We should be winning at these places. No disrespect to any of those teams but I feel they are weaker than us.

I know that but I just feel with the squad we have we shouldn't be losing to said teams. However, its Wigan and anything can bloody happen.

Wakefield at Home.
Hull away.
Castleford away.
Quins at home.
Bradford away.

So how many point will we get out of the 10. Im gonna say 6-8 would be a good start for us.

think youve got the fixtures confused mate

its

wakey home
hull away
cas home
quins away
bradford home

realistically we should be looking at a minimum of 8 points, hull could be sticky but we start a week earlier so we may be a bit fitter, maybe a maximum 10 points, which should lead us into leeds away well.

Quins away is always difficult. We never seem to play well there.
Last year they got off to a flyer and we played catch up for quite a part of the match.
Agree re the rest. Hull is a another one the result is never one to call.
At home they can be very good, away they can be truly awful.
Like at our place last year.

I just wish we had Wire in the first few weeks, having to listen to Lee Briers in the Stag at Orrell on Friday night, stood at the bar with his hangers on, oh sorry, mates, slagging off Feka for his size, laughing at how he looks in a "Tank top" I would give anything to see Feka knock him over and then bury his head into the turf as he passes him. By the look of the amount of Stella he was downing, he needs to be carefull himself. Lee, focus on perfecting your whinging to the ref, and leave Feka to focus on preparing for the new season, where he is once again going to smash you into submission, along with the rest of your underperforming pre-madonas.

Briers whinging at the ref, never

If Feka hits him as hard as he did Graham then Briers will be out for the season.
