They can chose any of the 3 as far as I'm aware. |

| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"
Aren't stats great? 7th at the start of their game with Rovers or 7th now? I can't be bothered to work out the first, so I'll assume the latter.
Only 6 teams are above 7th (obviously) and we are one of them. We haven't played Saints or Wakefield in that period, so we are down to 3 - Leeds, Hudds and Wigan. We beat Wigan in round 13, though they won't have been top 6 then. Quins were in round 10 though, weren't they? Also I've just noticed who the top 6 club we beat in round 8 was!

Took some working out lol but yer Stats can be very misleading |

I don't think that's right Karl as Leeds would be entitled to home advantage?

Maybe, but we historically do better against saints than hudds do. Maybe our game doesn't suit saints an they would feel more confident of breaking down a structured hudds side, or psychogically they may fancy having an early crack at Leeds... Whoever they pick it will just serve to motivate the oppo... |

I think the fact we've got the CC semi & final weeks off will give the players the rest they need and if you look at our form after 13 games (having played everyone whether home and away) we were a Jake Webster finger tip from being the top of the table which proves we are a top side providing our 80 min players i.e. Galea & Newton are not burnt out.
Leeds & Saints form isn't starling at present and if we can reproduce our early to mis-season form then we can definitely win the title.

| Quote Alphabetti Spaghetti Go!="Alphabetti Spaghetti Go!"Slightly o/t, but if you were Saints coach and it got to a choice of Leeds, Hudds or Rovers at home, would you be tempted to try and take Leeds just to avoid losing at OT for a 3rd year on the trot?
Sure, it's a high risk gamble, but better to face them on your own park than in the final?'"
On a similar not, assuming Rovers finish 4th, who would we want to top the table and therefore play us in the first round? |

Wikipedia agrees with you - fwiw!

If Saints and Leeds lost in round one, but then won the next week, the choice of SF opponents would pass to Hudds, rather than going on League position. I think.
Edit: Also Rovers and Hudds would be at home. |

If all teams were at full strength I would say we are not good enough to go all the way, But Saints are hitting a wall at the moment, Leeds are looking a bit weary although they like Rovers will have the semi & final weekends off. The Giants for me are the team who will have the best chance of winning from outside the top two they have shown they can mix it with everybody & had the game plan to Handle Rovers twice, Its just a question if they can hold there form together in the cup & league & stay free from Injuries. Rovers can beat anyone on the day but like all the others they must have luck with injuries.if the others can not hold their form then anything is possible. At least there are new names in the mix.For me I would like to see a Warrington v Huddersfield cup final, & Rovers/Giants/Wigan grand final, but I suspect Leeds or Saints will have something to say about it. It makes a change from past seasons though.
