The League shows we have been the fourth best team during the season (though form has dipped from that run of 10 wins in 12, it is hopefully coming back gradually at the right time) and I'd say we have the fourth best chance of being champions. The teams above us have been better and we'll be underdogs against all, but in a one-off game you never know. We've got a couple rest weeks coming up while Hudds and Saints hopefully knock seven bells out of each other in their semi and one of them plays at Wembley. If our luck holds with injuries, it could be our year. I'd have smapped your hand off for 4th at the start of the year, but I'm getting greedy now. With a second chance in the play-offs, I'd make us 10 or 12-1 to win the GF.

A very difficult path to OT, especially for a team who has not beat a team higher than 7th in the league since Round 8
Aren't stats great? 7th at the start of their game with Rovers or 7th now? I can't be bothered to work out the first, so I'll assume the latter.
Only 6 teams are above 7th (obviously) and we are one of them. We haven't played Saints or Wakefield in that period, so we are down to 3 - Leeds, Hudds and Wigan. We beat Wigan in round 13, though they won't have been top 6 then. Quins were in round 10 though, weren't they? Also I've just noticed who the top 6 club we beat in round 8 was!
