And therein lies the problem, Hull KR also have players to come in and before Sunday (and still) had played one less friendly less than us and still managed to defend properly and attacked excellently winning the game by 34 points, have the hit their straps before us in less games? They are a team we'll need to compete with this season for any chance of getting [i"in the eight"[/i from what I've seen over the four friendlies we look no different in either defence or attack as last season, the attack more so as on Sunday we used the same "moves" as last season (and they didn't work then most of the time) HKR had us worked on from the kick off oh and never mind having Patten at fullback we could still have Gary Tyrer (remember him?
) it won't make any difference if we're going to have him on the end of the same moves as Fitzy for the last few years, we'll get him murdered!
Sorry MM I'm not ranting at you, or anyone really for that matter, I'm just concerned we haven't moved on even with this undoubtedly talented squad we've assembled. I desperately want us to do well this season of all seasons and still think we'll win in Cardiff and haven't lost all my faith just yet (why would I, I've lasted over 30 years on scraps so far
) but we've used up our pre-season games with little effect so the next two weeks could be massive, Shaun it's over to you!
Thanks for listening, it's like therapy!
