just a long shot, and very long one, also a big if, if we manage to beat cas and wire, (providing wire have nothing to play for and rest some players), that would put us on 29pts, if leeds beat wakey then lose at huddersfield, they would also finish on 29pts, there could be a chance we pip them to 6th on points difference!


like a said, its a long shot

Keep drinking that wine mate !

Wire nothing to play for ? Cas Away ? under Captain Mannering we lose these games and under Morgan Rovers seem to have a better ratio in must win games. I fear a 9th position not 6th , based on our Coach and leopard spots etc

I do not think Cas will lose both of their games, one of the Hull teams will face a loss, not sure which one though.

no doubt we'll end up with Ganson as referee for our game, and everyone will blame him!

Not really that long a shot. If Wigan beat Wire in the next round then Wire have nothing to play for, so may rest a few against us.
And there's nothing surprising about Leeds losing to 4th placed Hudds. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Wakey beat them after this last weekend's results!

You forget to mention that 5th placed Catalans are also on 29 points. Rovers (who are chasing a spot in the and Salford away (they've already lost to them this season)...

Should change the name of the thread to 5th!

Well I don't think they will win at Craven Park so I hope your theory is wrong.

Can't see Cas beating Rovers so we have to beat Cas. Its as simple as that really.

Still plenty to play for and anything could happen imo.We have a good points difference and hitting form at the business end of the season.It showed last season when we lost in the last game and went from 4th to 6th, that no team can take anything for granted.I think we are better equipped to deal with that this time around.I for one am very confident the way we are playing at the moment.

Aside from winning 3 games more than Cas from the last 10 presumably.
