Sot on there Wilzay lad, there should be no room for complacency.

But it's not a must win game that's the point. I'm sure they do try and treat it as such but it isn't.

Must win for me 2 points good start to the campaign

Brian McDermott summed it up perfectly on BBC radio Leeds last night when asked a question about Stevie Ward not playing he responded "If it was a final he would be playing, but we are not going to risk him for a regular weekly fixture"

If this was a must win game then we would have to throw everything at it, but it is not..This is the first game of the season and we have a full season to think about.

For the people saying this is a must win game, do you then put it in the same bracket at the MPG?

Ultimately its a game we should be winning to be in the top 8. If we are wanting to finish above a team like Hull KR, we should be taking the 2 points from them, and in the process preventing them from gaining 2 points.

BetFred giving 6/5 for a straight Hull KR win so I might have a lump at that just to make a defeat a bit more tolerable. Would be happy to walk away with a hit in the pocket.

EDIT: Hull KR now 11/8

I bet that you would settle for losing tomorrow if we went unbeaten for the rest of the season afterwards (including the cup)

I have it on good authority as of yesterday we have sold over 900 tickets so looks like we will have nearly 1000 supporters. Really good sales so come on Trin.

A little belated but we'll done Wakefield.

We were following the game in a tapas bar.

It sounded like we won quite easily without really hitting top gear.

Hopefully no injuries.

Can't wait for Salford game.

Bring it on
