I think the backs are well matched tbh. People probably see how young yours are and think that they still have a lot to prove, and tbh they do. But then so do ours.
I think we have the better wingers, you just about have the better centres and Lomax would have to edge the full back battle based on his extra experience, but Shaul has plenty to offer himself.

I do rate your backs I think turner is very good going forward, I was disappointed he left us, just that I believe our squad are very good in attack as proved against the catalan dragons were there outside backs were out played considering ball possesion,we just need to address our defence which we know they will be working on this week, we have good forwards to mTch your own, which I see ours as more experienced, but I always back our lads in any game that's why I said FC to win, but I've tipped saints to win the league, as you weren't far away last season just needed that 7 shirt filling which is done now. Good luck. Just not against us. Lol.

If you always back us to win any game, and think we will beat the best team in the league away from home, why didn't you just back Hull to win the league?

It's called faith in our own squad, dosent mean they're going to, & I go off the last game played which we beat a good side, which most had us dead & buried, 48 possible points on our opening night is very good. & if we can sort defence & keep momentum why can't we beat the saints?

I'm not saying we can't, and it's good that you have faith in the squad.
I just thought it was a strange comment that you said Saints were your tip for the title, but that we had better backs, a better pack and would beat them away. Surely in that case Hull are favourites for the title?

| Always like to be positive before an hull game , but that's got me nowhere in the past! And this really does feel like that kind of game, when us hull fans come back to earth with a bump! Think we could be in the wrong end of a big one! Saints by 30+ hope I'm wrong, awfull journey back if I'm right!

Yeamo is better then turner imo, crooks & lineham are better then percival & swift hence first season dream team recognition, Ellis is better then Manu proved this in the toughest league in the world, Carvs,Paea & Feka are better then Walmsley & Amor I do think we could win the league wouldn't go see them everywhere if I didn't I'm not going to start saying this early we are though, I am just going on week to week on who we are playing, at the minute we are not tipped for the title but we are tipped to beat saints. Imo.

| Was Saints really that good against Warrington or was the wire way below par making Saints look better?
I hope we go to Saints and show improvement on the Cats performance. Hope to see better discipline and defence (mainly on Linehams wing) and the attack continues. I'd like to see Horney and Rankin attacking the line more and showing that this team of Radders is not going to trundle up the pitch with five drives and Poor kick. Can we win, only a chance if the discipline is right.

| I think our back five are probably slightly better than Saints, at least in attack, although I do have concerns about our right sided defence after Friday night.
In the halves I think Walsh could be the difference. He will murder us if he plays like he did against Wire.
Saints now have one of the best packs in the league but we have undoubtedly been strengthened by the arrival of Carvell and I was impressed by Feka on Friday night.
Saints must be favourites but with the right attitude and better discipline we should give a good account of ourselves and be competitive.

I will support my team you support yours, how am I gettin carried away? By thinking we can beat saints? Do you think our squad are saying oh we've got saints shall we not bother going? We like your lot can beat anyone on the day.

| Saints will of course be favourites and I'd be happy with a competitive display from Hull, but we saw last year at Warrington that you can travel to a team in form and get a win if your attitude is right.

| really did'nt know what to expect on friday but happy to say was quite impressed.perfect result for me as it could of been a drubbing if we'd kicked goals but the fact we switched off and nearly threw it away shows how small the margins are between winning and losing.proved we can attack which is good for confidence but radders will leave them in no doubt the defence and drop in intensity was no were good enough.be happy with a good performance next 2 games even if no points
