I know exactly what Donny hkr means, and sometimes would agree with him, but Sunday, I would quite happily take a 1-0 victory for the Dons (I know it probably won't happen like that), Skolars have an excellent home record this season, and whilst I feel we should respect that, at the same time, I hope we come out to show that we aren't top on the back of our fantastic home record, but that we can also do whats required away from home.
Lets hope its a good game, but hopefully, we can do it.

| I think the RFL would prefer Skolars to be promoted ahead of Oldham

indeed... the play-offs has nothing whatsoever to do with promotion this season.
It's time Geoff went to some games and caught up.

| Though I have great respect for Skolars' achievements this season, I would be very disappointed if we don't come away with the victory on Sunday. I tend to think that our only enemy will be complacency. I'm sure, with Paul Cooke's experience, that will be guarded against. If I'm honest, I would expect us to win by at least 10. Provided we keep our shape in defence and don't try to give the scoring pass to Lee Waterman in every attack, we will win

| I also hope we dont waste good chances with a view to getting Lee another try, whilst we had the game won against Wales, 2 potential tries went begging for that reason.
London are the most improved side this season, but we didn't bring in the likes of Cooke etc to not win,...with the amount of players we have signed on for next season, this team not only needs to beat London but a hell of lot more clubs next season who will be far better equipped.....
PS if Worky finish 3rd who do they play in play offs? As read in papers last week they did not want to play us at our place....
PPS where is the play off final held this season?

If Workington finish 3rd they'll play whomever finished 6th at home, then the winner of 4th v 5th at home, then the loser of 1st v 2nd Away (assuming they keep winning)
Warrington again IIRC

| Skolars have no doubt improved as the season has gone on. The key to Sunday's game for me is how well the Dons defend.
Skolars are able to score points and on bad days we can leak points. I'd hate to think it's going to be a 60 points to 50 game  as we score planty of points too.
Keeping Skolars to less than four tries should do the trick. If we let them over more than that it could well be a very tense afternoon for us all.
I'd back us to get at least 20, even with the pressure on. Three Skolars tries would keep them under 20. That should be good enough.
Good luck to all the lads. You deserve massive credit for the way you've played this season. Think about the defensive effort at Rochdale and a repeat of that will set us up nicely!
