Sorry, but as it stands: We are third Salford are at home to 7th placed Huddersfield We are away at the team top by 6 with a game in hand who are keen favourites to win.
I'm not sure us finishing the weekend 4th is an entirely outlandish scenario.
I think this thread could be accused of been a little to negative, we are in good form, beaten them twice already, as knocker said, if we turn up with the right attitude, with a real intensity, I don't see why we cant beat them again. 32-16 Hull win
Just for redress, it is a tiny minority of Cas fans who think this will be anything other than a desperately tough game. Hull are a top team and will come and give it everything backed up by terrific support.
Hope its a great game and the atmosphere is what it should be.
Too tough to call IMHO.

Mrs B was simply responding to the below statement:

Not sure what she did wrong there tbh.

4th is entirely possible. But every game you play it down as though we don't stand a chance. I just dont get it, is it your way of trying to take pressure off the team or are you just hugely glass half empty?

We're all different I suppose. I rarely make predictions on here, but I'm pretty confident leading up to the vast majority of games, dare I say it I'm pretty confident for tonight, even if it means going against logic. Sometimes that mind set means I come crashing back to Earth with a thud, but that's sport.
Maybe for Mrs B it's a case of mentally preparing for the worst, hope for the best? Or, by playing down our chances and citing the reasons why, if we come out with a win it's unexpected and even sweeter, if we lose then it was expected and so what?
