It's a bit early yet to forcast us fighting it out for the last 2 places, Leeds for example! not such a done deal they are only 1 point above us

What did they say?

Doubtless it sounded like "whooosh..."

Win this lot -->

Crusaders h
Wakey a
Quins a
Catalans h
Hull h
Hull KR h
Salford h
Salford a

Plus one from the other fixtures, and we break even and more likely than not make the eight. Removed Cas and Catalans away from my previous 'should wins'.

You are better than we are though ER.

Cas have a lot of points in the bank already and can cope with the odd loss. They will be fine.

Its a bit too early to be thinking of playoffs, for all we know, we could collapse and fail miserably or our halves end up being crippled and we struggle.

Last years collapse wasn't solely down to Orfords injury McNamara losing interest in the job was more the deciding factor.

I'd say it was a more to Orford's injury as up to that point he'd really been the major creative force in the side. Without him we struggled to produce anything, though I concede that McNamara getting the England job and having 1 eye on the door didn't help matters.

Sorry, it was just a prediction. And a wee discussion point.

Really???? You do realise that IF (yes we might not) but IF we beat Quins and Wakefield we will only need another 4 wins from 17 games to make the playoffs. That is one hell of a collapse! It would make Enron look like a few quid lost down the back of the sofa.
