Quote: Marty Grrrrrrrrrr! "Saints are different gravy to the rest of Super League. Sure they can be beaten but they on their day beat everyone else comfortably.'"
That's why I think we're a much better shout for the Cup than the league - Saints are the one side in the league we can't touch if they're in form.
Having said that, injuries will still have a big influence on this season. Sounds crazy but if we can manage our squad well and have some luck, we might not be far off the league.
As bad as we have been, it's often only 10%ers that make all the difference. Some development of young players (especially Mik, who's been outstanding all year), some astute signings and the fact most of the rest of the league isn't crash hot at all - means we are contenders much quicker than expected.
Saints are a better side than us at present without doubt.
Not taking Salford for granted either, they will have an almighty dig at us. We don't have the same intimidation factor of years gone by and they will fancy their chances.
