadilly Station to the Etihad and on to Droylsden. Fans wishing to plan their journey in advance can see all the details as metrolink.co.uk/droylsden.

Richard Agar previews the Magic Weekend.

Wakefield entertain the Tigers after the disappointing 44-18 defeat away at Hull KR last weekend and will be doing their upmost to put that right in Manchester at the Etihad Stadium.

The Wildcats will entertain a bumper crowd on Saturday in the second game of the weekend sandwiched between Catalan V London and the Hull derby.

Speaking at the Magic Weekend launch the Trinity boss said the attitude of the squad has been fantastic this week.

“They have reacted positively,” claimed Agar.

“In defeats like the one we experienced at the weekend there are questions that need answering. We had a fairly long and thorough review on Monday and we know we fell well below the standards that have made us a competitive side and that’s disappointing.

“What rugby league gives you is an opportunity on a short turnaround to put it right and there’s no better way for us to put it right than to get one over Castleford in what’s going to be a tremendous occasion on a big stage at the Magic Weekend.”

The consecutive defeats in Hull has hindered a run of good form though after Wakefield won their three games previous to that, including the impressive victory over the Dragons. Agar says they need get back to winning ways and confirmed he will make changes to the 17 that take to the field against Castleford.

“We feel our form over the last month has been ok and we were quite happy with it. We were up at half-time at the weekend and then we didn’t see that second half coming, we felt we could go on and win the game and win it well. To experience that is part of the deal, as much as nobody likes it you have to take it on the chin, dust yourself down and set about putting that right.

“There will be changes to the team this weekend, that’s a given. We were mightily disappointed with some efforts that we got at the weekend so we’ve got some scope and some opportunity to make some changes and we’re going to do that.

“The 80 minutes for us this week provides an opportunity to banish all that went on last week and keep ourselves very much in touch with the eight.”

Taulima Tautai looks set to make his first appearance in the red, white and blue on Saturday and although he hasn’t been playing first grade in the NRL Agar says he is up to speed.

“Taulima has been playing over there and he even played last weekend with his fitness and form good so all things being equal and he’s over his jetlag and he gets through training, then he’s going to be in contention to play and I’d say he will make his debut against Castleford at the weekend.”

The new prop forward will be aiming to continue the recent record against the Tigers which has seen three wins in the last 12 months but Agar says it will be a far greater challenge than the derby on Good Friday.

“We had a disappointing start in my first derby (in 2012) but our form against them has been pretty good since then. We had a good win against them at Easter but I think they’re a radically different proposition at the moment, they’ve had a change of coach and in Castleford’s case it’s resulted in an up spurt in form.

“They’re still at the point where they‘re wanting to impress Daryl Powell and he’s still stamping his own mark, philosophies, structures and disciplines on that group of players. Five or six weeks ago these players were under  a lot of pressure and all of a sudden the pressure has been lifted with a change of coach and the slate is almost clean for them and with that they’ve found confidence.

“A derby game is always a terrific way to answer some questions and that goes for us as well.”

A new organisation has been set up to celebrate and support the women who work in, play, watch and support the sport of rugby league.

Her Rugby League Association was created by Angela Powers, a Sky Sports reporter who has been involved in covering the game for 15 years.

“I have always been quietly proud of the fact that rugby league appeals to and attracts so many women, even though it is played predominantly by men and is characterised by aggressive contact,” she said.

“Despite its combative nature, it has grown to be considered THE sport for all the family, and that is reflected in the make up of the crowd and the warm and friendly atmosphere most people experience at live games.”

Her Rugby League Associationʼs main objective is to promote the sport to new audiences by highlighting the part that women play in the game. By celebrating the positive aspects of the sport – and dispelling some outdated and inaccurate myths about who actually watches and plays it – Her RLA believes that those who have never played or watched a game might be tempted to ʻgive it a goʼ.

“Rugby league, like many other sports, has some very real challenges right now. The reduction in some of its Sport England funding and the increasing difficulty in attracting new sponsors in a tough financial climate are making it harder to market and expand the sport.

“Couple that with the impending structural changes to Super League and the licensing system, and you can see why some may question its future direction. But people have been incorrectly predicting rugby leagueʼs demise since its birth in 1895 – and we believe that enhancing the positive can only do it good in the longer term. Thatʼs why we are here. To make a difference.”

In its first year, Her RLA plans a number of new, exciting strategies to promote and support the sport and the women involved in it. They include:

• Organising events specifically targeted at a female audience but with the sport of rugby league at their heart;

• Creating a communications network so that women in the game can share ideas, opinions and expertise, via a forum for members on its website;

• Setting up networking and informal mentoring events and training for members, with a view to enhancing their skills within rugby league and to the benefit of the wider community;

• Commissioning research to discover the true picture of female participation in the sport, from playing to watching to volunteering to supporting, and everything in between, to enable better marketing to new and existing, key audiences;

• Highlighting the positive stories and experiences of women in the game, through the use of social and traditional media, and an annual Awards Celebration Evening.

