    Default At Last: An Honest Season Preview

    I've seen too many same old same old season previews that are basically all set to the same template but with different team names dependent upon the writer.

    This, however, is a breath of fresh air and well worth a blooming good read.

    Make a brew, sit back and enjoy:

    Brilliant! Love the tapas in Wigan quips and the comments on living in Cas. Is the bloke a Leeds fan?

    Very good read but I can imagine some preferring the "insert name here" type of preview

    This actually made me LOL! ;-)

    Yep, St Helens are more successful than you, and they’re still rolling out Paul Wellens
    Jammer for Captain!

    The wheels fell off when it said Saints were second to Leeds on super league titles. They're not. Schoolboy error.

    Read Hull KR - Don't know how hard he's trying, but he's funny!

    I like the one about Widnes - "Mostly made up of players that are too old to play for Warrington, Wigan and St Helens, but don’t want to move house, and some retiring pacific islanders." Harsh but probably true!

    Is this a young future Wigan coach learning from an old Wigan coach how to swear and cuss at the players...

    If you watch it to the end you see the Wigan walk and the terraces empty when wigan were getting beat. Nothing changes.

    Superb, irreverent stuff (no wonder the "guy" seems to want to keep himself incognito). Laughed out loud at some of the things said about other clubs/players. I will never look at Charnley and Hardaker in the same light again. Wish i could write like that. The people behind guyjest.com are into other stuff. The site is described as "Sports,Hot Girls and Irresponsible Reporting".
    Bring back Bobbie Goulding!
    On a more serious note, looking again at that video of the Wane rant in the dressing room, surely Wane must be classed as accessory before the fact in the Flower crime.How he has escaped censure is beyond me.

    Some clever comments and knowledgeable to. Some one mentioned a Leeds fan. For me it could be a Saint's fan
