10 wins good enough? : Wed Mar 30, 2016 10:20 am  

10 wins was good enough to scrape into the top eight last year. A win at Wakefield sees Salford halfway there with 13 games to play.

With so many teams in the mix this season I think a couple of more wins may be required to guarantee a top eight finish.

Think we are currently in limbo untill the outcome of our alleged salary cap breach.

I don't think the gulf in quality is as clear cut this season between the top 8 and bottom 4, so my gut feeling is that we'll need a few more wins under our belt than last season.

I believe the standard of Superleague has dropped this year which was rightly highlighted in the World Club Challenge. This is why theres close nip and tuck scorelines. There's usually a lot more drubbins. I also believe positions 5-10 will be closely competitive with Goal difference being the decisive tool for separating the quagmire of clubs bunched between 5-10

I still can't believe we have a positive goal difference (+5) after 9 games

I still can't believe we have scored 5 goals.
I blame the linesmen.

Yeah it’s a very fat rule of the thumb.

I think if we got to 22/24 points (any reduction aside) we would be safely top 8, does make it so annoying when capitulate as away at Hull KR and the poor showing Good Friday. Still think we have a big scalp or 2 in us this season and Leeds in a couple of weeks is a prime example.

Still having 7 homes games is good, improve on the 50/50 home win ratio so far this season and that will go a decent way towards that.

Any points deducted for the trouble could make a difference.
