Yes, I was thinking exactly this yesterday. On form, we are a top 4 side. We should believe we can match and beat other sides around us (if we were in 4th!)

I'm in the same boat. Our best prop at the moment (by quite some way) is Dan Murray. Who could be recalled by Salford at any time. Kevin Larroyer too is playing very well, albeit overshadowed yesterday by our young superstar. Then you have Lilley who I think isn't getting the credit he deserves. His kicking game is head and shoulders above any of our other half options and whilst we don't often look like scoring on the last, we usually end up with some good territory.

Some of our "own" players are playing well at the moment. But take Murray, Larroyer & Lilley out of the side and it could easily slip down the hill a bit.

If we then lose Scott Moore to Her Majesty's Select XIII, then we could be tumbling even further.

It's perhaps in our interests that Salford & Cas continue to play well and continue to not pick up too many injuries. That way they may not need the players they've sent our way.

Walking up to the ground yesterday, I had a good feeling we'd see a good performance and it was proven right, well done boys (right description for most). Must admit when I saw the line up with the right edge defense of Lilley, Ryan and Campbell, I was concerned that Yere and Lo would cause lots of problems, but it was our left side that looked hesitant with Caro looking exposed. Anyone know what was wrong with Lee Smith?

What was the applause on 10 minutes for?

There was a story on Facebook about some long standing fan who'd passed away. According to the story there was a problem fitting in a mention of him in the form of an announcement. Supporters took it on themselves to give a round of applause regardless.

I was told the "problem fitting in a mention" was that the club wanted a fee to do so. I don't know how much truth there is in it, so I took it with a small pinch of salt, but if it was true, that's pretty disappointing.
