Irs never easy to defend any trophies, there to be shot at.

See these off no problem though!

Ah bring it on. If we can beat Saints it gets rid of a main contender early. If we lose then we can focus on the league without distraction.

I’m not holding out expectations of silverware this year. I just want us to build a platform for a real push in 2022. For me our side needs to be a little better yet before we go into a season with real confidence.

Mid-table with some real development time on the youngsters, plus some decisions made on out-of-contract players and a couple of high-quality signings - I’d take that.

Don't think either set of fans will be complaining. From our perspective we could either give it a proper go or rest a few and give some younger players a crack depending on circumstance.

Thought we had RFL in the pocket, and could pick our opponents...?

You don't rest players for CC especially when we are the holders.

You mean Saints def going out then

What's the matter, Ploinerhino? So many of your posts betray a contempt towards the club and the players. I'm sure your views are honestly held but sometimes I can't help wonder if you aren't a Cas fan in disguise. I know everything isn't rosy, but if team ran out with your level of negativity they'd ship fifty every week.
