I think we are in a better situation than Wigan at the moment. We are poor just now but we've got first choice players to come back (7/8 of them) whereas Wigan are playing almost at full strength. Thursday nights result was disappointing but again we were in the game untill we ran out of subs so get our senior players back and we should improve. I agree that if we don't get results in the next 2 games then it'll be tough going when our seniors come back due to pressure.

Wigan will not go down. It won’t be allowed

I'm not a gambling man, just making an assertion that already at this point in the season we are in trouble with the team we have and the fact there are no easy wins anywhere. I don't think getting rid of Woolford is the answer either, he seems a better coach than any since Brown from what i am hearing and seeing. We need to be taking winnable games extremely seriously and should not be accepting lack of effort or commitment in any of them.

I think Shudds have something about them, its not going well atm but they at least look like they could put a few wins together.
Right now, its Leeds that look like they have nothing, obviously neither of them seem likely to be making mid table but its a bit early for both teams to be talking relegation.
Game 10 is the kick up the arris point, if neither have done anything by then, you have to start thinking about basement dog fights.

We’ve seen this before with a newly promoted team- remember how well Leigh were doing?
London I think will run out of steam. A couple of unlucky injuries to key players and the likes of KR and Salford will struggle. Nothing set in stone yet.

We’ve already had a fair few injuries and are winning, Salford I’d agree with as their squad is very short past the first 17. I’d make hudds favourites for the drop atm, you gotta hope London don’t do an us in 2007 and you do a Salford. Would Ken Davey stick around if you went down? It’d be a major concern of mine if I was a Hudds fan as you could quite easily do a Widnes if Ken throws in the towel.

two of the relegation rivals coming up

hull kr and london

we shall see where we are at after these two games

another interrupted pre season from us with thorman and mark andrews both going and injuries on top of that, disaster

Said Exactly the same today, can see Hudds going down and Ken saying enough is enough. Lets not forget he publicly made it clear a few years ago in the press he didnt think Huddersfield will ever get the fan base to become self sufficient.

Would the RFL let clubs like Hudds, Leeds and Wigan get relegated for the likes of Toronto? I doubt it.

They didnt do anything in 2001. I can see dodgy shifts in rules with Leeds and Wigan...But Huddersfield Nah.

Of course they would. Bradford who were previously part of the “big 4” were relegated twice into League One.
