I don't think we've had four easy fixtures at all, for a start there are no easy fixtures in Super League, everyone is capable of beating everyone else on their day. Nobody wanted Hull KR away first game of the season, we've played Salford who were in with a shout of the top 4 last season, Catalans away is never a walk in the park, whatever form they're in, and Huddersfield have probably been our biggest bogey team in the Super League era.

While I do think Wigan away is our biggest test so far this season, let's not get sucked into this nonsense that we've had 4 'gimmes' up to now.

Not heard any rubbishing from Wane yet, which.....is unusual.
Although the pies podcast is suggesting we've had 4 walk-ins but....its gonna be a really tough game for them and they're gonna have to be top draw to get anything...????
Can't even begin to unravel the psychology behind that.

Anyway, I ask myself would I be surprised if Wakey went over and took the 2 at Wigan
The clear answer is, no, and without getting all expectacious, (yeah I know that isn't a word) I think we now have the personnel and game plan to do it.....but ya know what its like, best laid plans of mice and men and all that.

Every team that went to Australia lost the following game. That's the context. Cas scraped a win against Widnes.

But we don't know if they would have won if they hadn't gone.

So you agree that the trip had an effect? There we go, I rest my case.

Radford was never going to blame the trip because it was one they chose to go on. Corporate responsbility and all that.

Sorry but I don't think there was a case to rest. I said the trip had an effect (disagreed with Radders) and they chose to chase the money rather than consider the after effects. As you say Radders had to toe the party line.

Tried to record this twice from the Sky planner and ended up with an hour of ice hockey then an hour of indoor bowling. Blinking misleading programme schedule. Does anyone know how I can get to see this episode of Backchat.

Wildshot, go to the Total Rugby League [TotalRL.com] website and you can watch both the first two episodes. Total RL are sponsoring Backchat and you can watch all of the programmes throughout the season on the site.

Re: Backchat : Mon Mar 12, 2018 9:14 pm  

the fact of the matter is that our 4 wins we have had the opponents sit 9-12 on the ladder....


once we start beating 1-8 then we can start to truly believe!!!!!!!
