Couple of props have a biff. Get binned and still can get 2 matches. Rubbish. Bin.. done. Forgotten

That's the RFL for you easy money for them.

What is Simms meant to do, singleton starts throwing punches, does he just stand there and take it, runaway?

He shouldn't have even been sinbinned, never mind have a potential ban.

I don't see why it matters what 2nd-4th do for us to pull away from 5th? If we pull away from all of them, surely that's better?

If 2nd-5th keep losing, we'll pull just as much in front of 5th as we would if 2nd-4th kept winning.

better for 2nd, 3rd, 4th to keep losing, that puts pressure on them and loss of confidence, we've seen time and time again how losing a few games can have further ramifications. IF and that of course is a big if, we are well ahead in the race for the LL trophy come the 8s we could choose to rest a couple of players (more pro-actively than we have currently) alternating for a few games so all the big hitters are getting some game time off or at the very very least anyone with a hint of a knock gets rested properly.
If those big hitters are coming in to the back end of the season a bit fresher due to our better form earlier on and other teams losing ground and forced to play as many big names as possible to try make the 4 then that surely gives us an advantage come the play-offs.
All hypothetical but as I said i would prefer to see 2-4 losing ground on us than worrying about distancing 5th

I'm loving it

Backed Hull at 20/1 and 10/1 and 3/1 to win Hub Cap

Those nice people at Sports Bet are offering juicy cash outs at 7/1 on the 20/1 bet
Should I do a Leicester ?

A new verb - I Leicester'd my bet by cashing out early

Well done.
I just can't bring myself to bet on FC them playing has me on edge to have money on it would make me have a mental breakdown! :lol:

Obviously, if we keep winning it doesn't matter what everyone else does,
but if the top 4 keep winning then 5th and 6th will lose at least 2 or 3 more games, and then we are nearly in the semis before the last 7 games are played.
If 5th place gets closer, and we have a bad spell, the last 7 games could be very difficult.
Anyway, it's much easier to just wait and see.
