Hulls win ratio is 5/12 = 41.6% Those in the play offs 8/11 = 72%
BUT...if Hull won their remaining games they would move to 65% - those in the top 4 would still need 5 more wins to achieve that.
So if Wigan / Wire Catalans etc were to lose 5/9 of their final games - which is perfectly feasible - They'd end up on 60%. Hull could, theoretically at least, still finish top!!!
Is there some magic formula or determination because of who plays who, or anyone who can explain this? As far as i see it, its now much more unlikely but Hull can still (without too much of a miracle), reach 4th!!

I think I've spotted the fundamental flaw in your argument.

Strangely, the same BBC that report on Castleford having “A huge dent” in their play off hopes, after being beaten by Huddersfield. Unless I’m missing something, Cas have the exact same win/loss ratio as FC.
