| Do the last two results mean we're going forward at an alarming rate?

nothing gets won in early season, weve lost games we should have won and won games we should have lost, last season we marched through the league only to fail at the end of the season (Challenge Cup aside), we're doing OK in my view, we've got the players, we just need some consistency, get Houghton back and some longer stints from Ellis, so long as we're top 8 then its all good. Worried we'll get Saints away in the draw tonight mind!

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason.

| We were too lucky with injuries last season, no one got forced to be rotated and we obviously stuck with the winning formula. Our rotten luck with injuries to forwards recently might actually be a blessing in disguise come the business end.

Indeed, a real rough house prop would be a welcome addition, a wrecking ball off the bench, but there aren't many available

| We seem to have prioritised the Cup in recent years but now the monkey is off our back perhaps priorities might change.
If we were to get a tough away draw and come up short it wouldn't be the end of the world for me.
All guns blazing for a Grand Final is the new Golden Fleece.

We're due back at Old Trafford! Just hope we do better this time if we make it!

Not easy though is it.
Only half a dozen teams ever got there including us.
Would be pretty special to get there and win it mind.

Indeed, but as you say, a tough journey to even get there. FC v Cas would be amazing!

We will be doing this evening from approximately 8-47pm, but we're well rounded, we can handle it.

Its also quite clear that we are far too reliant on Houghton & Ellis, when even one of these isn't on the field we play poorly never mind when both are absent as was the case for most of the game today.

Particularly pleasing to put this one to bed. Of course we miss them when they don't play, but a two man team we ain't.
