Thank the Lord its back!!!

It's back! The Super League season starts proper tonight with a game between Leeds Rhinos (aka 2007 Champs) and Hull KR (aka The Sith, the dark side, that pile of rubbish from East Hull, etc, etc)
There is just the one game this week as the season starts for everyone else next week. This is so Leeds have a free weekend later on in the season to play in the World Club Challenge.
Hopefully we will have had our crop of injuries for the season, and will be able to crack on to frighten everyone to death! I'm very optimistic (as always)


The best of luck to Gary Mac on his first game as Leeds boss. I have a feeling all will fall into place now. We have one of our own in charge. Come on you Mighty Whites!!!

And finally, for your entertainment, a couple of fantastic trys by the one of the best players to grace a Hull FC shirt, James Leuluai.

i went to leeds, was very impressed. just a pity about the last 10 mins but what can you do with no ball.

The old man went as well. I think it was a bit of Silverwood being a prat, and tiredness that created more penalties for Leeds. Ben Cockayne is a bit of a silly prat, a really hard worker but a bit of a loose cannon. Any team defending multiple sets of 6 like that against the Rhinos are going to give away points. respecting possession is the 1st rule of defence.
Having said all that Drovers were dead good. That Jake Webster looks well impressive.