“Her Rugby League Association isnʼt about giving women in the game ʻa voiceʼ…women already have one, and their opinions have always counted. This is about bringing them together, sharing ideas, helping each other and showing the world what a great, inclusive, and exciting sport it is. Spread the love!”

Prop Taulima Tautai is set to debut on Saturday.

The giant prop should be joined by Ali Lauitiiti who missed the trip to Hull KR last week. Matty Wildie is also in the 19-man squad as Jon Molloy and Vince Mellars miss out. Tautai could join fellow front-rower Kyle Amor in the pack who will celebrate his 100^th career appearance if selected.

Wakefield will be looking to get back to winning ways after the defeats in Hull in the last two weeks but their form against Castleford has been much better of late. The Wildcats have won the last three games against the Tigers which included a 32-26 success at the Etihad Stadium in 2012.

Trinity head coach Richard Agar admits he could ring the changes on Saturday.

“We expect to get Ali back this week, Taulima has a chance of playing while Reece Lyne missed out last week so he’s back in contention.

“It’s an understatement to say we were disappointed last week so a lot of these players have a strong chance of playing this weekend.”

1. Richard MATHERS

2. Peter FOX

3. Dean COLLIS

4. Lee SMITH

England stars including captain Kevin Sinfield will be out to impress at Magic Weekend.

The colourful event is back at the home of Manchester City for a second consecutive year after more than 60,000 fans enjoyed sunshine and scintillating Rugby League 12 months ago.

But for Huddersfield Giants and England prop Eorl Crabtree it’s another opportunity to impress England head coach Steve McNamara, and cement his place in the Elite Training Squad ahead of Rugby League World Cup 2013.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to market yourself for a place in the England team,” said Crabtree, whose side face Bradford on Sunday at 5.15pm.

“Everybody is focused on performing well for their clubs, but with it being World Cup year, the players are also trying to cement their spot.

“Those guys with that focus are the ones who’ll get picked, as even the ones currently in the squad know that they have to remain consistent to keep their place.

“Everybody is vying for selection, and the Magic Weekend is a great window for all of the players to show what they can do.”

Crabtree spent three days in camp with his England team-mates at the beginning of last week, at the Elite Training Squad’s base in Loughborough.

And the imposing prop says he is already feeling the benefits.

“It’s always good to be in camp and get together with the boys,” said Crabtree.

“To get back on the field with them and go through one or two plays is important, and it’s great to see the other boys in action.

“We have a great facility and superb staff within the England set-up, and the players benefit immensely from this time together, so it’s crucial we get together fairly frequently in World Cup year.”

And while 14 clubs prepare for battle in the blue half of Manchester this weekend, 14 nations will vie for a spot in the Rugby League World Cup 2013 Final, which will take place across the city at Old Trafford on November 30.

Crabtree admits to having one eye on this autumn’s tournament, and in particular the clash between England and Ireland at the John Smith’s Stadium on November 2.

“It’s always good to play on your home patch and I’ll be seeking to utilise the home comforts of a familiar ground if I’m selected to play.

“It’d be a bit strange getting a coach to my own stadium, but I just want to play, and it’d be great to have the Giants fans behind me and the England boys for that game.”

Tickets are now on sale for RLWC2013, with 55% of tickets priced £20 or less. To make sure you will BE THERE buy now at www.rlwc2013.com/tickets or call our 24 Hour Ticket Hotline on 0844 847 2013.

Danny Kirmond says the Wildcats players are committed to righting the wrongs of their below par showing at Hull KR.

By the admission of Richard Agar and the players, Trinity were well below par at MS3 Craven Park and head to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday with one of the biggest matches of each and every season looking to get back on track.

Wakefield meet Castleford (2.15pm) at the home of Manchester City aiming to extend a run of three successive derby day victories over the Tigers and Kirmond says the players are committed to showing what they’re made of against the clubs local rivals.

“It’s a great platform to play on and a great stadium and you get a chance to showcase your skills to a few people who don’t normally watch rugby league so it’s a great opportunity for everyone,” said Kirmond, speaking at the Magic Weekend media day on Tuesday.

“Most of all, it’s a derby game which we always look forward to.  They’re always big games for the club, a bit of local bragging rights on offer so it’s one we’re really looking forward to.

