No chance Stan it would be like me winning the Lotto no chance, or like a bus selling Bisto even if they do advertise it on the side of the bus

I will have to be careful here as i may end up agreeing with you , Hull got beat in the semi by in my opinion the best team in superleague as much as i hate leeds and your new singing who's name i refuse to mention was head and shoulders above both Hull and Cas.As for the big four they no longer exist only in the eyes sky Tv. Last years superleague was probably the poorest so far Castleford being shown up twice in big games by Hull and Leeds.
As for Hull , Fonua has been replaced by a player just as big but with pace and Ellis having only played half the games through injury is replaced by Abdul , Hadley , Fash or Turgut all young guns waiting to take there place.

I don't think leeds were the best team in SL but they probably played their best 2 games of the season in the play offs and therefore deservedly won the comp. We were pretty poor in the game at headingley but only lost by virtue of a missed goal kick and had we played anything near our potential on the night I think we'd have lifted teh trophy as cas were never going to win it

Sheens won't do what Chester did with pre-season 2015-16.

The horror of 2016 means complacency won't seep back in for a good long while, I reckon.

Rovers nailed 2017 - like something you nail to something else.

I want us to have a bit of swagger again. A few good signings and we can bruise quite a few egos in this league, IMO. And stamp, metaphorically, on its weaklings. Demoralise the ********s.

A lot of having a decent season in SL is about having a big enough squad and staying relatively injury free. If you do that you'll probably make the 8 as there will be 4 teams who won't.

Realistic aims for this season?
1. Kill Bill
2. Get Jake banned.

I set the bar high. Morally high.

My aim would be to stay up by hook or by crook I do not care were we finish in the top 8s just do not go done again

thought Sheens would be doing his buisness early snapping up the wantaway players (the ones that you don't have to pay over the odds for) the longer we go without getting these players the more chance there is of getting into buisness of trying to prize away players and dangle the golden carrat, thought we would be smart and do it all early.

Maybe you and 'Tim' should work together clevercloggs, completely missing my point.
