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

Just in case the Leigh players don't know if they lose the MPG their contract with Leigh is null and void in other words they become unemployed at the final whistle what more motivation do they need to win that game.

It should be a massive motivation.

Problem is that Catalans or Widnes players would have exactly the same motivation as us - albeit for one of them it would be in funny Euro money!

Qick Question. Is the MPG a shared gate? And do the host club keep the commercial revenue streams ie Hospitality, catering, etc as opposed to the RFL hosting the game at the fourth placed teams ground awarding operating costs only.
