If rovers don't win something this year (hopefully not the Challenge cup!!!) then they never will. They look mean and hungry and they have quality throughout their ranks, right now at this moment they are clearly the team to beat.
However, and here's the caveat, September-October is still a long way away (even Wembley in June) and there are any number of hurdles for everyone still to jump over before any trophies are handed around. Didn't Warrington, a couple of years back, start like a house on fire only to lose their way badly in the second half of the year. Going a little further back, Castleford dominated 2017 barely losing a game throughout the regular season, but ultimately didn't win either of the two big prizes (seem to recall we halted their Wembley bid in spectacular fashion!!).
Rovers look the part right now, but you don't win a trophy just because you've won five games in Feb-March. As for the comparison, that someone made above, with St Helens 2006-vintage, well let's just say it made me chuckle on a Sunday night! rovers have to maintain this level all the way to mid-October for that to stick, not simply because of five games pre-Easter!!
