Its good to get a win and 2 points on the board but lets not kid ourselves.... It was far from excellent. We played an extremely poor French team that look destined to be wooden spooners. We emerged from the game with only an Handful of players coming away with any credibility, notably Lunt, Salter and Atkin. I watched back when I got home and it was as bad on TV as it was in real time. The media bumped on about Dagger but IMO he is a way of been the same level as Quinlan or even Marsh at FB!!!! He failed to pouch a few kicks, was beaten in a foot race for their try and didn't look very good positionally, not slating the kid completely as he does have potential but against a decent team this year he will be out of his depth. A spell at York may do him the world of good.

Salter must play the next game even if Heff is fit, he made our right edge look defensively strong for the first time in a long time.

2 points is 2 points though so lets beat Salford now

Yes it still has the capacity to be another stinker of a season for us but looking at things so far Widnes look poor despite running Cas and Warry close.Catalans still tough at home but poor coach and look vulnerable.Salford are hard to fancy over the season as look bit weak behind first 17?Warry look like champs on paper but not clicked yet.Wakey Cas Hull could should be top 6 but one of them may slip into bottom 4.Hudds are hard to call at mo? Only Leeds Wig and Saints have looked the part so far.We as a team just have to give everything we have each game and win majority of home games and sneak a few away.Hoping this VaiVai lad is good for us and a few decent forwards due back fit.Im more hopeful than I was but will probably be a few bad days sprinkled in with the good. Early days but I like our spirit so far

I'm not sure why you think Leeds have looked the part so far. 2 stuttering wins against 2 middle 8s teams from last year and a dry bumming in oz doesnt look great to me

Warry away is always tough and playing the best club side in the world with half a pack missing then Melbourne is pretty good I'd say?

get your facts right before posting

Its hard to call at the moment who's good and who's bad. Saints look the part definitely but aside from that the rest have yet to impress.

Cas look like they have the potential to have a dip season.
Wire just look devoid of ideas but reckon they'll pick up
Hull were looked good at Hudds but poor against Wigan in odd circumstances
Wigan looked good against Hull but didn't take chances
Wakey could be the dark horses and be this years Salford
Leeds I'm not sure of

The Oz games I'm not sure we can take much from in terms of performance, The Wigan Hull game will have been affected by travel, the WCC was just a mismatch but that would have happened against any SL team and the other 2 were handled as friendlies with too many changes to gauge how good any one was.
