Apologies to Halifax for your lack of wins. I'm not trying to be disrespectful. It just comes naturally.

| 8/10 pts we are playing for then, HKR will depend which team they put out and if they are missing the HB pairing and also if they are safe by then which is def possible, especially as they are then to play which they should win easily.
Long way to go yet, just need to keep winning and then we wont need to worry, same intensity again and we should be home and hosed, would be nice to be safe a week early

| With the way we lost to Wakee i think Salford came to Odsal thinking it would be a walkover and paid the price, however, now Widnes and HKR have seen the result they won't be playing us with the easy game attitude and it will be a lot harder for us to get the win.
That said with the confidence of this win and a big crowd at home we could upset the applecart ![ROCKS k020.gif](images/smilies//k020.gif)

Nope... Nothing has been mentioned with regards to injury or anything??

| I stand corrected. Could have sworn he was on last few minutes in rain but sporting life has him down as only doing the one stint in first half.

| Sporting Life manage the first subs but then run out of options for showing the subsequent ones. The very satisfying video on Bulls TV has him on the pitch at the end.
Good analysis VBFG. Confirms my pre super 8s analysis that 4 wins should get you into the £1m game, 5 wins get you promoted. There just ain't enough points for the probabilities to be any other way. indeed they called it super 8s because if you get 8 points you have a super chance of promotion. If you get it right on the day. Super.

| Plenty of other variables of course. By no means nailed on that Widnes beat Leigh, or even that Leigh don't go unbeaten from here on in. Either outcome shakes things up again.
Points difference might yet be the key from 3rd to 6th.

| I daren't even begin to try and predict what results will be in the final 4 games. I'm just praying we see performances closer to yesterday's than the one with served up versus Wakefield. If we manage that then we should have a fair chance of at least making the Million Pound Game. I don't expect it to be straightforward though and anticipate a few more shock results before the season ends.

| Can't help but feel that the cup final has come at the worst possible time for us, might be difficult to carry that momentum forward with such a long gap to our next match. The next 13 days will seem like an eternity!

| In terms of momentum, the week off doesn't help us, but we're unpredictable at the moment. I thought we'd push on after the Sheffield win and play with confidence at Wakefield. That didn't happen.
It does give us more time to get Mullaney and Gaskell fit once again, so that's a positive.

He come on at the final whistle but didn't come back on to play in the second half for sure.

| If Gaskell is fit I'd go with:
Clare
Caro
Neilsen
Purtell
Williams
Mullaney
Addy
Clough
O'Brien
Sidlow
Olbison
Ferguson
Pitts
Gaskell
Crossley
Lauaki
Blythe
I think the team who played at Salford have earned the right to go again. Ease Gaskell back in after what seemed like an unpleasant injury by giving him a bench place. It would be interesting to see what impact an energetic Gaskell can make coming off the bench against a tiring team.
