Saints will win tonight and I've got a feeling they are going to go on a run which will take them close if not actually finish in the top 4.
Where is the evidence that we can beat any if the top sides on a regular basis to attain or get close to the top 4? Do you seriously think that SOL is going to play the majority of the matches for remainder of the season? Without him we are like sailors on shore leave with pockets full of money
Hey I hope your right Baz but my tenner tonight is on Saints.

Tenner lost.

My shoite betting tips continue after an awful Ascot.
Still £10 for a Saints loss is a small price to pay

Tautai out for another week and Joel out for 2. Clubb back this week and Gelling in with a shout but may need another week off.

Gelling just can't get going at all this season.

You are probably right in that there`s not much to fear about regarding Leeds and Saints.
But fancying your chances against Cas or Hull means you need to get there first mate.

I kind of think so too. I think of the current top 4, Salford are the most vulnerable, which basically means we want Cas, Leeds and Hull to keep beating our other competition for 4th spot. I'd fancy us in a semi final against Cas and a final against either of the others, if we can keep our top players injury free from now on.

Really? Call me a massive pessimist but we will need to go hell for leather over the next 10 league games (plus Cup semi and maybe final). Meanwhile Cas look like they will be able to start resting and rotating in league games almost as soon as the Super 8s start, plus they have two free weekends when the cup is on. I think if we scrape into 4th place it would take a massive effort from a likely knackered side to beat Cas, especially when they are fresh, at home (a big factor at the Jungle), and playing some very good rugby. Perhaps I'm just scarred from so many lost semi-finals over the last 15 years or so! Feeling much more positive about our Cup prospects

You're a massive pessimist! (Well you did ask)!

I've read lots of your posts.....you are a massive pessimist!

It will be difficult but it can be done but we will have to improve greatly on our mistakes and penalties.

Willie Isa and McIlorum are the biggest culprits.

WRT Cas getting to rest players over the last 4 more 5 games, could be a good thing for them if they get the balance right but they'll have to be careful they don't over-do it. You want to take momentum into the playoffs, mix and matching your lineup for several games wouldn't help that.

Farrell out for three weeks according to the Wigan Post. If it's three weeks from the Catalans game then he may make the semi but it looks touch and go.

It could be far worse though in truth. The way he twisted I had visions of a really serious injury.
