Looking at the fixtures, including our own, this weekend could be an opportunity to maybe close the gap on that elusive top 4. On the back of our best performance of the season against Wigan, confidence should be sky high, and with ample preparation time, we have a good chance of toppling Warrington. Obviously they are a quality team, who will have been disappointed with their efforts against Cas, but if we perform anything like we must surely go close. If we do beat them, then hopefully Widnes, the league table could look very interesting indeed......
I hope we've watched the Cas video and learnt something from it - Cas were on the ropes, and having tried to work out what they did to upset the Wire fluency, I don't think it was anything more complicated than digging deep and playing really fast and hard, and being very aggressive in both attack and defence. I don't know if we have the ability to do that - but I'd like to see us try.

Hopefully yes, like you say they certainly did dig deep, and maybe just wanted it that bit more? Who knows, maybe we were helped by Wigans' cup exit, ironically against our next opponents, Wire will want to get back on track, and have had decent rest, so if we keep our form up, could be an enjoyable, and high quality game.
It will take a huge effort and hopefully Wire not being at 100%. Not the end of the world if we lose this one but would build some serious momentum heading in to the end of the regular season.

Didn't really see any signs of that tbh. I mean, they all talk after a loss about how they weren't on their game but I thought they were right on it, Cas just upped theirs. Line speed and pivots are gonna make their game, Roberts, Brown and Clarke, if we can shut them down and complete sets, it might be close. Easier said than done..:/

Think goal kicking cost them against Cas? I know its not that simple but they missed 4 so weren't a million miles away. They were woeful at Magic Weekend though so do have a stinking performance in them.
We are one of the few clubs to beat the league leaders ,so can definitely dig deep and put another quality performance in to see off Warrington .Our forwards need to Get in their faces early doors and put them off their stride ,our backs are more than capable of getting the tries. Should be a cracker if we come out all guns blazing and give em it .

yep that's what I thought but at least its not just me seeing a chance, what about the bottom 4, Leeds could get quite easily pulled into a battle royal again
