Why are we worried about the filth? They should be worrying about us.
Start with Ed on Pendles and have at it, make them sort out the rest.
If we don’t win, we aren’t serious about this year.

As expected, pretty ill.......
Paying them due respect which is mandatory in this league, we are in no position to get that far ahead of ourselves that we don’t need to put time into the oppositions strengths, we have paid the price severely for this in the past.

we are seriously in no position to get ahead of ourselves - to the point we really should be lapping ourselves backwards.........

But then, teams and coaches that don't put time into their opponents generally don't wind up winning, regardless of how good/poor/ahead/behind their side is...Paying them due respect which is mandatory in this league, we are in no position to get that far ahead of ourselves that we don’t need to put time into the oppositions strengths, we have paid the price severely for this in the past.
Pretty sure we're premiership favourites... Pretty sure.

They are depleted and in a slump, if we don’t take this chance to beat them, we haven’t improved much because expectations have made us nervous for too long. We only seem to play free football when we don’t expect to win against good sides or we let shit sides build a sizeable lead. We have given back plenty of big leads when we start to think about winning from that position.Paying them due respect which is mandatory in this league, we are in no position to get that far ahead of ourselves that we don’t need to put time into the oppositions strengths, we have paid the price severely for this in the past.
We need to execute our preferred game plan and force their makeshift side find a counter to it. If we cannot do that, we are not as advanced as hoped.
Yep
Hold up gang, we are missing 8 players who have featured heavily in our best 22 in the last 18 months.
Love our high expectations as a collective, but let's go easy on basing the success of this (or any) year on outcomes alone. We are not proven enough yet to be doing so.

Yeah, want to see some growth though Azz.
Still getting bullied by stronger teams, we are standing up to them for longer. Still let physically strong teams with shit skills (looking at you Norf) drag us down with their tactics. At least we don’t let them blow us away anymore.
Next is embracing expectations and feeding off it rather than letting it paralyse us.
Fix this, we are ready.

Saints me thinks and really push for 7/8. a draw would keep it interesting though.

yes of course ...my bad...saints are 6th. i read their ladder position incorrectly as 7th. so better for dees to lose and we fight for position 7/8.
