and yet choose not to mention a game we are likely (barring a disaster) to win as loss-win-loss doesnt sound as dramatic as loss-loss. And I certainly wouldnt rule a win against hull kr out either TBF.

never said we would beat wire. but why choose to ignore the fax game? Agree hull kr away is a tough ask but could see us getting something there if we get our heads down.

TBH looking at fixtures pre-season so far theyve gone pretty much how I thought with exception of salford game. I expect us to lose to Wire home and away and lose to both hulls away but beat them both at home. We're certainly not in a brilliant position if we lose both wire and kr away but only a couple of points below where I thought we'd be. If we pick up points against the smaller (no disrespect intended) teams and get home wins against the two hulls and salford and maybe an upset against one of bigger teams then I reckon we'll end up about 8th. A small improvement on last year but still an improvement and something we can build on next year. IMO those predicting anything above 6th this year were being over-optimistic/ unrealistic.

I can't understand this logic of expecting to lose to a team away but then beat them at home. The notion of home and away makes very little difference to the players.

not impression players keep giving us in press interviews. And how many times have we seen a vocal home crowd sway a ref (admittedly not best argument to use for us as we're way too quiet, but sts and hull kr use it to good effect at home in particular).

It has no effect on the players if they play home and away its a question i've asked players before Big Joe said when on the pitch you dont even know the crowd is their.

Have to agree to disagree on this one as I've seen teams step up a gear plenty of times over years when crowd gets behind them. maybe we don't benefit as much from it as other teams because our crowd is so quiet in general.
