Let's rest up and then have a real go.

We've got a good shot at the title.

the wigan CC SF proved we can beat anyone on the day, hopefully the rest will give the lads a chance to relax and get over any small knocks, would love to see the we boil if we win it from 5th again!

Depends who we have missing.

Myler; Briscoe/Briscoe Hurrell Sutcliffe Handley; Lui/McLelland Gale; Seumanufagai Leeming Prior; Martin Thompson; Smith. Dwyer Donaldson Oledzki Ferres/Sutcliffe/Harrison

Not to pour cold water but we are very long shots for the SL title on form. We can give it a crack without the pressure of expectation and see what happens, nothing to lose.

It's the right decision to go with this structure to end this crazy season.

Let's not all be on here saying how rubbish the club is if we get knocked out in the first round though; there are two or three better sides than us in the competition and we haven't been in form really since the Wigan CC semi final win. Hope the lads can pull it round and have a good go.

Its a tough ask going into the play offs with only two out and out props with SL experience.

Yes and we miss some x-factor with Newman missing too, at least going forward.

Like I said, we have nothing to lose having already over-achieved this season, we can give it a positive crack and try to cause the opposition some problems. We will need lots of our players bang on form to have a hope though.

Definitely, I think already having the cup means that these playoffs are just a bonus, hope we do make it through but cant take anything away from the lads if we dont, we've had success and been competitive this season and thats all we can ask for

I said that a few weeks back.
A CC trophy and 5th was beyond most peoples including my expectation at the start of this season.

Well said

Overachieved ! Definitely not ! Well deserved and hard fought! Every club that had the opportunity,and gave it their all. We are still a club moving on from an unprecedented era. But the players And club as a whole are showing we are moving In the right direction. Onwards and upwards, The future is looking promising.

Ignoring the fact that this whole season is a bit crazy anyway I'd say the season's already a success for us. After the last few years and the amount of rebuilding we're in the middle of I suspect if someone had offered us a cup win and a play off spot at the start we'd have been chuffed to bits. I think being able to go into these play-offs in that position is great - no pressure, the boys can just relax and play and if we can get some success all the better. If the season ended today I'd see it as a huge step in the right direction for us as a club so let's just hit the play-offs fresh and hard and see what happens.

Absolutely, everyone else had the same chance to win the Cup no easy lower league byes, only one winner and it was us no fluke we just played our best when it mattered, hopefully can find a second peak and make a real dint in the play offs.

We can win the title. We can match Catalans, then it's likely wigan or saints and it's a one off game, so anything can happen. Get a result there then it's likely wigan or saints in the final and it's a one off game, so anything can happen. Win that and we are champions.

I hope we do win it but I’m just saying I’m feeling pretty smug about this year regardless and it’s been a real step forward for us.

We need those next couple of signings to be good ones.
