Bradford lost to Rochdale definitely no easy teams this year. Except maybe us

I didn't mean this in a negative way. But the last few performances have been huge- the type of "one off" "cup final" style performances that take a lot out of you. To ask the players for more of the same, when they have already achieved their goal for the season, is a massive ask.

Personally I'm delighted that we have made the top 4, and getting hammered 7 weeks in a row is not going to take the shine off that one bit.

I agree with you GFB

As I see it (just my own view)

Warrington - no chance of winning
Catalans - can't see us winning this one
Leigh - hate to admit it but we will probably be 2nd best here too
Widnes - winnable if we give it our all
HKR - we've got better form than them at the moment so this is winnable
London - we really owe them a defeat, we can beat them
Fev - winnable

I'm not looking through rose tinted specs here, I am looking at how we played over the last month and how others have performed.

The one thing we have in our favour is that we have a winning mindset which others currently do not. A few games will be tough but still winnable.

Sorry Halifax 1989, whilst finishing in the top 4 is a good achievement in itself, the mentality of a job done will undo all the hard work HRLFC have done over the regular season. it does matter if Fax get hammered in the next 7 games, do you think RM will say to his guys " Hey boys not a problem getting stuffed, we made the top 4". This was a problem Clive Woodward had in the previous Union World Cup before England won the Webb Ellis Trophy, by saying "I can get you to the final" that they did then thought job over and got stuffed in the final. No I agree with Norman, Winning breeds winning, lets go out and enjoy but still with the aim to win. plus the higher up the 8 the more money, the better quality players that may be attracted to Fax.
One final thought, if D/R is to continue, be in there first and snap up one of the bigger clubs, with possibly better quality players to use.

I think injuries will come into it now. There's a lot of players who have been pushing through the pain barrier to get here; will they be able to keep that up for another 7 games now the target has been reached?
