Quins have put some great away preformences up in the league this year so this first one will be far from easy.

If the players attitudes are right though we should win at least 2 of them. We're currently won 8 lost 10 and the aim before the end of the year has to be so we have won more then we've lost. If we can do that we'll finish in the players and in a decent position.

The Bradford game will be the toughest.

I think we will win the next 2, then narrow loss at Bradford.

I never feel confident at Odsal even though their side at the moment is as poor as it's been since the early 90's.

We never seem to preform that well at Bradford(apart from the last 20 minutes of the 2007 play off game of course ).

The main thing for me is getting back ahead of warrington.

I'll be honest, I hate some of their fans almost as much as I hate Stains. It's petty, but meh, it's true.

Wire have Celtic then Saints, so if we win our next two games we could go above them on PD. We will see

We need to win the next three, as for the following three take them as they come.

I believe that for a successful season there are only 2 must win games for us.

The CC semi and the CC final.

If I was Nobby, I would be using every game between now and the end of August as a dress rehearsal for those two games.

If a good run gives us a decent play off finish then that is purely a side effect.

Why give up on a competition that is only won later in the season.

Mainly becuase we are too far off anything to make a serious challenge. Secondly because there is not a chance in hell we can win enough games in a row to win it, ever if we do get all the way up to, say, 6th.

Win the next 3 games and we could be up in 5th or 6th or if results went completely our way then maybe a little higher I think. We can still make 5th or 6th and even 4th if we win enough games. If there is a team that can win it from outside the top 2 then it is us.

Who said I've given up.

I said there are only two must win games.

If, by concentrating the players efforts in preparation for the CC we happen to go on a good run, then that is a bonus.

Realistically, we are two inconsistent (particularly in the pack) to get high enough in the table to get a decent crack at the Grand Final. Although I would love to be proven wrong.

However, we have already shown against Saints that in a one off encounter we can match anybody if we are in the right frame of mind. Backs to the wall, Rourke's Drift type of attitude.

We have pretty much the same pack as the last 2 seasons so why can't we go on a run at the end of this year as well.

Run?

We won 2 of our last 5 in 2008.

This time last year we were 4th and we then lost our next 3 games!

Play-offs?

And this time last year we were 5th. We only jumped into 4th because Wire lost their last 2 games.
