Catalans

Rd24 V Hull (H) Win

Rd25 V Bulls (A) Win

Rd26 V Wakefield (H) Loss

Rd27 V Saints (A) Loss

Wires run in

Rd24 v Wigan loss

Rd25 V Wakefield Win

Rd26 V Rovers loss

Rd27 V Quins win

Quins run in

Rd24 Salford win

Rd25 Hull loss

Rd26 Cas loss

Rd27 Wire loss

Hulls run in

Rd24 Dragons loss

Rd25 Quins win

Rd26 Wigan Loss

Rd27 Bulls win

An expected win against Celtic and a win at Salford plus Quins capitulation against the Bulls has set this up nicely, the game V Hull is crucial, a win for the Dragons would just about kill the faint play off hopes of Hull, While Im hoping that Wigan will give Warrington some payback for the weekend. Cant see Quins slipping up against Salford though.

erm, you forgot Cas. If they beat Quins as you predict, and they beat Celtic (as they should do) you will have a hell of a job on to finish above them even if they lose to Leeds and Wigan

we dont need to finish above Cas, 8th would do me fine mate! I think as it stands and if the results happen for us we would be in 8th after that. (prvided our +/- is better than wire)

Feel free to correct me if I got it wrong though.

I think you've underestimated the main point, we may finish on the right league points for 8th, but our +/- is prohibitive.

I would rather see us miss the playoffs and play from our academy than manage playoff spot just to repeat this mediocrity next year.

Well, your entiltled to that opinion but It just feels like cutting the nose of to spite the face to me.

Even if we do make the playoffs it shouldnt detract from the fact we havent done as well as we would have liked. And similarly, if we dont make the playoffs I dont see wholesale changes being made.

Perry and Bird aren't the future. Should we "do our best" at the end of the season with a never-has-been and a will-soon-be-in-jail or should we lose a couple games with Bartheau or Guash having a shot? Who knows, we could be onto the next Kyle Eastmond.

Or they couldnt and playing superleague and not being up to it could destroy the young lads.

Your a complete fool if you think we should just give up on the play offs and blood youth when we are still in with a shout IMO.

If they are not up to it now we may as well find out sooner rather than later.
If that's your definition, yes I am a fool.

With 3 games to go we are suddenly looking like we could finish 5th, what a difference a week makes.
We definately need to win our next two games though (... what was that, "kiss of death" you say?)
