| They are not kind opening fixtures in my opinion, they are the type of fixtures that we have typically gone in to with a complacent "yeh, we'll win this one, no problem" attitude, only to come out the other side with our tail between our legs and wondering where the next win will actually come from.
Wigan, Cats, Saints, Hull would have been better i reckon, more chance of us getting up for the game and performing at a higher level, and hopefully breeding a consistent perfomance, and more importantly, match day attitude.
Powell needs to get them thinking that every game is a cup final and be targetting to smash every team from minute one - anything less and i reckon we're in for another miserable season.

It's not to do with positive or negative. Just objective markers to see if anything has changed.
Pressure? I hope he is feeling under pressure.

| It’s a pressure environment, this whole project is to make the team better than the had been before. A mediocre campaign, limping out of the playoffs early won’t be saved by a cup run, they are the terms of engagement.
14 new players (and counting, 15 with Drinkwater) granted back to 12 as Holmes and Billy Magoulias have gone. It’s a purpose built squad, if there isn’t any expectation now then when will there be.
No excuses, only Williams is disrupted by the World Cup so perfect pre-season to prepare for hitting the ground running.

Exactly, on paper it's the 4th/5th/6th best coaching job in northern hemisphere rugby league. With the rewards, comes the expectation and pressure. No one forced him to apply for the job.

I don't mind that. It means we have to peak at the end of the season when we're supposed to. It's likely that if we make the 6 it's going to be 5th/6th and playoff trips away from home, a la Leeds 2022. Build some resilience.
