I am pleased we have early games against relegation fodder. We should be looking to get maximum points against these teams and begin to effectively click in time for the more competitive teams.
In addition we might have clearance for overseas signings by then in addition to quality super league loans.
We can afford to lose only 2/3 games in the campaign to give us a chance of qualifying for the play offs.
Aim for the top. Nothing is impossible.

It makes no difference what we would like, to be fair - it is what it is, but I can't see any logic in actually wanting to play our most important games when we are at our weakest. As you correctly point out, we should be hoping o to pick up maximum points in these games, as things are we are likely to pick up very few.

As it stands the "relegation fodder" very much includes us and you can bet your bottom dollar those teams will be busting their balls in their own must win games. I think Sir Geoffrey of Tooveyshire is in for the mutha fucka of all shocks.

Great idea, lets just ask the RFL, I'm sure they could rearrange the season for us - we are their favourites after all

KR said they want to help us - so this would be a start

In fact, if we play all three KR games in the first weekend they might actually get that 10,000 crowd (in total)

I think the rfl would rather give us are 12 points back than mess up their fixture list

Wombat is Mick Gledhill. An alternative fact you were unaware of.
