Looks like quite a few midweek fixtures looking at those dates abs Catalan away is 29/30th July which is a Thursday or Friday, that seems a bit strange

It's because it's a double-game weekend, with us playing Salford on the Sunday or Monday.

On the face of it, it would seem better to meet the so called top teams early on before they get into their stride and it does give us an easier run in.

I see us being 1 from 7 anone else ????? its a worrying draw for us especially if we get any injuries we are going to be towards the bottom of the ladder in first 2 months - if we have injuries will we get out of it ?

It's all about scraping a couple of "W's" in those early games, before everyone is fully into their stride.
Leigh, with their "golden ticket", have to be favourites for the wooden spoon but, they go into the season with no pressure on them whatsoever.
With our squad as it is, we need some luck with injuries, especially in the forwards, we seem one and possibly 2 props light.

A good finish would be 8th and anything better would be excellent and then hopefully build from there.

I'd take 8th /9th and for work to start on the ground

Leeds are definitely going to be missing Walker (for the season !!) and Lui according to this... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/56259865 And isn't Gayle currently injured as well ??

Every club gets injuries and Trinity are definitely due a change of luck after the past couple of seasons and the bigger clubs, with larger squads (like Leeds) should cope better than most. It comes down to who, how many and how long for. I think that we have decent cover and some good options in our spine and if some of our young lads continue to develop, things could look pretty good for us.

The article suggests a recovery time of 10 weeks from an operation scheduled for 13th January which is 24th March. The season has been delayed 2 weeks since the article was written.

It was originally said Gale would be touch and go for the start of the season but then the season was put back 2 weeks so he may be ok.
Still looks like you have one of the toughest starts though.
