As of right now there are still 8 different options for us

Automatic relegation

Automatic promotion

Home or away to Catalan , Widnes or London in the MPG

This afternoon will reduce those options with the 2 Automatic options being decided one way or another

Scary Innit

A win for London today would make it very interesting next weekend, Leigh beat london and Widnes beat Catalans all 3 would be on 8 points

Exciting isn't it? Like a game of russian roulette, who do you guys cheer for today? A win for London and you have a chance to stay up automatically but also brings automatic relegation in to the equation.

Isn't it just Greg

Have you enjoyed this years qualifiers ? , your lads never gave up last night , although I wished they had , we could have done with another couple of try's

I want London to win today, but would make it a lot harder for us next Friday

We have to wish for a Widnes win today to guarantee a place in the MPG.

we have to win next week just to get into the MPG, a win For London today and if we win next week could see us in super league without the MPG providing Widnes beat Catalans and the points differences are greater for us

Not if Widnes win today.

Current points differences:-

Catalans -11 (8 points)
Widnes +68 (6 points)
Leigh + 62 (6 points)
London +13 (3 points)

Catalans could be very vulnerable, despite being on 8 points. I'd still rather play Catalans than Widnes though!

What will be will be

It's going to come down to 80 mins of rugby to decide our fate so we can't say it's in our own hands I would fancy Catalan but think Widnes might be to strong for us they seem to have that edge on us for some reason as they not really breaking any Potts

So the MPG it is , lose to London we play away , beat London by less than 26 and we might be away to Widnes or home to Cats , beat London by 26 and we're at home

Bring it on

So, if we do play Catalans at home in the MPG, it may be an opportunity for Derek to open the doors for free again. IMHO it would be a stroke of genius. A 12000 crowd shouting on the lads would get us across the line. A game at home to Catalans, live on sky with all to pay will struggle to match the crowd we had last night against Fax. The atmosphere was really flat last night with 60 away fans. There was an apathy among the home fans in the north stand last night that has been creeping in over the past couple of months.

I remember the excitement and buzz around in the build up to the Batley game last season due to Derek opening the doors for free. We would need to recreate that if we want to win the MPG.

So the 8 now become 4 , pity we couldn't have got another couple of try's last night , but we know what we need to do , a home match would be crucial IMO
