A win tomorrow will put us within 4 points of a top 5 play off spot. Is it achievable?

Yes. Which is ridiculous.

It would be very difficult because everyone will play almost everyone else. You'd expect the current top 5 to win at least half their remaining games meaning they'd end up with 28 or 30 points minimum. We'd have to win 7 or 8 out of 9 to catch them.

It’s a crazy season this year isn’t it?

Salford looked poor tonight, lose and remain on 18 points. That’s only 2 wins ahead of the chasing pack and suddenly you wonder if they are safe.

I don’t think we will make the 5 this year but we should start playing more like a top 5 side regardless to carry some hope and improvement into the off season.

On paper the squad is quite improved from this time last year.

We have now won 4 out of our last 6 games and more importantly started defending well.

If we can win 6 of our next 8 games I think it will be enough to make 5th place.

Playing Saints the week before the Cup Final could be handy if they rest several players.

A lot of incentive for the team.

Friday is a huge game, win that and we can start looking up at the Top 5

I think if we do make the top 5 there's a risk we think the current squad have gelled and the revamp stalls - I'd happily take 6th to 11th and a continuation of the exit of the dross.

What A load of rubbish,

It’s not mutually exclusive. If we do make the 5 I’d still like to think certain players cards are marked and we have a few more signings lined up. We’re clearly still some way behind the competition’s benchmark side.

Having said that, stranger things have happened and Saints aren’t invincible in a one-off game.

Still lots of hard work to do. Let's get next week out of the way. Win that and pressure will be much reduced

Already looking forward to it. So many ex Leeds connections there, they’ll bust a gut to stick it to us.

We need to play a bit smarter than tonight.

Are you now saying relegation isn't a threat??? Lol.

That Hull KR match will be a tough game.
We need to put a massive effort into it.
Looking at the fixtures we play Hull fc at home a week before their cup semi and presuming Saints beat fax we play Saints at home a week before the final.
I think the top 5 is probably unachievable but the fixtures are definitely in our favour now.
Our defense looks good, if we can improve our attack then we will give ourselves a chance.

There is almost nothing between the teams battling relegation and the teams fighting for a playoff spot this year.

A win against Hull kr on Friday will see us leave the relegation battle and join the race for the playoffs.

Let’s not get carried away here fellas, we’ve been shoite most of the season and are still far from out of the woods yet.

One thing at a time.
