That's the logic of it.
We'll be underdogs to beat Les Cats in France and our league form will probably warrant somewhere between a 5th and 8th finish.
Did you expect better than that?

| our poor start to the year will be the reason we don't make the top 4, would like us to get 5th and still think that is a realistic target

Yet with the squad we have got it should be doable. Whether or not it does happen is down to the teams attitude.

| Top 4! 3 weeks ago I would have said we were nailed on and was confident of us going on a long winning run. After Friday I think 6th/7th is going to be a challenge. Our attitude was just way off and reality is we can't produce consistently. I thought Phil Clarke was bang on with jis comment on friday that after the catalan defeat we had to send a signal of intent on to the other top 4 sides by putting cas to the sword.....failed miserably!

Fine margins - Holdsworth brings his kicking boots or Tom Lineham doesn't have cramp when James Clare picks up that loose ball, and it is probably a different story.
Dobson misses his touchline conversion and we're nowhere near so happy today. Neither of us has that consistency, at the moment, that the top teams do. We can put a run of 3 or 4 good results together, but if we're 5 or 10% off our best we're vulnerable against anybody. Maybe we lack that 'extra gear', so we need to be at maximum intensity all the time and that is tough to maintain over 27 rounds.

I would even add if Westerman doesn't slip on his pass to Holdsworth that we would have been 6 points better off early 2nd half,

I was hoping for 5th and expecting no worse than 6th. 7th or 8th would be underachievement for me

I've said this for a long time. It's about attitude, culture and mentality. It's what sets the top teams apart

| Sunning myself in Bali but still checking in. I said way back that if we lost a CC quarter unluckily and won 1 play off game then I would be surprised if AP kept PG in a job. The next 2 home games are Massive but I have more faith in PG and I hope with all faithful hope that winning next 2 at home gives us form and you need form in Cup games. 9am here and 29c in the shade . Time for dip in pool
