| Table
1. Dewsbury, 17, 31, Promoted
2. Hunslet, 16, 26, +258
3. Dons, 16, 24, +180
4. Oldham, 15, 21, +260
5. Workington, 16, 20, +135
6. N Wales, 17, 12, +41
7. Rochdale, 15, 10, -133
Fixtures
Hunslet London (H), Workington (A)
Dons Cornwall (H), Dewsbury (H)
Oldham Rochdale (A), Workington (H), Midlands (H)
Workington Oldham (A), Hunslet (H)
N Wales London (H)
Rochdale Oldham (H), London (H), Cornwall (H)
We can only catch Hunslet if they drop points - possibly by losing at Workington.
We must beat Cornwall and Dewsbury or else third is the best we can hope for.
If we win both our games, we'd then be level on points with Hunslet if they lost at Workington. Points difference would come into play. If Hunslet beat London convincingly, it would be hard to see Hunslet's present 78 point advantage being over-turned.
If we lose to Dewsbury, Oldham can catch us if they win their three remaining games.
Second place looks a step too far. It appears likely that we're going to be playing Oldham in the play-offs. That will be at home if we finish third and away if we finish fourth.
The winner of that match would then be away at Hunslet the following weekend.

If we beat Cornwall and Rochdale beat Oldham on Sunday, Oldham can't catch us for third place.

I'll settle for the first part of the equation working out.
I too can't see Rochdale beating Oldham... but we can live in hope! |

Nor Bet365 ...
Rochdale +8 10/11
Oldham -8 10/11

I must confess, I thought Rochdale might get a bigger start than 8. |

So if we can manage a win next week and secure the third spot its likely to be Oldham at Home, then Hunslet away and then hopefully a home final, which wouldn't be to bad having 2 home games.

That's about the size of it, Steve...
If we beat Dewsbury next Sunday and Hunslet lose at Workington, we need to overcome the present 60 points of points difference that are against us to finish second. Not likely, I know...
If we beat Dewsbury, we're assured of third.
If we lose to Dewsbury and Oldham win their last two games at home to Workington on Wednesday and at home to Midland next Sunday, we will finish fourth behind Oldham.
Team 2 gets a bye in the first round of play-offs. Team 3 is at home to Team 4 with the winner away to team 2 the following week. The winner of that match is at home in the play-off final.
