I have been on about it since the injuries sustained in the Cas game and last weeks win over the hapless Rovers was a massive two points for me.
When really young or inexperienced players get a sustained run in a team they start well but often find it hard to sustain that level of performance but for the next 6 weeks that's all we have really. Although as a previous poster has pointed out you are counting on the bottom 4 winning just about all their games and they do play each other in the next seven matches, but it is certainly a distinct possibility and when Salford Widnes and Rovers arrive at the KCOM they will be really desperate for the points so the sooner we get another two or three ourselves the easier I will be. However going through the next 7 games without getting any at all has to be a possibility.
Do you really expect the bottom 4 who have won an average of 3/4 games out of 15/16 to suddenly win 5/7 get real your safe lets put this nonsense to bed

It only needs Huddersfield, salford and cats (with a game in hand) to win 4 games, and they'll all catch us up. And only 2 of them need to. So that's 2 teams out of 5, not 4 out of 4.
Leeds, cas and wakefield are already close enough to us (and have games in hand).
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?
Can’t believe the negativity on here , not sure if it’s to wind certain people up ! At the minute the table doesn’t look that bad, and surely with weeks passing by we’ll start getting bodies back . Even at the split , if we’re within touching distance of 4th and with a fully fit squad , I’d still fancy us to win get to the grand final / win it .

Even if just Kelly, Taylor and Faraimo are back we have a side capable of beating most teams. Hopefully Carlos and Talanoa will be ready to return by then too.
If we have a chance of dropping into the middle 8s then Leeds must be in serious trouble. Where is their next win coming from? Why is it just assumed that they will catch us when they have far bigger issues than we do?

Farimao Kelly Taylor Carlos at least , plus Leeds cas and Warrington will drop points too . If we are within 4/6 points of 4th with 7 games to play with a nearly fit squad I’d back us , as I think we have the best squad in the league!
This is why i’m glad we have so many home grown players in the squad. Alot more chance they will stick around to get us straight back up from the championship.

Your forgetting that we all have to play each other also what you have is a team sitting in 4th place and it's fans worrying about been in the bottom 4 with only 7 games left before the split do you really think you won't turn one of us , Widnes or Salford over at home come on it's getting embarrassing now

Of course it's a worry. Being in the Middle 8s is a nail in any club's genuine quality recruitment coffin and we are 10 players down (or something like that). Who would want to sleepwalk into a death match against hierarchy golden children Toronto or Toulouse? I think we all know how the 50/50 calls will go. Every SL club's number 1 goal is top 8. It is ours and we are not there yet.
