Re: 19 for Castleford : Fri Mar 30, 2018 9:38 am
Maybe we are victims of some over hyping pre season if you like, there was talk of this being the best squad in 30 years etc, and that may well be borne out as the season goes on, lets hope so. I just think generally people are expecting a bit more from us, we just haven't played that convincingly in any of the games so far, but obviously done enough in the first 4 to get the points. I also think the conditions in some of the games have been a red herring, HKR, Salford, Catalans, Wigan & Warrington, although cold, were decent enough conditions for February and March. Last year has probably given us expectations to 'kick on' so to speak this year, and it's like we're nearly hitting our straps but not quite yet! Let's face it, it's gonna be difficult to crack that top 4, the last 2 seasons no one saw Leeds and Warrington being so poor, doesn't look like that's gonna happen this year with one of the big guns.......although, brings me to Hull, if, they lose today, they are gonna be under a bit of pressure on Monday against us I think from their demanding fans, so maybe a HKR win could help us over there, and it looks like the weather could be similar to last night.
