Win this lot -->

Crusaders h
Wakey a
Quins a
Catalans h
Hull h
Hull KR h
Salford h
Salford a

Plus one from the other fixtures, and we break even and more likely than not make the eight. Removed Cas and Catalans away from my previous 'should wins'.

Loving the positivity about Leeds ME! How many points in front of Bradford are we? Hardly the basis for being certs and you not.

You are better than we are though ER.

So lots of people tipping cas to fail due to there easy? start. They have beaten huddersfield, hull fc, hull kr already teams that were above them last season.Dont be supprised if the likes of Leeds and Wigan get a closer game than you think. As for the injuries cas have a great squad this season the best in years and the youngsters are key at the club. Beware the tigers top 5 place this season.

Cas have a lot of points in the bank already and can cope with the odd loss. They will be fine.

Its a bit too early to be thinking of playoffs, for all we know, we could collapse and fail miserably or our halves end up being crippled and we struggle.

Last years collapse wasn't solely down to Orfords injury McNamara losing interest in the job was more the deciding factor.

I'd say it was a more to Orford's injury as up to that point he'd really been the major creative force in the side. Without him we struggled to produce anything, though I concede that McNamara getting the England job and having 1 eye on the door didn't help matters.

Sorry, it was just a prediction. And a wee discussion point.

I honestly think Cas will struggle to make the eight - they've had the most favourable first set of fixtures that anybody could possibly wish for. Let's see how they look when they've played some of the top teams.

They've also got a thin squad. I doubt they could cope with an injury list like we've had

Really???? You do realise that IF (yes we might not) but IF we beat Quins and Wakefield we will only need another 4 wins from 17 games to make the playoffs. That is one hell of a collapse! It would make Enron look like a few quid lost down the back of the sofa.

Who's your four most likely wins after those two. Make it six so we know who you'll have to make up against if you drop points unexpectedly.

I'll do your first one for you - Bulls h
