I believe Leeds will turn it around and win their last 3 games....If I am right, then after this weekend, then Leeds will be 1 point behind you with Salford and Widnes to play....and as the OP suggests, your tie with Hudds becomes key....
Quote: homme vaste "Also Catalan have to play Wire, Wigan and Salford - I can only really see 1 win out of 3 there.'"
as I said in my OP....
Quote: homme vaste "Catalan have Wire and Wigan away and Salford at home, so 20 points...'"
...Given Catalan are currently on 18 points it would seem that we agree that they will only get 1 more win.......but it will be enough. |

I believe your train of thought might be slightly different come 10PM Friday  |

Given I am neither a Fan of Leeds nor Wakefield, the result on Friday means little to me. That said, I see that the only voices of dissent here are from Wakefield fans.....interesting but fully expected

And why would there be dissenting voices from elsewhere.
You appear to have deliberately put Trinity in the frame to provoke a reaction and you've achieved your aim.
Haven'y you got a game of Union to watch or, are we in the close season ??

I don't see anything wrong with what Call Me God has said. Our record at Leeds is not good not matter the form, our record against Hull at home is iffy as is Hudds away. That lacklustre performance on Saturday has left us sweating and I don't think there has been anything more infuriating than Chester picking Liam Finn who is nearing his sell by date if not has passed it:

Is English not your first language.....? There are two teams named in the thread title, but only side's fans have reacted....

Oooh...the "union troll" hunters are out in force. When all else fails and you have no argument, call someone a union troll and hope that other idiots jump in 
Wakefield fans....not all, but a few on here have bigged themselves up all year with threads like " now we're not a crap side".....the reality is you're in the frame to avoid getting dragged into relegation....and that's no reason for celebration, but an indication of how far our sport has fallen as being relevant....
...and I repeat...Lose to Leeds and you'll be looking for seat deals on AirTRANSAT  |

Saints v Catalans is looking like a mouthwatering Challenge Cup semi final clash. Some bookies still have Catalans at 14/1 quite unbelievable to say they are in the semifinal and have the 2nd best form in Super League.

Is that 14-1 to win the challenge cup if so that’s a ridiculous price with only four teams left |

Cats are 11/4 on Skybet which feels realistic. Where are they at 14/1? That's a seriously good "value" bet!

The 14/1 price that I took recently was to win the Cup, 11/4 must be to beat Saints in the semi.
18/1 is incredible for the the team with the 2nd best form in Super League.

| Well well well.......2 unexpected results tonight make Wakey/Leeds the "end game" for both sides.....Wakey win, they are in the top 8.......but should the Rhinos get the points, then it is going to be twitchy bum time for Wakefield given Leeds finish off with Salford and Widnes....
CATALAN 19 POINTS (-72)....Salford at Home and Wigan away =21 points
HUDDERSFIELD 19 POINTS (-22icon_cool.gif Castleford away and Wakefield at Home = 21 points
WAKEFIELD 18 POINTS (+25) Leeds away, FC at home and Huddersfield away = 18 points
LEEDS 15 POINTS (-104) Wakefield at Home, Widnes at Home and Salford Away =21 points
There's more excitement at the foot of the table and the top of the second tier than at the top of SL.......so let's change the format again |

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
