My very own father claims that, due to our set of admittedly very (very) strong backs, we will go through the 2014 Super League season without losing a game, a la the 2003-2004 Arsenal team or 1888-1889 Preston North End team. Does anybody else agree with me that this is very (very) unlikely or are there some BIG optimists out there?

not a chance, we are a quick halfback and a couple of forwards short of being really really good though

No chance. It's not football and there will be days when we just don't fire and the opposition do!

There's gonna be some losses im afraid as Kirke is due back soon

FFS...

As is my argument. Almost wouldn't be too disappointed if this were to happen as I would bag a tenner! Will probably be to someone like London though...

I wondered how long it would be until this crap surfaced.
We will not go undefeated throughout this season.
Neither will any of the other teams - not even Cas!

leeds will lose against widnes now

Not sure who the biggest idiot is a) your dad for thinking Leeds will go unbeaten
or b) you for posting it

The only team who has a chance of going the full season is London......and that's loses not wins.

Is it just me or does no-one other than Rugby League commentators (and, it seems, fans) use "a la" in everyday English?

I'm not sure I'd class someone provoking debate on a message board as an idiot personally.

Leeds going unbeaten all season is about as realistic a proposition as a svelte Ryan Hall.

That would see us being Challenge Cup winners.

What's your old man been smoking?

Err, thanks?
