That's a really costly loss for Wigan tonight. We've got a chance of pretty much ending their top 4 chances next week when we go there. They'll need to be much much better than they were tonight because they were very poor.

You'll beat us easily. Scoreline might be close but the game won't be! Leeds are still my bet for a SL and CC double.

Guaranteed 2nd place now (congrats Lioner 81 ) so fixtures we get are

Home vs 3rd - 4th - 6th -7th
Away vs 1st - 5th - 8th

Cas away is now guaranteed, other positions tbd but a if we beat Wigan away next week we'd condemn them to 8th spot and book another away trip to the DW.

Wouldn't ever wish us getting beat but next week we'd be better for it. We've got 2nd in the bag so rest a few players for the semi final. Warrington win, Wigan win, Hull FC win, Salford win, St Helens win, Castleford win.

Looks much better in the eights with:
Home - Salford, St Helens, Hull FC, Wigan.
Away - Castleford, Huddersfield, Wakefield.

Than:
Home - Salford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, St Helens.
Away - Castleford, Hull FC, Wigan.

Fancy Wakey to beat Saints and think with one eye of the SF that Hull could slip up at home vs Hudds which would then leave

Home - Salford (3rd) Wakey (4th) Hudds (6th) Saints (7th)
Away - Cas (1st) Hull (5th) Wigan (8th)

Thing is with a win away to Wigan next week we reach 32 points which would put us one foot into the playoffs before the 8's start imo. Think we'd only need to win 3 of our 8's fixtures then to get 2nd spot which I think could be achieved with 38 points.

Despite thinking we'd finish 6th at the start of the year & our best chance of silverware being the CC i now don't fear any of the other teams in the top 8.
Of course Wigan away is ALWAYS a tough game for us & we haven't looked like beating Cas all year but i think we should have enough to now secure 2nd then it's anybodies & no-one knows how Cas will handle it.
