Was just listening to a RL based podcast, not too impressed but 10/10 for trying, anyway the question raised was 'As the new season approaches which set of supporters should be most excited?'.



The 'very knowledgable' chat panel

came up with the following top three...



1. Salford

2. Warrington

3. Hull KR



And least excited...



St Helens fans.



Being a Saints fan this expectadly repulsed me (i swear it has nothing to do with my opinon on the podcast

) New coach, new captain/s, Perry, Shenton, LMS, fit(ish) Eastmond/Pryce/Soliola - I'm damn excited.



Granted we're all excited. But is it just me who thinks the top three, bar Wire, is a poor call?

They must have missed Salford's pre season games then, becasue they've removed any excitement that was present amongst Reds fans.

theres a real buzz around cas at the moment and whilst not anticipating us troubling the top teams we certainly feel we are turning the corner has a club with exciting youngsters,top class sponsorship and a new stadium on the horizon we could have a good year.

Wakefield.



Reason: The current board looks like they're finally fooking off.

Gotta say I'm very exited and very optimistic ahead of another SL season for Cas

Think Wigan should be there with the world club challenge, top signings and the task of defending the title. As a Giants fan I'm really excited due to the team having a great pre season and we are getting better and closer to winning some silverware

what about widnes. Likely to get their franchise announced and they have the taster of Saints playing every other week there.

I'm excited.......oh rugby.... yes that too



To be fair though i'm not impressed with Wire being the first game at MM, if we lose that just ruins the whole thing and if we win all the wire fans will be blind drunk.



I'm excited we finally have a class kicker in Hodgson.

I think this is our strongest squad we've had in SL so with or without Mason we have plenty to be excited about. Of course it will come down to form and injuries which no one can predict but I expect us to be challenging this year.

I bet about 60-80% of fans in the stadium will be too!

I think that's the good thing about this year, everyone believes they have what it takes (with a couple of good, lucky results) to get to the CC semi/final and to the back end of the playoffs. Think it's wide open myself this year and only a couple of teams have been left behind (Wakie, Crusaders, Quins). Hopefully when we play you on the last day of the season we'll (Cas) already be in the playoffs unlike last year with that last kick. God that hurt.
