So rhinoms do you still blindly believe we can finish above 4th just because we're leeds and it isn't a mathmatical impossibility?

Get realistic. We'll do well to get 4th.

Pah.....who wants to be Super League Champions? Winning the Challenge Cup is the main trophy!!!!!!

To be honest, 8th at the minute would be great!

As the table stands now (but with Leeds 8th and not 9th!!!!):

If Leeds finished 8th, we would play Hull away (beaten them twice in 2 weeks, so certainly no fears, all depends on form)

In the next round, we would then play Huddersfield away. Is it beyond the realms of possibility to beat them there, in playoff football?

We would then be potentially left with a qualifying semi final away at Wigan

To me, this is the whole problem with the top 8 system, and I said this last year (along with thousands of others I imagine) Teams are rewarded with mediocrity. Leeds have been pretty abysmal for most of the season, and were terrible in most parts tonight. Yet a win next week and we are a top 8 team. And if we stayed there, is the above path particularly daunting? Not one of those ties would have fans of either side sticking money on their team to win, that's for sure

We'll do well to make it to 6th.

And if we continue to handicap the side by playing Diskin, 8th may just prove a place too far!

If we finish below 4th I don't think we can realistically have expectations of making the grand final. Especially if we go far in the CC.

No arguments there. Maybe the CC is where our best hope is this season.

Mate, I'm 32, I have followed Leeds since 1987. I am possibly branded a pessimistic Leeds fan, I have seen so much sh*t over the last 20+ years. The last 6 years have brought me so much pleasure (as a Leeds fan!!!) that I thought I would never see, that I aint gonna get greedy. I actually wouldn't lose any sleep if Leeds missed out on the playoffs altogether. My point is.....that the format we have means that Leeds, even finishing eighth, would be one of the most feared sides in the playoffs. Would they be chosen by, lets say for example, Warrington, to play at home if they finished top?

I remember sitting in a bar in Spain in 2008 on holiday with a load of (very genuine, funny) Women St Helens fans. It was the night of the playoff game at Knowsley Road when they must have put 30+ points on us.

2 weeks later Kevin Sinfield was lifting the GF Trophy (again)

People need to remember what this sport is like!

If, If, what do you mean if? what have all you super confident Rhino's posters been smoking?, Remember, as the fans have said many times nothing is won in March...... or April by the looks of things!!!!

Come on the Blackpool may have a few quid on em at 1000-1

Only a couple of wins away from 5th No panic from me

Think it's great that there are more and more teams challenging the 4 with unpredictable results. Would be great to see a team win it won year and maybe finish 8 the next because of the strength of the competition

oooooooooooooh controvesy, GET IT LOCKED QUICK!!!!!!
Hope ya have a good lawyer if you refer to what I think you refer to?

Totally agree.
