Middle eights reality : Mon May 22, 2017 9:57 pm  

its time to accept reality that we will finish 11th or 12th.Based on current positions this would mean the following middle 8 fixtures:- 11th Home Toulouse, WIdnes, Hull KR Away London, Featherstone, Catalans, Huddersfield. 12th Home London,Featherstone,Catalans Away Toulouse,Widnes, Hull KR, Huddesfield. So it might be important to finish 11th so we avoid the plastic pitch. The one constant will be the 10th club away- who would we prefer? Possibly not Catalans?

I can't believe that anyone thought we would get into the top eight at the start of the season.

Doubt many will have. Maybe some got carried away after the warrington game, including some within the club. But is/was top 10 so unfeasible? There is a seeming resignation on needing to win the MPG to stay in SL next season, which is a step backwards from last season.
