You have to aim higher than 8th and try and keep in touch with the top 4, otherwise you are left with potentionally 7 meaningless games after the split.

4 points off top 4 with a game in hand. Leeds Cas and hull having lots of injuries. String a few wins and top 4 isn’t so far away.....

If we can put a few "W's" together then many things are possible and you're right about Leeds, Cas and Hull.
One game at a time is our best mantra. Although, if we winn our next 3 games, confidence will be sky high

How the hell is 7th meaningless, difficult but meaningless! give it a rest.

I will take 7 meaningless games if it means we are not in the relegation dog fight,,, I think toronro,london and Toulouse are going to take some beating this year......maybe 2/3 super league teams down.....

To be honest I wouldn't be surprised knowing Wakey if we won the next two games.

We have beaten Wigan well the last two seasons and they will be coming off the back of a tough cup game. We are also capable of beating Wire. These are the games we need to win to clinch the top eight then push on for the top four.

Couldn't agree more, after those two we have Widnes at home as well, that's three very winnable games and it's not unreasonable to believe it's achievable hopefully, if's and but's I know but if we do then a top eight place more or less guaranteed with five games left.

Hudds will win there next 4 fixtures.

I cant really see any of the current bottom 4 getting into the 8 but maybe that`s just wishful thinking. Should Salford or Catalan pick up any sort of form we could be in the dog fight.

It's fair to say that Catalan have picked up some form. 3 wins from their last 4 is good going and the defeat that they had was away at Saints.
The coach that everyone loves to hate does seemed to have turned them around and I dont see them being in the bottom 4 after the split and our dire performances against Shudds seem to have given them a lift.
It could all get extremely tight at the bottom of the table and there will be twists and turns a plenty before the Super 8's.

No I don’t agree actually, Catalin have cobbled a few wins together against generally poor opposition. They might pull out of the bottom four who knows but to suggest they have found anything resembling real form is a bit rich imo.

Mostly agree with that. They are definitely playing better than they were earlier in the season, but they have just beaten the two worst teams in the league on form. They also beat us a few weeks ago but we were really off colour that night. They do however have a run of fixtures that they will fancy themselves in now though. So it will be interesting to see how they get on.

I don't expect them to cause any issues for you guys though. Expect you will be safely in the 8. Probably 6th unless Leeds can find some answers pretty fast, they have been beyond terrible the last couple of weeks.

Time will tell but, right now, they have the best form in the bottom half of the Table.
Beating Leeds and Hull FC at home, Salford away and getting close to Saints, no matter how injury ravaged any of those sides may be, is form that we would be delighted to have.
Of course, given their absolutely abysmal start to the season, they are still going to be a bit scratchy but since the addition of Drinkwater, they look like they will definitely avoid the bottom 4, something that looked impossible a few weeks ago.
