A brave call given Cas are currently 7 points adrift of the play offs and have lost more than they have won so far. Which of Wire/Catalans/Wigan are you predicting to drop out?

Any of the current top four could make it. Personally I'd like to see Warrington v Catalan.

If Leeds' post-CC form of recent seasons is owt to go by then it's far from impossible for one of those to be caught by an outsider. FWIW my tip for the GF is Wigan.

[quote="Eddie Hemmings said not ":1h9um51j] "Remember last time they were here, the Huddersfield Giants, they lost to a Luke Walsh drop goal. He's only scored four drop goals in his St Helens career has Luke Walsh and each and every one of them have been scored by Luke Walsh"[/quote:1h9um51j]:



I find it hard (though not impossible) to believe that any any team from outside the current top four can make a serious challenge, however it's difficult to forecast just what order the current top four are going to finish in. Assuming they don't finish 1st and 4th or 2nd and 3rd it'll be a Wire v wigan final for me, but if we meet in the semi final then the winner to play Hull at Old Trafford.

As a Hull fan, I've gone for Warrington and Wigan.

I'm still waiting for us to slip up... I hope I'm still waiting at 8.00pm on the night of the 8th October!

You share the same mentality I've had in seasons past. Sadly, at 8pm on the night of the GF you begin to change your attitude to "maybe.. just maybe.." and it all goes Pete Tong. icon_lol.gif

"The Golden Generation finally has its Golden Fleece! They have Wembley Cup Final winners medals to add to their collection." 23/08/2014:



I do wonder if Hull and Wire enter the Top 8's comfortably inside the top 4 if some of their fans will be asking for the points to be reset to zero like they were suggesting last year or won't they mind if 5th/6th place are about 6/8 points adrift?

Yes

Yes and Leeds will be in that after a very poor season. At least we aren't being hypocritical when the format works in our favour icon_smile.gif

Maybe you didn't personally but 99%.....a010.gif

Lots of complaining that the new system left you lot in 6th-8th places next to no chance of making the top 4.

Complete twaddle, care to produce some sort of evidence that ANY Hull fan or even Warrington fan said this?
Resetting the points may have being mentioned in a very typical humerous comment but in no way shape or form would that be serious, even the most idiotic fan can see that that would be unfair beyond any comprehension. a completely seperate mini league/play off with teams from two different leagues of course has to have the points re-set.
