Is there still a possibility of finishing top.

Salford normally play well against Leeds and if Senior, JJB and Sinfield are missing there is a possibilty of Salford causing an upset finishing on a high by beating Leeds by 20+ points.
Saints could hit form next week and quite easy put 50+ points on the Catalans.
Its highly unlikely but still a possibilty...so its not over yet.

But does it really matter for the bragging rights, who would you really want to play against Hull KR or Huddersfield, for me there,s not much difference in the opposition.

Huddersfield. That CC Final could well have knocked the wheels off.

The fat lady has sung soft lad

Above anything else, leeds not winning the sheild would be hilarious!

Not bothered about top spot, let Leeds have it and the pressure that comes with it. The Grand Final is the focus now.

I'm a little sad we won't have a hubcap for the spare but you're right about the Grand Final being the focus. It has to be.

However. There is this little piece of me that would love us to sneak top spot by just one point - that would be the best - even though I know it's probably asking for the impossible. It would just be lovely to sneak it in spite of everything!

bar the shouting

Does Judder Man believe in Father Xmas !!

On current form saints should be happy they are in the play offs !!

You're right, we've just scraped in the 8.

It's not over, but it'll be a bloody miracle.

However, last night will serve to fire the belly of the players and right some wrongs.

The added pressure of first place is off us too. We know we can beat Leeds, we've done it twice, last night, things just didn't quite fall into place, a new formation and the like. Same side against Catalans and good chance to give it a run around, and I expect a good tussle through the play offs.

We only have a week to see who ends up Top of The Super League, if we are realistic that it will be Leeds! and it is good to see other than one club winning all the time (we got sick of that with Wigan) it does no good for the name of the game.

Funny how it is not important now being top of the league, in past seasons there have been a lot of complaints that the real winner is the League Leader and not the play-off and that there should be more recognition and a better trophy, how fickle some can be!
