Hudds should win the next 2,
If Wire beat Hull and Leeds beat Cats then its the loser of the Hull v Leeds match at home to us in the play offs.

TBF I'd rather play Leeds or Hull than Hudds.

As long as we get a home tie i will be happy. Hopefully against Hull.

To be fair last night's result confirmed that we will be going away in the first play-off game anyway, to you guys would be my bet.

Don't know, it now makes a play off game at the KC quite possible. Hudds should win the next 2, If Wire beat Hull and Leeds beat Cats then its the loser of the Hull v Leeds match at home to us in the play offs. TBF I'd rather play Leeds or Hull than Hudds.

If Rovers win their last 2 and Hull lose their last 2 then Rovers will play Hull at Craven Park.

Know this sounds stupid but didn't Maguire say he wanted the league shield the last home game of the season would Wigan not want to win it were all they're home fans are rather than at our ground, i mean 1st place is sorted its the rest up to 7th that's hotting up i can honestly see Hull ending up 7th now...

Hull have Warrington who are pretty much certain to be resting players ahead of the CC final, then Leeds who'll be knackered after it. 5th at worst for them and probably 4th. IMO. If Wire's fringe players, hoping to earn a place at Wembley, pull off a shock it puts them under pressure, but for them to fall as far as 7th every result needs to go against them - including us beating Wigan. If Wigan beat us they can be presented with the plate before the final game (or after it if they view it as a distraction), in front of their fans.

You think Tony smith will rest some of his players, and yeah can see leeds been knackered but they want 4th spot, so looks likely we will get Giants OH God...............

The good or bad thing about it is that every game for the top 7 really has something to play for. there are so many permutations that it makes any tactical play for results impossible. As long as we get a home tie i will be happy. Hopefully against Hull.

As much as I'd like to think we will I really cant see us getting anything from Wigan. If they'd won yesterday then it may have been more likely but I'm resigned to 7th and an away tie at Leeds, Hull or Hudds. Fc would be the showcase fixture but TBH I'd rather anybody than Hudds.
