Way we started the season we was always going to struggle to make Top 4 I would of kept the core of last seasons team instead we got a complete new team and it was always going to be hard to gel so quickly but if we do make Top 4 and get promoted it will be better than the great escape

Quote: gunners guns13 " Acton at the moment,not only does he keep making a lot of mistakes he's for ever getting knocked backwards making no yards and getting head knocks so maybe a spell out of the team could help Acton to think about his game and give his head a rest from the knocks and a fresh Acton coming back in a few weeks could work wonders'"


Totally agree. He is not having the impact most people (Excluding yours truly) suggested he would in this division. He is struggling to get to the standard required IMHO.

That's why I take him out of the team for a couple of games and give him the kick up the backside he needs

Who would you replace him with? We have Bailey hopefully due back for Fax game, but then Baldwinson's loan spell is up, so may need to replace him (Plus, he's hardly set the world alight imo)

Agree, hasn’t brought any more to the team than the guys we have out on loan... Or Dez for that matter

Not feeling optimistic about top 4, have failed to be in the mix all year and up and coming suspensions could be a big blow. Do the team have the believe to win the next set of games.

Firstly listening to people who actually know something about the game rather than VH and PK who for some reason are constantly allowed to put inflammatory threads on here. The two best teams in the championship are Leigh and Toronto. Even the love of Peter Kay's life Rowley, said he would have been very satisfied with a draw given where Leigh had his team with 18 minutes to go. Short memories some of you - we beat London 3 times home and away. Our half backs have dominated all others they have played and save for the Leeds game our forwards have dominated - including the Salford pack. You seem to forget this is one of the youngest squads we have ever had and they are learning as they go - but have lots of skill and endeavour. I am not one of the Ryan Brierley haters, but WP deliberately tell the world how great he is. Now there is a player who simply cannot tackle and therefore has zero defence and never has the bottle to take the line on, he plays tick and pass. This team can and will IMO make the top 4.

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can. “Up The Comics !”:17580.jpg



Make no mistake, the task is difficult and made all the harder without the banned players
but
Let’s not forget, we have lost 1 game in the last 11 league games, to the top of the table, in the last minute after dominating the majority of the game.

2 points out of a playoff place with every team above us with hard games to come, with most having to play us.
I believe we will make the playoffs and be a tough team to beat from there onwards.

Just had a good look at remaining fixtures involving top 6 teams. Being realistic these are my finishing positions
Toronto
Toulouse
Featherstone
Halifax
-----------------
Leigh
London

If we beat Toronto then we squeeze in.

I'm sure if we win all our games except Toronto we make the top 4 because all the others around the top of the league play each other so there has to be dropped points from teams

I have taken this into consideration , but in my opinion this will be the result and I have us losing to Toronto in my equation. Have a look at all remaining fixtures and see what you come up with.

well fev have to go London,play Halifax so 1 of them teams have to drop points and go Toronto so that's 3 games they could easily lose,We beat Halifax then they have to play London fev and Toulouse so that's more dropped points for one of the top teams,fev play Halifax London and go Toronto so could easily lose them games....so I'm pretty sure we win all our games apart from Toronto were in the top 4..were 2 points behind London and fev, 3 points behind Halifax and 4 points behind Toulouse, so we win Halifax that puts us 1 point behind them,beat Toulouse and that puts us 2 points behind them.. so like I said these teams play each other and have to drop points so we win we make top 4

Unless of course, Toronto decide to 'ease up' in 'selected' games, once they have clinched the top spot!
