| Quote: Frosties. "Just to put it into perspective Widnes play Leigh in the next round, winner of that goes to six points, draw and both on five. Hull KR beat Featherstone, they are then 4/3 points clear of 4th. I'd fancy the chances of them gaining at least one point in their final three games and gaining automatic promotion. Especially since they go to Widnes in round 5.
Catalan desperately need the win v Fax and Featherstone otherwise they'll be pulled right in the dog fight, especially if London pull off a win v Warrington & then v Fax the week after.'"
London may beat Fax but, they wont get near Warrington.
As for Catalan, they are right in it and look like being the away team in the MPG, which will be extremely tough for them.
You'd like to think that a former national coach would be able to stir them into action but, there has been very little "bounce" since his appointment, they are in a perilous position right now. |

TBF I was of the opinion Fc pack would have the edge and the bigger backs going at Wigans right edge would see them home. Also thanks again to Mr Frosties I was wanting to look again at the next round of middle 8s fixtures.Hard to call finishing order.

Looking at the fixtures I think there is a chance that the difference between automatic promotion and MPG goes on points difference.
Rovers beat Warrington and Fev = 10 points
Catalans beat Rovers, Fev, Fax and Widnes = 10 points
Widnes beat Rovers, London and Leigh = 10 points
Leigh beat Fax and London = 8 points
That would put 2-4 place on 10 points.
Some massive games coming up.

Any combination of results can happen but I think we can get over Widnes and/or Catalans.Widnes have only 1 home game left.The Warrington away game hopefully will be between 2 safe teams.Minns Scruton Quinlan all ready to return.like was said earlier it is predictions and no team is safe or doomed yet.

Rovers beat Warrington and Fev
That would be fun, but I can't see it. More likely:
Rovers beat Fev - 8
Cats beat Fev Fax Rovers Widnes - 10
Widnes beat Rovers And London - 8
Leigh beat Fax, Widnes and London - 10
I think Cats still have their fate in their own hands just, because their 'easier' games are tail-ended. I can see the mpg being between Widnes and Rovers

Yes I am more leaning to this suggestion, I think that HKR haven't flattered to decieve, OK good on them they have got the victories but has anything been convincing, scraped home against 2 fellow Champ clubs and beat a totally pathetic Leigh team with no conviction or organisation, I to think they will finish on 8 points and play either Leigh or Widnes in the MPG whoever wins next weekend. Cats will come to, Wire are safe.

Rover said do enough to win games on the day. We'll finish on 10 points at a minimum. |

Confident of beating Widnes & Catalans at home, don't expect a victory at Warrington, as poor as they've been. |

I honestly believe that Widnes will be to fast for you to contain to keep their score lower than what you will achieve and I consider that we will see a resurgence
In Catalan, I agree with you though re Warrington, unless by that stage they have already achieved and over celebrated winning the mini comp. |

Does it have to be convincing? We beat a totally pathetic Leigh team with no conviction who then went to France and hammered a Catalan team that I'm ure would have been heavy favourites without the use of hindsight.
If we beat Fev (not a certainty) we will then have a run of 3 games to essentially just pick up a point. Even wire could be there for the taking as hopefully they'll be 6 from 6 by then and on the beach. |

Catalan have been stuffed by both Warrington and Leigh and just squeezed passed London. Widnes are very likely to beat them, we have a good chance and Fax might turn them over as well. Widnes looking OK at the mo and seem to have come good at the crucial time.
We haven't been convincing but 3 from 3. All to play for including Fax. Just hoping we can keep going.
