i think its boring same old teams in top 4 again hopefully we can prove our pundits wrong and finish in the top 4 we have a good team and hopefully if they stay fit we shud be up there dnt think hull fc will finish much higher than last year they lost a few good players and signed one good one shud make a intresting season all round though

why 13?!?!! that doesnt make any sense for a soccer club?!

A pure guess, but it could date back to the time when football clubs could only have one substitute (and that would be a number 12, with 1-11 for the starting line-up). There could also be an element of reluctance of superstitious players for wearing number 13, leaving it available for the fans.

im just looking for a bit of improvment from my team cas,i think we have signed well and if we can continue with the same style of rugby as this year ill be happy and we will take a few more big scalps at home,the majority of the team are starting pre season tuesday with only two players missing and thats something of an added bonus for us while the majority of teams still have players in australia.


does anyone think that the world cup and players returning late will have any bareing on the season ?

Now I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion which is fine but (and I never wanted to get into one of these [i"Ohh how can you say that about my club[/i arguments) I'm just curious as to how you can have Salford below Celtic. We have just won everything on offer in the same competitions as them, thus having the better team, and have since recruited, at this stage, better players than Celtic (I suppose that's down to opinion). At this current time I'm not sure how you can believe that.


I suppose it depends on how we do over the next few games in that I mean if we do well certain players may come back with great confidence and fly into next season. On the other hand if we get battered then confidence will be low and I think if they feel week in mind then body will follow and it could effect certain players performances.

Wow, it's actually impossible to even attempt to predict. Teams like Bradford IMO seem to be going backwards steadily. Wire really have to deliver the goods but probably won't do as well as they SHOULD. Wigan may miss Barrett's influence but still look promising IMO. Hull KR could and should be competitive and aiming for the playoffs this year. Quins are going to miss some influential players this year. Cas seem to have recruited very well but may need time to gel. By the end of the year they'll be a good side and COULD sneak into the playoffs. Wakefield may be galvanised by the passing of Adam Watene and want to play their best for his memory which, along with the Kear factor, could allow them to again punch above their weight, but the depleted pack and continued discipline issues are going to be damaging in the long run (in three years I see us finishing bottom). I predict that Huddersfield will go well, and Hull will be average/unlucky with injuries again/lacking spark in the halves. I can see Salford starting well but fading, and Celtic may struggle. No idea how Catalans will do, either very well or not very well. Very tough year to call. This whole analysis is guesswork.
