If you make 8th spot, you will play the team in 5th away at their place, so currently the Rhinos at Headingley, but it could be either Saints, Catalan or Hull FC away as the table stands!

If Saints win tonight I think they will secure a top three spot, if they lose 3, 4, 5, 6 spots are still open to change IMO.

Either way, a trip to the DW of HJ will be happily unattainable!!!

ahh ok - that does ring a bell.



makes more sense to be honest, and well worth having a go for given that we've taken catalan, leeds hull etc this year.



overall though, i'm not sure rugby league should be rewarding any clubs in the bottom half with a "playoff place".

Me neither, top five should go into the play offs for the title, however, a secondary end of season tournament (SL Plate?) for the teams finishing 6th to 10th ought to be introduced to keep the league alive for the rest of the competition.

Could come down to the 2 points we were robbed of by a Frenchman at Wire.

Look on the bright side ,Another pay day for the club

Unlikely to get the 8 imo.

3 wins would be a must, I think we can get 2, hkr game i'd say probably not and Sts almost definately not.

So I'd say no, 9th or 10th.

few weeks ago I wouldn't have thought we could of been in this position so lets look at realistically, Bradford play Kr as we have to face St Helens big ask I know but it has to be a must win for us and lets hope for a Bradford Win.



the next few games put up for the Bulls is Huddersfield, Hull and Catalan two tricky ones there





Kr would have Wigan and London after playing us



So three wins and Kr has to be a must, a St Helens loss and we would have to hope for other results



realistically we need the last four games so take Roby out of the game and we are giving our selves that chance

Everything hangs on the Saints game. It's almost a play off game for the play offs!

Agar needs to keep the fire stoked.

yep, we need to play everygame as a cup final from now on.



i take kellys eye's point about a minor pay day too, better in our coffers than elsewhere no matter how modest. incidently with the salary cap these days, do the players get winning/losing pay or is it fixed salaries with/without bonuses for cup/playoffs?

Seems like all we have to do is kick it up in the air for Meli he couldn't be bothad jumping last night !
