Perhaps the perception of Fax as the weakest team is backed up by us Finishing fourth however, apart from Leigh we had the best end of season run of the top four, beating Fev away, London who were well placed then on neutral ground, Sheffield away And Dewsbury away, nine games undefeated.
As I have said if's and buts don't count, every team has them but if Richard had had more time at the beginning of the season we would have finished higher than fourth (in my very humble opinion)
As for not deserving SL if you don't beat us, its a mini league, take Wendy ball playoffs you can lose a game and still get promoted.
I think we will win on Sunday and I honestly don't think we will finish bottom, however just being in the mix is far more than I expected after the last three seasons.
There is no pressure on us, unlike all the other teams except Sheffield.
No disrespect intended towards the Eagles.
Let the games commence.'"
Personally I don't see you as the weakest in the league, due to the unbeaten run you've found yourself on. I would go as far as to say Wakefield are the weakest, just for the sheer losing mentality that seems to have surrounded the club over the last 5/6 months.
I'll be honest, your lot surprised me when you finished in the top 4. I'm sure I weren't the only only one who disregarded Halifax at the start of the season in favour of Featherstone or London finishing ahead of you. But the fact that you think you could have finished higher surely bodes well for the next 7 games in terms of confidence and for next season. I wouldn't be surprised to read soon that your lot are following in the footsteps of Sheffield and going full time.
I really hope you're wrong when you predict a Halifax win, as much as I'd love to see you do well, just not at the expense of us. You'll face poorer Super League teams, if you can still call Widnes, KR, Wakey and Salford Super League teams anymore, than Widnes in these 7 games. I wouldn't be surprised to see a few shocks coming from Halifax
