If you win on Friday then giants and wakey are safe and London are down- - no way are London going to turn over a hundred points difference!

Mathematically possible. As we play each other, every point is worth double in the for and against column. Currently 150 points between the two. If London and Wakey both lose by the same margin, then London need to win by 75 points. Unlikely, highly unlikely, but not impossible.

If London win and Wakey lose, it's all down to the last weekend for four teams (subject to Huddersfield losing).

Based on recent performances they need a heck of a lot more than a washed up former star England international to turn things round.

Is this the first time in rugby league history that every team in the league bar the top team are closer to relegation than they are of finishing top?

If Saints finish the league with 16 points or more they go into the history books as the most dominating team in the league points structure since records began, I think the all conquering Wigan side hold the current record at the moment with 15 pts.

On the relegation I,ve not known so many teams under threat of going down, this weekend we might see the final outcome.

Imagine if they had not thrown the London games, wow, I still believe the extra rest they had due to the 2 extra weeks off led to poor match fitness costing them the challenge cup.
