I felt that Bradford, Wakefield and Castleford would be amongst the bottom four whilst Widnes and Catalans would also miss out on the play-offs this time out. Not much has changed my mind... I don't see any of the names I mention finishing above the two Hull clubs and Salford who I suspect will be the 6th to 8th clubs.
Given that Bradford are missing their best two halfbacks in Jarrod Sammut and Lee Gaskell plus theiir best Prop Garreth Carvell and have just gone through yet another morale sapping episode you wonder how much of a reaction there will be on Saturday. There are only so many times you can create an artificial emotional high and the big pre-season thrashing to Castleford suggested that morale may not be that high.
I'll be going and let us hope for an improved performance again.
