Is Hudds next friday a defining game of our season? With Wigan most likely being top before we play next, I think if we were to lose then it would probably be the end of our challenge for number 1 spot. I can't see them slipping up apart from possibly against us.

No. Plenty of banana skins left for everyone. Wigan had one last night, and but for 3 officials who can't see rugby balls going forward from passes, they wouldn't have won last night.
The race for the hub-cap should go down to the final day

I think since they moved TL to hooker and Brett Finch has found form that they're really going to kick on. I know we're devastating in attack and defence but I still see us with a slightly harder run in.

Think the defining game will be Wigan @ home in the league. Whoever wins that will get the hub cap

Every game from now on is the defining game. Had we lost last night (which we were never in danger of doing) then the pressure would have been right on. The fact is that if we win the rest of our matches, then we will be top, end of story.

100%

Wigan have the easier run for me and the only team i can see turning them over is us, we as well as having Wigan have Hudds who have beat us in the last 3 game home/away/neutral, Catalan who beat us earlier in the season at home and who turned Wigan over twice and Hull FC who again turned us over at home. I think the defining game could well be Salford at home should we lose any of the above.

Not really Yed. cause at the moment we're still in control of our own destiny. We lose friday, we hand all the momentum to Wigan.

I keep waiting for our bubble to burst but we have gone into a number of must win games this season and strolled through them - saints twice, Leeds twice, Wigan away, Cas twice

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TS as already said the next game is the most important game,and that is all it as to be, go into every game knowing we can win it.

Whoever wins the quarter final CC Cup game at the HJ will win the Cup, the team that loses will win the league leaders shield.

Been saying that for a while.

Be difficult Friday without Briers, playing a side that generally is pretty well drilled defensively, We'll have to be patient and not look to force too many passes otherwise we'll fall into that trap of trying miracle balls and feeding Cudjoe etc.

Was it Hudds away that Bridge played at halfback with Myler and we looked a bit clueless, as did the whole team I might add.

I still think we'll win, but it's been made tougher.

On a tangent but is Gaz O'B out for the whole season?

Agree mate
