With only a few games left, how does everyone see our season going, looking at the fixtures I think we will finish 5th after round 23, the key thing is to be with a couple of points of 3rd/4th and possible 2nd if Wigan have a poor finish to the season.
Big advantage for us is having 5 home fixtures and only 2 away, I think we will win 5, Cas 5, Warrington 4, Wigan 4.
That would leave the table like this at the split
Wigan 32 Warrington 30 Cas 30 Hull 28
Lots of big games coming up starting tonight where we could do with a Wakey win, Warrington v's Cas is also an interesting one tomorrow (Not sure who would be better winning there)

Saints still have to play Leeds, Us, Wigan away and Wire at home so I'm not sure they are as safe as they'd like to think. They are the best team in the comp, but lose a couple and they're right back in the mix.

need cas to loose 2 or 3 games,what with them still having a game in hand over us,if we are to make the top 4.
born in airlie str,1939.german landmine that fell on boulevard,also blew up half of our house.thats why i dont like germans.not because they blew our house and boulevard up,but because the gerry pillock was aiming for craven park.
Big ask to win five with the current injury situation. Talanoa and Sneyd may not be back until the start of the Super 8s.
That said, as long as we are within four points of 4th I'd still fancy our chances of a play off spot. Obvioulsy this is dependant on getting our first choice XVII on the field.

When do the 8s start? Sneyd still in a brace and Talanoa in a pot..
The way Wigan are playing right now none of their upcoming games look likely to bring a win. They were totally dominated again last night and the 2 late tries made it look far closer than it actually was.
For now we just need to focus on a game at a time, but if we can win the next 3 we are right in the hunt for maybe even top 2, but definately top 4.

Out of the Cup and players back and fresh. Massive assault on Old Trafford. Just need to win a few games between now and end of regular season prior to Super 8’s
