We need Fev and Toulouse to win next week, the luck of a four leaf clover, and 4 snookers to have a chance of the Top 4.

Lets hope Rowley doesn't throw the Fev game to stitch you up.

Paul is a man of integrity. He has let IgNoble announce how they are to rig it.

Who knows, there may be some Canadians playing!

Toronto won't be playing the reserves as they don't have any! Pownall and Ngwati would be two of their weaker players and they are both on loan.

I am not worried about the team they play as even if they rotate two or three players, it won't affect the outcome of the game - as long as they don't subconsciously or deliberately take their foot off the gas. Will they? They won't want to give up their 100% home record or disappoint their paying public. Plus it would be very obvious to spot and why risk sanctions or even (more) bad publicity? And also, they would probably rather have us taking points of the SL teams in the 8's rather than Fev/Fax or London proving to be outclassed. They have beaten us three times this season, so they won't be worried about whether they can make it 4!

Nope, I think next week is the big one as far as we are concerned. The funny thing is that I honestly don't believe we deserve to be in the top 4 after the season we have had - fortunately RL never operates on what 'should' happen!

Totally agree with your last paragraph ML, but taking points off any of the the SL teams we would be expected to play I can't honestly see that happening, collectivley we are to slow over the ground with ball in hand, and to weak and disorganised in defence to trouble those teams that are playing at a faster pace and against better oposition each week, my opinion off course!

If we do make the top 4 - what's to fear:

Done Featherstone away
Done Toulouse away
Done Halifax home - thanx Snowy
Robbed at Blackpool
Done Salford ( superdooper team)
Done London 3 times

The team now, is not the team at the beginning.

What more do you want them to do?

Just need to get top 4

Then we will see if we are good enough or not.

Halifax stuffed us at the Shay. In fact, it was our heaviest defeat bar Leeds!

Apologies

Your right they did!

What I was getting at is we have beat all the top 4 sides and came close at Blackpool against Toronto and done Salford too
