We have the ability to beat either Fev or Widnes, but have sadly found ways to lose to both. Gaskell definitely lacked something against Fax and I'd like to see sammut given a run out today.

Going off on a slight tangent, I'm struggling to find much information about the new playoff structure. It appears the final winners get 0.25 IMG points, but do the runners up or even semi finalists get anything? There's also mention of increased prize money for winning, but no figures given and again what about the losers etc? Whatever the increase in prize money it hardly competes with a years worth of SL tv money. Is anyone out there in the know about this stuff?

Taking Wakefiled out of it, what a compelling race it's been for the other 5 play-off spots.

The play-off's themselves will be interesting, the results for the first two games are really difficult to call, they could both genuinely go either way!

We should've beaten Fev earlier this season. A chance for redemption.

I can't help but feel its history repeating itself with him. Downed tools last time around when he knew he wasn't staying, and I know there was also a lot of other stuff going on too, but he has done it wherever he has been and I guess he doesn't want to start off at his new club with another injury.

I know Swinton weren't very good but we looked a lot slicker without Gaskell. Not sure I'd pick him for the Fev match.

That was exactly my thinking too
Huddersfield fans said similar when he was leaving.
After yesterday we can't really drop Sammut for Fev this week.