“We were really average to where we want to be (against Hull KR) and that performance was nothing like what we feel we can perform and that’s the most disappointing thing.  It’s not like we put in those performances week-in, week-out.  It’s a one off performance that’s really let everyone down and let ourselves down more than anything which is why we’re really keen to get back to winning ways.

“We’ve had a really honest session this morning (Tuesday).  Everyone knows where we went wrong last weekend and everyone’s fully committed to putting it right.

“The second half was probably the worst we’ve played since Rich took over and since I’ve been at the club so it is hard to take.  Seeing it on footage is the best way and the most honest way.  That’s the best way to get it across to everyone.  We’re really committed to each other and we understand that we didn’t do well enough for each other.”

Local bragging rights have belonged to the fans in red, white and blue ever since the 2012 Magic Weekend where a Tim Smith try sealed the win in an enthralling contest played out in a sweltering Etihad Stadium.

Since then the Wildcats have won fairly comfortably twice on Tigers turf, but Kirmond is expecting anything but a straightforward victory, particularly given that Castleford are now under the guidance of a new head coach in Darryl Powell.

“Castleford are a really dangerous team.  They’ve got a new coach so everybody will be looking to pick their game up so it’s going to be a bit of a different proposition this time when we play them.

“We know they’ve got a lot of dangerous players in Daryl Clark and Rangi Chase, plus lots of attacking players.  We know we’re going to have to be at our best and that’s the most important thing for us, that we look after our performance.”

Last year’s Magic Weekend was of extra significance to Kirmond as he took over the captaincy from Steve Southern and helped guide the Wildcats to not only a victory on that day, but a second half of the season that saw Wakefield force into the play-off places.

Twelve months down the line and ‘Captain Kirmo’ is continuing to thrive in the role and was one of the Wildcats better performers against the Robins.

Reflecting on the first twelve months as the clubs on-field leader, Kirmond is pleased with how things have gone.

“I think it’s gone really well,” he said.

“We had the great run last year and it was great to do it (the captaincy) through an off-season, helping people out and doing things that maybe you don’t do through the season.  You get to see lots of different places and come on promo’s like this, it’s a good experience and something the normal person might not see.

“It’s definitely something I’m enjoying, I’m developing into and I think the boys like me doing it too.  I want the best for the team and that’s what I’ll try to do.  I’ll do my best whenever I am captain and try my best for the team.”

Prop Taulima Tautai has joined the Wildcats following his release from Parramatta Eels.

The prop forward has played over 70 first grade games in the NRL for Parramatta and Cronulla Sharks after making his debut for the Eels in 2008 and he will arrive at the Rapid Solicitors Stadium on Wednesday morning and will be sponsored by HS Security.

The 25-year-old is predominantly a prop but started his career as a back and has plenty of experience playing both on the wing and centre position before converting himself into a barnstorming forward.

The Australian-born player burst onto the scene in 2008 and was awarded the Eels Rookie of the Year before moving to Cronulla for the 2010 campaign where he lined up alongside some of the current Wildcat stars.

The 6ft 3in giant who weighs in at over 17 stone has represented Samoa in the past and will be hoping to force his way into their World Cup squad at the end of the season and he hopes to enjoy a successful time in the northern hemisphere.

“I can’t wait.  It’s a good opportunity for a new start and I’m looking forward to it.  I want to give something back to Wakefield and establish a career for myself in Super League.

“I’m really excited, the game is really fast paced and physical over there so I think it’ll suit my game.  I watched the Wakefield vs. Catalan game on TV recently and there’s some big boys over there.

“I started my career out on the wing but I like to be involved, get my hands on the ball, make tackles and go looking for work so I enjoy playing in the middle.

“I spoke to Timmy (Smith) and he gave Wakefield a massive rap.  He said the team’s really good, it’s a good bunch of boys and he’s really enjoying it.  I spoke with Richard Agar too and I just can’t wait to get over now.”

Wildcats head coach Richard Agar was pleased to boost his options in the pack as the Wildcats strive to mount a challenge on the play-off spots.

“He’s fit and ready to go,” said the head coach.

“It will give us a boost at this stage (of the season) and we haven’t filled the quota spot that Isaac (John) had which has been empty for most of the season. It will certainly give us what we’ve been looking for a while which is increased competition for places among our middle men which is something that will help our squad.

“He’s not played at Parra at all this year and hence he’s looking for a move, we’ve been able to utilise that situation and the timing of it has suited both parties.

“He’s formally an outside back but has made the transition into the forwards over the last two or three seasons.

“He’ll certainly add to the strength and depth of our forward back, he’s got good footwork and a real ability to get you on the front foot and get you a quick play of the ball.

“He has a little bit of versatility that he can play front-row and back-row and certainly in the short term we see him as an addition to our front-row.”
