Will our 8th position move???? : Tue Aug 25, 2009 5:04 pm  

My personal opinion is that we will stay in the top eight still by the end of the final games as the remaining fixtures lye in our favour a little. (This providing we beat Quins)

Final fixtues effecting the 7 and 8 spots in my opinion and predictions:

Catalans Dragons v Wakefield

Harlequins RL v Castleford

Hull KR v Warrington

St Helens v Catalans Dragons

Castleford v Celtic Crusaders

Warrington v Harlequins

whats your predictions?

also if they come in would be a good bet for 3 away wins and then 3 home wins the next week

7th Cas
8th Catalan

We wil play Wakey at their place.

Pies, Whinos, Skints …

Seems remarkably similar to our 1999 play-off charge

If we beat Quins we're there, if not we're on a wing and a prayer unless we batter Celtic and reverse our points difference
