Winnable, v winnable. Their 21 looks quite average.

Not sure you are allowing for the possible return of Meadows there Lefty!

This is certainly the most winnable of the games we have left. If we win it I can’t see Hull picking up points again.
Would be nice not to finish bottom.

We were certainly the worst team for the first 2/3 of the season but Hull have fallen to pieces now. If we’d won last week or the 1st game against Hull we’d be away and clear from them.

I agree that this is a winnable game. I had intended to go but with us flying out for the Catalan game on Wednesday, we have too much to do. We will have to watch it on TV.
Leeds did us a favour spanking Hull FC last night. The points difference is now only 43 and to be honest Hull FC looked dreadful, so we still have hope.

Huddersfield or South of France- I think you e made. Sensible choice.
I agree that Hull are really poor. Unless it’s total incompetence it must be yet another unintended consequence of IMG shenanigans. So that’s us, Hull and Castleford who haven’t really pulled up trees who have run sub par squads as a result of their decision. Once they’ve got shot of us they must be hoping that things will improve otherwise what’s actually happened is standards have dropped which won’t help in negotiations for any tv renewal deal.

I suppose it all depends on what the relegation criteria is. If just by playing in SL makes it easier to rack up ranking points & you know everyone else's score, where is the incentive to improve? You just need to ensure you score in the top 11 or risk being bottom depending on the scoring of Championship clubs.

I would love IMG/RFL to publish the ranking table based over the full term of SL. Be interesting to see where various teams were placed & far more representative than the last 3 years despite limited opportunities for promotion/relegation.

Opportunity lost. A collective losing of heads at crucial moments cost the Broncos. I appreciate that Natoli's ball carrying arm had clearly hit the floor and Rourke had planted the ball in the field of play but you cannot react like that and Huddersfield, who are poor themselves, made the most of the gifts handed out by the Broncos.

That was probably last chance saloon to get the chance to stick two fingers up to The RFL, Super League, IMG and Hull, as well.

That was an opportunity missed, however all is not lost. Our points difference has come down dramatically with Hull FC shipping points against Leeds.
We may avoid the wooden spoon by keeping points against down and hoping that Hull FC ship points. With less than fifty points difference we have a chance. I live in hope.

Spirit in your team is incredible despite the bear losses.
Hull F C on the other hand are diabolical.
All is notyet lost.
IMG and the RFL should hang their heads in shame.
Rugby League is not just about the top division.
You are only as strong as your weakest teams and to see Halifax and Whitehaven struggling financially when the areas have such strong amateur sides is criminal.
RFL in particular really need to be looking at a better way of funding the lower leagues.
Increasing super league to 14 teams and combining the championship and league one would be a good start.
Ensuring these teams get the opportunity to play super league teams via a cup competition is vital to providing the funds that the RFL clearly can't would be a financial lifeline.
Good luck in your next 2 games. It would be good to embarrass Hull FC, the RFL and IMG by London edging off that bottom rung before the season ends
