After reading Agar's comments on Ward its looking highly unlikely he will play.If we manage to win then I would think we wont see Ward playing until next season.

At this stage, if he's still not 100%, there seems little point in risking another set back unless we have to. If he can get into a full pre-season relatively injury-free it would do him the world of good for 2020. All we need to do is survive this year, whether that's one off bottom or five off bottom.

A must win game, both Warrington and Salford are fighting it out for a play off spot, we can’t afford to go into those fixtures with relegation as a threat.

If we win this “must win” game, does this mean we are spared another must win game until the first game of next season?

If we lose Sunday and beat Salford week after were safe arent we? So how the hell is Sunday "must win"???

People make drama and crisis out of nothing these days.

Just another league game with 2 points up for grabs same as any other. Neither team will be relegated Sunday.

If we lose to London and then to Salford THEN Warrington becomes a must win but even still that depends on how other results have gone. Bottom line is if we can take 2 points out of 6 then we are guaranteed safety. Even if we don't get another win we could still stay up but that would be proper squeaky bum stuff

When we have a bad loss since Agar came in we have started to win or lose give a better go of things .I expect them to play better albeit against the bottom club who are not Saints , but wether we win ? I just dont know .

To be 100% safe we need to win against London & one of either Salford or Warrington. London on Sunday is the most important game of the season so far.

A win we pick up the 2 points & stop a relegation rival from gaining any points this weekend, plus with our superior points difference we will be 90% safe barring a freakish set of results/score lines over the last 3 weekends.

Course it’s a must win. Beat London they cannot catch us, at best they could is equal us bit our points difference is insurmountable we would essentially we would have to lose both our last games by 60-70 points each and London would have to win both theirs by similar score line.
Just win this and even better hammer them. Jobs done.

No, Boxing Day is the next must win.

I agree.Hopefully we will win then Ward can get a full pre season in, strengthen the knee even more and then he will be ready for the first game.

Id say more than 90% safe if we win on Sunday and that's assuming the other teams below us all win. Bearing in mind both Wakefield and Hull KR have to pay London so there's at least 2 games there that one of our relegation rivals can't win - if you get what I mean

Oh and Id not play Ward this season, let hm get both his fitness and confidence back up to 100%
