Quote: Mrs Barista "5 from 6 at this stage and people still choosing to invest all this effort in negativity. I'm OK with where we are tbh. Think we still have the best defence in the comp which is good considering we've only played 1 match vs a team outside the top 8 of last season and the attack looks better with Kelly causing mayhem and Fonua and lately Griffin kicking on. All teams have improvement in them at this point and no one bar Cas are really firing, nor would you expect them to be. I'd rather have 10 points from 12 at this stage, meaning 5 wins from the next 17 games to reach last year's safety target, than be in Warrington or Saints position.'"
It's been a very satisfactory start to the season. Five from six is our best start since 2009 (although we then went on to win only another five all year). If we win next week it'll be our best ever start to a Super League season.
Game for game we are level with last season with the defeat at home to Catalans and the away win at Huddersfield reversed. We've just won what on paper was our hardest fixture before the split.
