Well exactly. How harmful can it be to have gone in our best run for a decade rather than bumble about in mid table for the umpteenth year? Regardless of what comes next the first part of the year has been exceptional for many reasons. The quality of the players taking the field, the team spirit, the attacking cohesion, the go-forward of the pack. If for personal reasons folk choose to spend this time dwelling on doomsday scenarios that's up to them but personally I'm loving it. 6th was the target for me, we're in the 8 with 6 matches to spare. As was mentioned on the radio last night, all teams have a lot more bad times than good with just 2 trophies on offer. Not going to waste our moment in the sun by going inside and waiting for Ceefax to tell me it'll rain next week.
I think the OP is right though and think we will struggle to replace Mini and Ellis in particular like for like, so this is as good a chance as we'll have. Catalans, Wigan and Warrington will be in exactly the same mindset. Regardless, if it's not us I hope Catalans or Wire win it, would be great to have a new name on the trophy.
