We play Huddersfield twice in a month soon, if win both of them we will be well on our way to survival.

They are in danger of taking points from Wigan here....didn't expect that

Forget Huddersfield, Wigan are the out of form team with relegation potential. Now we all know that will not be allowed to happen !!!

Huddersfield winning at Wigan throws a spanner in the works. As I said earlier the relegation dog fight could end up between several clubs, London, Huddersfield, Wigan, Leeds, Salford and Hull kr could all potentially be down there at the end of the year.

After the game I made it clear to some Wigan fans they should just concentrate on staying up and consolidating this year...I was 100% joking....I would now be only 95% joking which is in itself extradinary....

In fairness they took it with very good humour and behaved well down here...unlike some of the Wakey fans after we beat them.

Wigan fans are talking about relegation on there site! Then again the way leeds are going they could be in the battle at the bottom, very early in the season but london could see next fri as a four pointer

It doesn’t look like Salford, the team I thought would go down, will be in the relegation fight. They are upto 8 points after hammering Catalans.

Leeds are in serious trouble, our defence has been appalling, rumours of players fighting each other in training. It is absolutely vital for us to get the win on Friday, i’d say it’s fair to call it a relegation 4-pointer as things stand, 2019 is looking a massively unpredictable year.

There have always been rumours of players fighting at Leeds ,but I thought when they signed these Marquee players if it would cause resentment, especially when Hetherington persuaded players to sign for less money than they could get elsewhere , but had more chance of winning things ag Leeds. A few of these players will still be at the club ..If Leeds dont show any sifnicang improvement on Friday the club is in crisis

Mentioned it back end of last season that mr Sinfield could be looking for a job, it was scoffed at a bit. Interesting the 2 new coaches this seaon in lam and Furner are both falling short so far

Wigan and Leeds are 2 points behind us, Catalans and HKR and sitting with Huddersfield.
Of the two failing coaches, Lam has to be seen to be unluckiest, losing to us by a point and Hull by 2. Losing to Saints at Saints by 10 isn't bad either. Furner on the other hand is in deep doo doo........I see it being between us, Hudds and depending on how long Furner lasts, Leeds for the drop spot.

In other news, Toronto are playing some dour rugby under Mac.....with some people suggesting they only scrape wins when individuals step up and play their own games and not to his instructions. I said as much when he went to Leeds and was shouted down and shown the "trophies".......but once the Individuals at Leeds drifted away, Mac was found wanting and the reality that he is an average coach (but a good man manager) came to light.....just watched the Toronto defeat in France and I have to say they looked dire in defense in the second half losing 40-0...they only just got past Dewsbury the week before....a couple more defeats and the cruise to SL may become a bit bumpy for Toronto and Mac may need to look for another job.
