Cas will have a tough time against Wakey, could easily lose that one

I do think people are over egging other teams.

Warrington have had similar form to Leeds recently without the distraction of the CC.

I agree it will be a forward dominated game if we are to win, but hopefully the back to back games will keep us a bit fresher. I do think the week off never helps Saints players. Which will be ironic if we do finish top.

You don't get a week off if you finish top, unless I'm misunderstanding your post.

You do if you win your first game.

Which would be the point of finishing top as 4th should be easier than 2nd or 3rd

Even more so now the winners are confirmed in the new Wrold club challenge: http://www.therfl.co.uk/news/article/31 ... collide-in (Assuming 3rd highest ranked team means the team who finished highest outside of the grandfinalists, not just the team that finished in 3rd ... or that the losers of the semi will be playing a 3rd place playoff)

It never was IMO and despite last night's performance if you win it you win it and good luck to you, if Cas catch you then fair play to them also. All the conspiracy theorists about the GF is the only true measure of a Champion team and it's best to finish X,Y or Z might just have to have a rethink and that can't be a bad thing

I've said all along I hope we make old Trafford but after just beating 12 men of Leeds who had burrow and maguire sat in the stand and last nights hammering I've changed my mind. We would get snotted if we get there and surely be on the end of the grand final record score.

Let's leave it a year ey
