Quote: Steves "If Rhinos had not caved in against Giants the other week (by the way no excuses for this but almost every team if not all are capable of such a result). We would be joint top of the league. We would still have an horrendous injury issue and we would still have a boat load of whiners on this site!
Are we a good side? Certainly not but we are far better than last season when every time we played a bottom two or three side we lost.
What I am trying to say is we are not a top team but we are by no means as bad as some on here would suggest.'"
This 2 points off the top of the league - we're going pretty well etc etc is misleading. Apart from Catalan (who let us off the hook with drop ball on our line time and again) we've lost against every good side we've played and we're out of the cup. We were abysmal against Hull and totally capitulated against Huddersfield, got out of jail against Cas who were awful and very average against London just to name a few. Our stats are dreadful in attack and defence and we're only one win better than last season at this stage.
now if we do something in these next 2 then yes i'd absolutely agree we're going in the right direction and it's not as bad as it seems but at present there's little signs of progress from last year. very little.
