I think the best we can hope for from that list is 5 wins - all our home games. I think even that may be a struggle given our current injury list.
We will need other results to go our way, and even then I think we will be lucky to get 8th spot. I think we will end up finishing 9th, quite possibly because of our poor points difference.

Think the fact that your injuries are stopping you from rotating your forwards will probably be a big stumbling block. If we beat Leeds next week we will then be in the mix and then our game against you will be quite a big game.

I thought Leeds would be ok, but given some of the backing up their players need to do they could come unstuck quite easily. They're not in great form as it is and they may still lose games they would normally expect to win.

Then backing up here:

Wednesday, 4 July 2012
International Match

Than backing up again:

Friday, 6 July 2012
Leeds v Hull, 20:00

I know this isn't technically backing up, but cup semi's are generally pretty draining, plus we'll have had an extra week to prepare. Leeds season may well rest on the cup so expect a massive effort against Wigan.

Looking at the other games Leeds have, there are a few recongised tough games (Catalan and Hudders away), but the rest you would expect the Leeds of old to win. As stated though, they are not in the best of form and any further injuries could disrupt them even further. Leeds games away against Wakey and Hull KR could define our season and theirs.........

I don't know who KR play but we really need to beat Hull Kingston at home, and picking 2 up away at Leeds would be a Brucie. 5 wins should see us there or there abouts, 6 and we'd make it. Lets hope we get some numbers back for the Leeds game. I'd be tempted to manage the squad Vs Wigan, resting those that need resting.

Hull KR :

Probable defeats Saints (a) Wigan (h) Catalan (h)

Possible wins vs Salford (h), Widnes (a) Leeds (h) Wakey (h) London (a)

Unknown derby result Hull (h)

Plus away against us.

Another win for KR at Hudds last night. All the results just seem to go against us.
Mind you, at this rate, we could end up overtaking Huddersfield.
