Well we are in the top 8 in a very strange looking table. A win against KR next week would be some result now. God knows where we will finish so we may as well enjoy it while we can.


Engage Super League Table - April 13 2009
Pos Team P Pts
1 St Helens 9 16
2 Huddersfield Giants 9 14
3 Leeds Rhinos 9 12
4 Wakefield Wildcats 9 12
5 Castleford Tigers 9 12
6 Hull K R 9 11
7 Harlequins FC 8 10

11 Salford City Reds 9 6
12 Bradford Bulls 8 5
13 Warrington Wolves 9 4
14 Celtic Crusaders 8 0

Only Leeds and saints are better sides than us really. Wire on paper and hudds on form but apart from that its gonna be a good fight to see whobgets 3-10 this season

Had we played Bradford when we should have and when they were really down, we'd now probably be in third place.

As it is, they've picked up and so, incredibly, have Salford, so where will we be after the "Magic" weekend?

It's irrelevant I know, but here's the SL table based on Points Difference:

St Helens +119
Huddersfield +103
Leeds +81
Harlequins +68
Wakefield +51
Hull KR +41
Castleford +34
Hull FC +11
-------------------
Wigan -15
Bradford -44
Catalans -54
Celtic -123
Warrington -123
Salford -149

But a point worth noting...if our rearranged Bradford game were tomorrow (for example) and we won by 14 points, we'd be third.

Our next few games before that fixture could determine our position as contenders with that game being the 'momentum moment' to help us pushing on.

What I find interesting is that with a third of the season now completed there's now a four point gap between eighth and ninth - with Leeds now wobbling it just needs someone to knock Saints off their perch and we could be in for some very interesting times!

Closest opening to a season I can remember.
Maybe the cap is working.

Leeds losing 4 in a row in all comps helps.
