| Probably winning just one of the last two will win it for us now.

it probably will if Hudds beat Leeds, but should we lose tonight and Cas turn us over next week then the unthinkable might happen....Hudds top, Saints 2nd...we go to Hudds or Saints

Even that ought not to faze us. Saints is so near it's virtually a home game, and at Huddersfield we could near enough outnumber their fans anyway.

| Leeds for me are still favourites for the GF.
They seem to be doing the same as what we did in our double season I.e we folded after the CC final and could have finished top (loss at home to Cas coincidently stopped us) but turned it on in knock out football.
Let's not forget that any of the top four teams only need to win two on the bounce to win the comp. Everyone of them can easily produce that level of form

He better hurry up and move, or he'll have no players left.

| My prediction is that Hudds will maintain their good form and beat Leeds. Wigan will beat Cas and Saints will beat Wire. So the semis will be Wigan v Leeds and Hudds v Saints. Wigan v Hudds final? On Super 8's form Hudds are the team to beat.

| The best scenario would be us and Leeds win and we play Saints at home. Anything else and I would struggle to have any confidence in our semi final.

| Just can't see Leeds winning at Huddersfield and maybe next Friday could be a game too far for Castleford. Although Wire had a good win today, a win at Saints does seem beyond them.
If Leeds lose and we win the the LLS shield is ours.

| Could have been chaos this next week if all 8 teams had been closer, as it is the Leeds v Huddersfield game should be a belter and wouldn't like to choose between them so it's either Leeds on 41 points or Huddersfield on 40,
The way Cas played last week I wonder why they aren't higher than they are and we could easily be out enthused by them so a loss to them would leave us on 39
The only game I would put money on is the Saints v Wire game and I know Wire put 48 past Catalans yesterday but it sounds like they just enjoyed themselves and had an end of era party - there was a great quote in the local paper from a Wire fan this week which said "Nice gesture of Tony Smith to shake the hands of all the players after the match, or is he saying hello as they are playing as though they have never seen a coach" . I expect Saints to walk away with that one and end up on 40 points so the bookies will be busy next weekend that's for sure.
If any of the games are drawn that will make it even closer so I'm glad I'm not a coach!

| And according to the Sky guys, they can't now finish higher than fourth.

| People talk about Saints hanging in games but opposition teams need to learn to kill them off by taking their opportunities. We had loads last week and Wire have had loads tonight and no amount of scrambling would have stopped them if both sides had been more clinical.
Walmsley back will make them a different proposition for sure but if he's not I expect any of the other three teams to make more chances then them but if they don't take them then Saints will hang in and pinch their semi.

| Walmsley won't improve Saints' left side defense. I don't care how good a halfback is defensively as long as they're not a turnstile. However, Walsh is the worst defender I've seen since Ben Walker.
It was a great game to watch, though.

| Yeah, an entertaining watch. Credit to Warrington for a determined effort.
Another very good finish from Swift tonight.
