I honestly thought you had more about you Jake.

He has the ability to see more than what's right infront of him which is something you seem to lack. I could list at least 4 teams that I'd put money on beating us in a playoff game, are you saying you couldn't do the same?

| Quote Jake the Peg="Jake the Peg"I'm not looking at the current season or any season, just pointing out that a league position at any time other than after the final fixtures isn't absolute evidence of the team's overall standing.
You know I'm right but the bean counter in you won't let you admit it
'"
Before the Catalans game in response to hullbg saying it was a game we should win comfortably you said
Quote Jake the Peg="Jake the Peg"This is Hull we're talking about though, not wire, wigan or saints'"
What was this based on? The top three in the league?

The argument is that at this time in the season we are the 4th best team. Are you intentionally being this stupid?

Are you daft?
The playoffs come in September, we are saying we are the 4th best side right now as we are 4th, come the playoffs we might be 6th, so then we will be saying we are the 6th best side.
Get it!!

If the league table at the pesent moment [iisn't[/i a indication of how strong or weak teams are please could you rank all 14 in order of how strong they are and explain the rationale?

I agree, its why we smashed the abyssmal bottom club by 60 points on Friday night.
I think you all know that Jake is implying that he does not believe that we ARE the 4th best side, despite us being 4th in the league table. I agree with him, I don't think we are the 4th best side.
That said, with a full strength side, I think we can beat anyone on our day, but can also lose to anyone as well

| And yet we've beaten saints twice, or is it just failing to win over teams below us that count on this as yet unseen ranking system?

| This is the post I was originally responding to, since then there's been some horrific backtracking going on:
Quote ComeOnYouUll="ComeOnYouUll"We've played half of the rest of the league twice and played the other half once. I guess it's the same for most other clubs.
To suggest the league table isn't a true reflection of how strong teams are until the season is over is just bollox.
The table usually takes shape after about half a dozen games. Very rarely will a team either collapse and plummet down the table or suddenly go on a long run and shoot up it. Take us, for example, we've been between 4th and 6th since round six back in March.'"
But I think I'm with you guys now I mean five games into last season we were the best team in SL, I still get a warm feeling inside about that and the club reaps the rewards to this day!

I'd be happy to if you're willing to ignore the league table just for a moment and write a justification of how you can see us having a better chance of winning SL than Wigan, Warrington, Saints, Leeds and Hudds?

you obviously missed the words "usually" and "rarely" from the post you refered to.
