Are you sure your not a pessimist ? Although I'm not getting carried away I think we should focus on our strengths and what we have achieved (the proofs in the pudding) rather than just second guessing every other team in the Comp will eventually come good and we'll fall back down.

I'm not second guessing myself tbf I'm sure leeds hudds and cats have enough for top eight,then wigan stains dire will be top four that leave us cas hull salfraud for the other two spots.....I'm sure 10 doesn't go into 8.

But what I'm saying is you've named all but 2 teams in the competition. Forget history and tradition. Things change, teams change. 20 points should see us there or there abouts in the top 8. We have 12 which leads us 8 points off. 4/5 wins. If we can't get those 4/5 wins in the remaining 16 games il leave Widnes and support Warrington.

This year there seem to be far more injuries at this time of the season than I've seen for a long time.
That is having an impact on how teams are playing.
Leeds / Saints / Hudds / Cas / Hull KR are all doing it tough. (5 out of 12 teams!).
Wigan are affected too but have real strength in depth and they have the personnel on the field and structures in place to beat anyone (in a 'stranglehold' fashion) if they play to their potential. Admirable in one way but boring in another. Interestingly there are some calling for Wanes head (and that of Radlinski and Smith).
Wire (we) have injury problems - Dodds, Wheeler and now Dwyer out, along with Westwood, Toby King, Laithwaite, Harrison and Bailey (8 out of 33!). But we do have strength in depth and so I can't complain - regardless of what happens next week.
We'll probably field the same team as against Cas with either Julien or Philbin coming in for Dwyer.

I actually think Widnes are playing the best rugby at the moment.
The defensive effort against Wigan was impressive, but more so the attitude that even when down heads didn't drop.
Brown was slightly nullified by Wigan but Hanbury stepped up, and the forwards played better than I've seen for a while.

I expect us to try to dominate in the pack next week giving Sandow and Gidley the go-forward to weave their magic.
It'll be interesting to see how we deal with Brown, Mellor and Hanbury.

How can we be the best we don't have Kieran Dixon in our team. Hope you stay in the bottom 4 & get relegated.

Actually Widnes did us a favour at your place. Gave us a kick up the ass to shake us into something. Never looked back since.
