Quote: Slugger McBatt "Any savouring depends entirely on where we finish. Those two doing so badly allows space in the top eight for others, and you never know, it could include us. If it does, I will love watching the middle eights.
If, however, we end up in the bottom four, there is no way I want the other Super League teams in it to include Huddersfield and Leeds, who are very good teams going through a crisis. Leeds have had bad starts before but come good at the end, and their side is packed full of very good players. Huddersfield cannot turn to dross overnight. I do think they have overachieved to an extent, but still a good side.
So I'll save my savouring until August, if you don't mind.'"
This my view too. Don't want the middle 8s to include teams like Leeds and Shudds. Hopefully by the end of the year we'll be joined by the same old faces.
