Play offs yey or nay : Sat Jul 16, 2022 8:33 pm  
Is it better if we don’t sneak into the play offs this year. Good month off Get the of preseason starting early, get the dross out and new signings in, hit the ground running next year.

Think making the semis last year paper over the cracks, really believe RS could be the best coach in SL and 2023 could be 2004 all over again.

Thoughts?

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Reluctantly we need to miss out. We’re not one of the best 6 teams, and that needs addressing. More time off, and / or time to prepare for next year is of more value.

Actually, think the first focus is not getting sucked back into the relegation fight. Suspensions and injuries are making it difficult. I don't forsee a wins against Wigan or Catalans with likely absentees. Quite possible that Tolouse will be on 14 points in two weeks time.

Come the end of the year I reckon it'll be Wakefield at the bottom. We will pick up enough points to be hopefully just outside playoffs with some good perfomaces and building well for next year.

Looking at the remaining fixtures Wakey could be in trouble. Saints, Catalans, Wigan and HKR at home and Hull, HKR, Cas and Saints away. Think they have to get maximum points out of the Hull games to stand a chance. Might get a break if Saints have wrapped up the LLS before the penultimate round as they're not averse to fielding a weakened team but they've also got Toulouse in the last match. Round 25 Wigan v Saints should determine where the LLS is going as I can't see either of them dropping any points up to that game. If Wigan get the gap down to 2 points by Round 26 then it could be very interesting. Wigan v Catalans last game? Tasty!

Given we will probably be 10th in 2 weeks time I doubt we will be troubling the play-offs. We will be closer to going down that the play offs by the time we play Salford at home.

I’d always prefer to make the play offs if we can. Having a longer pre-season by 1 or 2 weeks won’t make any difference to 2023.

I think we will be better next year as long as we avoid an injury crisis.

For smith I think 2024 will be key as he will be able to make this more his side and about half the salary cap will be up for review by end
Of 2023.

Yep. With the majority of the squad fit and not banned, we probably are top six, but since that never happens you have to accept that the table doesn't lie.

Wakefield but near to Leeds!

Re: Play offs yey or nay : Sun Jul 17, 2022 5:08 pm  
When you look at both the Wire and Leeds roster both teams should be nowhere near the bottom.
Wire in particular who scraped a win against Hull and beat us when we were down to 11 men.
Those two wins are 2 losses and they are joint bottom.
I too would love us to be top 6 but wouldn`t be shocked if we finish out of it this year.
Another rebuild next year then.
Is that the 6th or 7th year our rebuilding takes place?

This thread is bizarre and it’s unbelievable some fans don’t want us to make the play offs.
