Keep winning is my view
So if folk are fit stick with a winning team, any hints of injuries then rest em

Win every game we can. Keep the pressure on Leigh til the end to keep players in form and in shape. If a game is beyond doubt I'm not against resting some players towards the end of the match though. Though I ultimately think we will come second I don't see you wouldn't be aiming for first place still.

Am with you Sogs, start resting players and you risk throwing games away, winning is a habit, as is losing, so why would you risk the winning habit assuming that you will get it back after a couple of losses.

Without doubt we are in the middle 8's. I cannot see us losing second place either.
The way the remaining games pan out, Leigh will probably win all four games.
We really only have to win one of the four to keep us in second. I believe we will do better than that.
Bradford should get enough points to put them third,
It is for Batley and Halifax to fight over fourth.
Think it is the tea cup for Featherstone again this year.
As for any Championship team winning promotion. Not likely, judging by yesterdays game.

2 things Bostwick

Fax are on a roll, Bulls on a slide(Leigh next for them)
That was an impressive Leigh performance yesterday

Halifax play Leigh away, cannot see them winning there. Best they can hope for is 31 points, if Fev, Swinton and ourselves are rolled over.
Batley play Haven, Swinton, Fev and ourselves. I would fancy them over Fax.
Cannot see a Championship team getting promoted, Leigh are the best in Division, but still not good enough.

The most points Batley and Halifax can get is 33, We need to win next two games (34 points) then last two games against Batley and Halifax will be dead rubbers.

if Bulls lose next week to Leigh...I see the top 4 as Leigh, London, Batley, Halifax

Yes,it will be very difficult to see a glimpse of the promised land.But don't take everything for granted,as in written in stone.The middle 8's will carry a mixed bag of results no more than last season.
Halifax beat Bradford 52-18,Sheffield beat Halifax 28-24,Bradford beat Sheffield 42-10.Sheffield in return beat Wakefield 24-10 and Wakefield in return beat Bradford 48-18.

Not just a case of being good enough.They are all one off games,not just the MPG.And anything can happen as with the results above.

and with Jamie Soward coming, the future is bright... Now lets beat Sheffield and confirm top 2
