Over 20 games there's no doubting that Wire and Wigan have clearly been the stand-out sides, so Rogues's analysis looks right. Each team has succumbed to 'shock' results, however, and Hudds, Saints, Leeds, Cats are all capable of a big game on their day, so the path to glory is by no means clear.

So I have decided that I am going to be more positive - stop worrying about what others do and have 100% confidence in my team and coaches that they can find ways to win games.
Believe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'"
Glad you find it easy to do that mate!
I can't help but be negative in every game that we play, but that's because I am a negative person. At least it makes it more nice when we win. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

You should know by now that I ALWAYS call it as I see it. It normally gets me in "trouble" with fans of all clubs (including Wigan) so I'll take a bit of praise, thank you.

Huddersfield pretty much have to win next week for them to finish in the top 2 (And let's face it, the GF winner historically comes from a team finishing 1 or 2). Will this additional pressure help or hinder them?

Wigan should go top Wednesday , but there's been a fair few shocks so far this season and i think there will more to come before the end of the season.
Wire:
H Huddersfield
A Quins
H Wigan ( Cup )
H Bradford
H Wakefield
A Catalans
H Wigan
A Hull FC
Wigan:
H Castleford
A Quins
H Wakefield
A Wire ( Cup )
A Hull FC
H Salford
H Bradford
A Wire
H Crusaders
Tbh i can't see Wigan dropping too many points, possibly away to Hull and away to us. But we have Huddersfield, Catalans, Wigan, Hull.

Wire
To be honest i think the important thing in the top 8 format is to finish in the top 2, however the league leaders shield is just reward fopr the side who is mosts consistant throughout the season.

IMO the 'Make or Break' game is the cup game. The two free weekends that the loser will get will be invaluable come the last few games.

I think the CC will play a big part in who comes top of the league.
If you beat Wigan in the QF you are favourites to win the cup. That means you will have played two more games than Wigan and guess who you play the week after Wembley, yes Wigan. I can't see you beating them the week after a cup final when they have had a good rest up.
The opposite also applies, if Wigan win in the cup you are odds on for the league.

Not true. If Wire get to the CC final they will only have played one more game than Wigan, if Wigan get there they will have played three more games than Wire. |
