IMO they have a excellent chance of making it after giving it to Hull . :shock:

1 point or not a win is a win. So Congrats.


What's there secret this year ? in recent years they were struggling, not anymore It seems . Oh that's right, they probably signed some Manly players no wonder why they're going so well. :wink:

top 4... not a chance in hell, were still too inconsistant with our disipline and still are making stupid mistakes in defence... BUT this season unlike last season Sherwin, Chase etc are playing behind behind a pack who aren't being beaten and are given the oppertunity to play an expansive flowing game which are catching teams out, plus we are twice as fast as we have been in a long long time, it's looking good being a Tiger this season, at the beginning i'd have been happy with a top 10 finish, after watching some of the Rugby we have played i'd be happy and expect us to finish top 8.

:)

Chance? Probably about 4 in 14. Can't see it although things are exciting this year.

Secret? A good mix of quality youngsters coming through, decent buys from elsewhere in the league and some good uns from abroad. Personally I put almost everything down to Mitchell Sargant, who has been awesome.

Mitchell Sargant was out on his feet the last 20 minutes yesterday he was bolloxed, but even that didn't stop him, he made at least 5 tackles i can think of that were quite simply unbelievable, one of our best signings.

Not sure about them finishing that high over a long campaign but they look prime candidates for a cup run and with a bit of luck a day out at Wembley.

I love the way people have simply seen the scoreline and simply presumed it was a top4 game. Both sides made many errors and a better side would have capitalised very early on.

Cas are a good side who are very fast, but based on seeing them last night and on tv last week I think talk of top4 is very premature, they could end up as high as 6th though IMO

We've less chance than Leeds & Saints, about the same chance as Catalans & Hudds and more chance than Celtic & Wire IMO of course.

Top 8 will do me, let's walk before we can run.

What an odd post.

In answer to such a daft question - it's possible but not based on beating Hull away or form up to date. SL has levelled out a lot and with P&R removed teams can express themselves more.

The key for Cas will be injuries, remain injury free then they will be in with a shout, pick up injuries or lose form then no. However this applies to every team in SL bar Celtic and Salford, why single out any one team - utterly bizzare.

at the start of the season i would have settled for one place better than last season. we are going well, but it is early days yet. we have improved considerably on last season so i am happy already, anything else will be a bonus :D and i hope a good cup run and a day out at wembley is on the cards, i have always said i wont go to wembley until cas get there :lol: :lol:

You've a similar chance as Wakefield and Hudds bit better than Catalan and Quins.
