Sky, more like. Don't think the RFL has a say, does it?

I like the look of them . The first 2 games are crucial I think , first to get Of to a good start but also who were up against . Both pushing us for top 4 . Win them both and we'll be sitting comfortable with a bit of pressure of us .

Looking at the first round of the 8s could see the top 4 break away slightly

Cas beat saints
Leeds beat Wigan
Hudds beat wakey
We beat salford

A nice 3 point gap to fifth. Fingers crossed we don't fudge it up

The fixtures have come out well for us although it's vital we get off to a good start. Should we win on Saturday we don't want a repeat of last season when we lost the opening Super 8s game possibly still with our Cup heads on.

The Leeds away game five days after a Cup final and potentially three days after one of the clubs has a homecoming celebration is just typical RFL foolishness.

It will be a Sky decision, either the beaten finalist or CC winner vs the team they beat to get through. But it being the Thursday game is a bit odd!
