I can see why Leeds fans will be confident, and to be fair they should win this game and do well this year. However sport is full of upsets and if we are on our game we may ruffle some feathers. Under-estimation will be our friend this season.

Haven’t they missed the playoffs and finished 8th 2 years running? I could understand some confidence but when it’s beyond doubt and that they can see easy wins it doesn’t really match their performances last few seasons. I just don’t see it.

They are at home and should be favourites but if we are expecting and aiming for the 6-9 bracket then Leeds will likely be in that same bracket. I wouldn’t call it an upset with the expectation the club and fans have to beat the 8th best team in SL.

Under estimation though as you said could really help us this season in some game preparations.

Wish the season would hurry up and start. Ready for it now.

The difference at Leeds is the coach.
They are bound to perform better under him.

We have a very hard first four games.
Although it's possible we can win them all the odds are against us. It will take some time for us to adjust to Super League.
But of all those 4 games, I see this as our best chance.

Perhaps they will, we will have to see. I suppose making playoffs this year would be a success for them.

We do have a hard first 4 games but I’m fine with us having some tough fixtures to start. It will certainly give us an indicative level for where we need to be at. Sometimes good to catch clubs that haven’t hit their strides just yet.

Couldn't think of a better 1st fixture tbh......

Maybe Hudds who have had a terrible pre season. They’ve been beaten by a fev side with players playing out of position and only 3 subs and had a lot of first teamers in. Hudds were horrible dnd of last season and it looks like they’ll struggle this year too

Sound in dire straits do Shudds. 3 more gone off injured today too.

Yer let's not count our chickens.
A couple of injuries in key positions and it could change our whole season.

Catalans Dragons had six missing through either injury or suspension for their warm up game against Toulouse. They lost both their centres to injury during the match, which they won 42-10,
leaving them a bit on the short side for their Challenge Cup game against Halifax this weekend
