The major point is that we've played the other 3 particularly strong teams in yourselfs, Wire and Leeds and we've won all three. The only other major worry is Hudds, but if we can stay reasonably consistent then not many other teams should trouble us. Not being cocky, just we've played the best in the league, away, and beaten them. I think we'll finish 2nd behind wire though personally, still think our pack isn't strong enough.
True, but you need to be winning these games at the end of the season when it matters. I've seen leeds teams in the past knock off the main contenders early doors but then faail when it matters. Now we seem to be the opposite.
I think leeds would have given you a much better game with a bit of form and a few more players in the team. In fact I daresay all things being equal the teams would be very evenly matched, and at OT?....the leeds players just love that old trafford night.
I think theres 4/5 teams that are very evenly matched so when it comes to the playoffs it's going to be very close and tight.
Enjoy your form now, but it never lasts forever, you will hit a sticky patch and beating the contenders now is no guarantee of success in october.
