Those two defeats to Celtic and Salford are looking crucial now - win them and we'd be just over the 50% win ratio and only need to maintain that to pick up a spot. Now, we need top four form just to make the eight.

If we had a better home record of 5 points from 14 we'd be in a better position.

I have. The only time I haven't was after the Wire match when I felt truly let down and disheartened.

Well, we're now 1 point behind the 4 teams directly above us with at least 1 game in hand over each of them. However, the next 2 games are against Saints and Leeds. They're going to be hard, but if we can dig down like we did the last times we played them then we'll be in a far stronger position going forward

I was just thinking that about the table. Wigan have played two more than us, and are 1 point ahead. And if Cas, Wire, Hull and Wigan all lose next week and we win we would go into seventh. Big if I know, but I have faith

Another big thing is we have almost got a full squad to choose from haven't we?

Macca is going to have a big call next week, Keep Beaver at centre, where in my books he's played his best or switch him to second row or bench.

Interesting.

I think he'll be at centre because I think Sykes will be left out just to make sure he's 100%

I think Menzies plays better at centre, given we've got Morrison and Burgess back for next week and with Cook and Worrency up for selection we can afford to move him
