After the recent string of results I think we should look at last season for perspective, our results before the split for the 8s included:
Cas at home - lost
Warrington away - lost
Hull away - lost
Leeds at home - lost
Saints at home - lost
The only difference this year is that we lost away to Wigan whereas we won last year. We also have to play Wigan at home (which we lost last year in the normal season) so if we reverse that we are no worse off than last year.
Admittedly the fixture list hasn't been kind to us recently but you can only play what is put in front of you.
I think we are still strong contenders for the 8s and where we finish beyond that....?????

Very good post. I have been feeling a bit negative at our narrow defeats but in fact it is practically identical when you look at it like this. My only worry is that confidence will be affected by a string of defeats, however noble we were in defeat. But we should not get too down-hearted yet
