Take O loughlin out and they lose a hell of a lot,on form so far...Shaul is better than Tompkins but he has the big game experience

And Farrell, Clubb, McIlorum, Gelling and Crosby.

No need to rub it in

Widnes comeback against Whinos at present

Realistically only Saints could catch us for the top 4 at the end of the year.

If we can win the next two, we should go into the 8's with a 8 point lead, then we could rest players for the Salford game.

It would then take a massive disaster in the 8's to lose an 8 point lead.

That would mean only 80 mins away from two finals which would be an amazing achievement.

Hope Widnes make the 8 - they've achieved a lot with their squad. Said already that Cas look in trouble, which is disappointing given they're the best team in the comp to watch in attack on their day IMO. Salford hearing on Wednesday/Thursday is massive, and late timing is unfair on those chasing a place in the 8.

Middle 8s going to be fun. Squeaky bum time for many.

What chance Leeds v Hull KR going from Challenge Cup Final to the million pound game in a year?

I hope salford get their points back and cas end up in the middle 8's. Would be funny watching leeds, roves, cas and hudds fighting it out

apart from hull,yorkshire teams have been poor this year.good job we are flying the white rose flag.

Leigh looking very strong this year and will have learnt their lesson from last season's middle 8s. Even London are much improved and will be even more so with Soward. You wouldn't fancy travelling to either of those.
