With Hill playing Wigan next week, two wins would mathmatically make Wakefield finish in the top four.

As the man who has never seen an RL game in his life this may look stupid, but Wigan have a very difficult end to the season & will have to perform miracles to win the three matched that they would require. Away to Hull & Wakefield as well as home to Castleford.

Hull have a better program as Wigan & Wakefield are at home along with the visit to the Champions. St Helens can't be ruled out either as they have still to face the two team's that can't make the play off's.

That is one hell of a finish for all the clubs!

I almost wish I could travel from Ipswich to see these Wakefield games!

COME ON TRINITY. Please!

In any other year, maybe so - but Powell is an absolute shoe-in this year, and rightly so.

If the perfect storm happened we could actually still finish 8th, which just shows how tight it is. It would take Hudds beating Salford Sts and Leeds, Salford beating Leeds and Sts and Sts beating us and losing to the other two.....and Wigan would get 4th!

Equally and far more likely, if we beat Sts at home, we guarantee 5th and it's all in our hands.

As Hong Kong Phooey says Hull could do us a big favour by beating Hull which puts the pressure on them as they have Cas at home the week after.
It could all depend on how seriously Cas take that game. If we beat Sts and Wigan lose to Hull and Cas, it doesn't matter what happens in our games against Wigan or Hull.

I'm thinking Hull will take the games seriously as losing to us and Wigan could drop them to 5th.

All very exciting Wildthing

You're probably right there Bren but I dont think it is quite as clear cut.

Powell took over at Cas in 2013, and since then they have made steady progress, improving year on year. Up to that they were struggling, and had done for a few years.

Chris Chester has been here 18 months.

On top of this, they are also probably spending the full cap, unlike us.

Had we have been in a position to do so, where could we be now?

I totally agree - but from an optical point of view, it has to be Powell; there'd be outrage otherwise.

Chris Chester has however, without a doubt, done an amazing job - he appears quiet, understated and fairly laid back, but he has instilled something in this team that we haven't seen in a long time.

Not quite, if we did actually win the GF (I know I know) I think it would have to be Chester then.

It's given week before GF but if we got to GF we will have to beat Cas...

CC has done an incredible job this season with us and deserves all the plaudits! We're playing an excellent brand of rugby too which is down to the coaches...Powell is a certainty for coach of the year though...any other year and CC would have walked it...they are a good year or two ahead of us but when you compare to last season many people may forget they only finished a point in front of us at the regular season end...

To be in the position we are now is unreal...3 games to go sat 4th and needing two wins to secure a semi final spot, it's just crazy!

It's in our hands and many people have already decided we won't finish top four...why not though? We're playing well and as Chester said last night other than TJ we have a fully fit squad to choose from...very much different to this time last season...would love it to come down to the last game as a straight knockout against Wigan!

I stuck a tenner on us at 80-1 last week to win GF - looked today and we're 33-1

Absolutely. CC deserves it hands down for me. It would be wonderful if you could do us a favour and beat Wigan too! Should we beat St Helens then we are almost there in the 4

I really hope you win
