Top 4 of wire, hull, wigan and leeds in no particular order. Can't see anyone else getting a sniff. Early days but amazed many pundits tipped saints and that's not just because of Thursday...always thought they would struggle this year. Hull look very good

Think they'll probably win the Grand Final and Challenge Cup this year.

Don't agree with the last bit, Talanoa has been a fantastic finisher during his Hull career. I'd go far as saying if he was a lot faster. He would be world class, I don't think I'm the only Hull fan who thinks that either.

Last year we started with a win against your lot followed by 4 straight losses. How is that 'looking strong'?

I will personally be disappointed with anything less than the Treble and major representation at international level.

Not at all, I think every single one of us would agree with you.
Probably my favourite player now. He's not the quickest but god he is strong. Always makes yards after contact and it's not uncommon to see him break through the tackles and make a break.
And I agree on the finishing aspect. He's scored some great trys in his short Hull career and outside Carlos I expect him to score a whole lot more. It wouldn't be suprising to see him challenging for the top try scorer this year.... if the team can keep this form up!

Edit: I say playing outside Carlos, but he's also got Pritchard on his side too, and Sneyd (who had a great game yesterday) will also be operating on that edge, so all the signs look good for Binman.

Lets see where we are after five rounds. If we are still top people will take notice.

i am basing it on the recruitment and the good start you made after 3/4 games , your board was fairly content at that point.


apologies, i thought you had won your first 3/4 and were top after a few rounds or am i thinking of wakefield

tongue in cheek?

So you're trying to say that a team cannot look poorly coached?

When a team with the quality of players at Catalans disposal has very little in terms of attacking or defensive structure, when a team are playing like a group of individuals and when they have incredibly poor discipline, I'd say they look very poorly coached.

If a team cannot look poorly coached, does that mean they cannot look like they're well coached also?
