Very brave Reffy to forecast these teams,myself,I don't want to tempt fate ,the next phase the 8's will be so intense I can't wait ,but I can't pick 4 teams it's that close.

Agree though I do think Bradford could go up, all depends on how Salford (already with their notorious off field problems and inconsistent performances in SL) take to struggling in the Qualifiers. Salford could think "Oh Right this really is it, better pull our fingers out!" or they could just as easily completely implode.

Bradford to finish bottom and Wakey and Leigh to play out the million pound game for me. It would be nice if the million pound game was 2 championship teams though so failing my prediction we can have a Leigh V Fax final game. No niggling either, Bradford tried it today and look where it got them, bloody yorkies.

It is going to be a crazy few weeks.

We are capable of beating the likes of Widnes and HKR if we perform to our best but if we drop off even a little we will be in danger of losing to Fax and Sheffield. I think we have shown we are the best team in the Championship but we have to prove it in the 8's. I think we are better than Wakefield and the equal of Salford, on grass if not on paper. But we have to show up and prove it over the next few weeks. The next 2 months will be the most exciting and nerve wracking in a long time.

I also think the order of fixtures will play a huge part. I can't wait for Wednesday morning.

Although I wish we could share you optimism and excitement for the middle 8's. I think they'll be some good games but I think there will be some blow out scores too (not including you men) and if we hadn't conceded a last second try to Warrington a few weeks ago we'd have made the top 8.

Do you think Leigh and Bradford have a good enough defence consistently against SL teams? (Serious question). 36 conceded against Warrington, 36 all Bradford V Leigh - that's a lot of points and your attack has been excellent all year, but will be up against better defence.

...and Salford could be in trouble IMO. They have no confidence even after going 20-10 up against us yesterday. Didn't know how to close the game out.

My 4 are Widnes, Hull KR, Leigh, Salford (just) with Bradford and Wakefield for the play off game.
