Obviously everyone is a little downhearted with our situation this weekend, but all is not lost. If I calculate correctly, we are still in the mix in 2023; IF
IF one of Warrington or rovers (preferably rovers
) lose all three remaining games.
IF Salford win a maximum of one further game (preferably the one against rovers
).
IF Leeds also win a maximum of one further game.
IF Huddersfield win a maximum of two further games (losing only to ourselves).
IF we win all three of our remaining fixtures (preferably by margins of 50pts + in each
)
IF each of those scenarios were to come to pass, then we would leapfrog four teams in a single bound, up to sixth and into the play-offs
After that, and with the momentum with us, winning two play-off games and a Grand Final should be a cake-walk. Followed next February by a World club-challenge victory over Penrith or Brisbane
And to think, some people on here are all doom & gloom (
) when there is still obviously all to play for
Yours sincerely
The eternal optimists everywhere
(or the severely deluded, the choice is yours
)
