Will Wigan make top 8? : Wed Jun 07, 2017 12:06 pm  

After starting the season really good and winning the world club challenge Wigan seemed to have gone down hill badly this past 8 weeks or so. I am seriously worried about our chances against Leigh! If lockers and sam etc was back and escare and flower did not get injured we would hammer Leigh by about 30-40 points tommorow but with lockers missing the team TOTALLY looks like a really poor side! Wane said that Sam Gelling and Bateman would be back for the Leigh game. I think he is resting players for the top 8s but it could all backfire if we lose all remianing games.

Yes

Will Wigan get to the GF, no

Top 8 yes, top 4 no

Even as bad as things stand it is unimaginable that we won't make the top 8.

If we get Bateman back in the next 2 weeks, yes.

Top 4, win GF.

i reckon 5 or 6. we've too much to do now. the gap is too big, our points diff is just silly & we'd be relying on everyone else to royally mess up. of those above us we only play whinos in the regular season.
time for a rest & accept mid-table mediocrity for this year

The thing about being mid table though is that there are lots of four pointers being played all around us. Salford v Hull, Wakey v Leeds, etc. All four can't win!

Correct. We need to get our own house in order and not worry about anybody else. If we can put a good run of wins together we can really challenge.

Not giving up yet - we need to be no more than four points away from the top 4 when the Super 8s start.

That is still doable, particularly if we can sneak a win this week.
