I think that our history and previous 'unreliability' has a lot to do with some of the 'nervous' thinking on here, that unease that to beat Saints three times is an achievement in itself, so four will be pushing it to the limit. I've no idea whether some of our collective thinking would be more positive if we were coming into this game 2-1 ahead with wins or even 1-2 where we'd have learned our lesson or been unlucky so it was our turn to put things right....

Saints had a winning streak against us which lasted about 10 years. I wonder if they used to get nervous when they played us thinking "we can't beat them nineteen times in a row surely..."

Also didn't Saints have the name "the bottlers" on this forum for a while?

Nope, that would have been immature.

We called them the ‘Bocklers’.

I'm not nervous. Incidentally I've had two probably unrelated moments of panic this morning:

- First when I couldn't find my second P&B sock
- Second, when I took my kid swimming and I thought the instructor was going to give him a red float instead of a blue one.

Do you need to go see a priest and be exorcised before kick off.

Last night was a tough game & will have taken a lot out of us for this Friday`s game, but we are now battle hardened after 3 relatively easy games where we didn`t concede a try.

Hull KR have had a week off, but the week`s rest didn`t seem to help Salford on Friday, from what I saw,

You guys can beat HKR.
Mikey Lewis is their star player but Minchella is the one who makes the whole team work and he's missing. He's a massive miss.
You will also have Vaughan better than v Saints. After 3 weeks off he wasn't at his best. Next Friday he will be back to his best. A Wire win is on the cards, we shall see.
