With the top four pulling away and the mediocrity of the rest of the league I imagine to make sixth you may need to get to 26 points (13/27 wins) so we probably need to win at least five of the remaining eleven games. We can probably write off the games against Wigan, Huddersfield and Saints.
Next two are very important as Dave says but a big game is Toulouse away next month.

To me it just shows the mediocrity of the comp Mrs B, a dull Huddersfield side running rings round the entertainers, and grandads scoring hatricks, we’re all doomed I’ll tell ye.

Unless we bring someone in, I don't think there is any chance of winning 5.
I've just watched our next two opponents get beat by 28 points or so and I still think they will beat us.
Think Leeds is a must win game, confidence will be gone going into magic if we lose.

I don't find Huddersfield dull. Watson is doing a very good job this year, solid across the park with some X factor in Leutele, Pryce etc. They were without Fages and Hill as well, big players for them.

Think you are talking the mick, but Hudds are a very good side, said it after they beat us in the cup, very well coached, fit and have a really good mix of experienced players and young ones.
Score some very good trys, wouldn't supeise me to see them play Saints in the GF.

Perhaps it’s my crestfallen demeanour at present, inspiration has deserted me

It was for us, other way around, we wouldn't say that, if you want alotvof our wins in 2016 and 17, they were a bit dull, but no one cared as we won them.

I remember a challenge cup semi final against Wigan at Doncaster, it was an epic of endeavour and skill, it portrayed our game as it should be played, wonderful entertainment which sticks in the memory bank, dull never say I.
But this season one game I will remember is the Saints v Wigan cup semi it was magnificent, and I’m struggling to think of another game this season which I’ll recall in future.
