We are hitting our straps just need to put a nice 4/5 game winning streak on to put pressure on the teams above us

Catalans next week which would be a huge win, although doable. Then after that we have something like Rovers, Cas, Huddersfield and Wakey. Some good chances there to pick up a nice run of wins.

Play off places more or less sewn up - 6 from the current top 7. But at least we are starting to see the impact of Smith so that makes the run in more interesting in terms of what we might expect next season.

It's certainly not the end of the world if we don't make the playoffs, this was always a transitional season. But with 11 games to go, 8 wins would give us an excellent chance of making it. Catalans and Rovers are both difficult games, but if we win them both then I'd back us to make it. We could do with really running the cleaners through someone to wipe out a lot of that negative PD. It might come down to that in the end.

Rovers, Saints and Wigan all still have the Challenge Cup distraction so it would be nice if any of them drop points around the semi final, either the week before or week after (both would be nice).
1 of Wigan or Rovers is guarantees in the final so again dropping points around that time would be helpful for us.

Ultimately all we can do is concentrate on ourselves and pur own games. In the background hopefully other fixtures just start to go our way a little.

We play at Wigan six days after the Challenge Cup Final so hopefully they go on and win it and then make wholesale changes for our game.

The up and down results we’ve seen this season anybody can take points off anyone. Would you have had Cas down for beating Warrington last night as an example?

We are 8pts of 1st & 2nd, 6pts off 3rd & 4th and only 4pts off 5th & 6th. Admittedly our pts difference puts us at a disadvantage but there’s still enough games left to give it a shot how ever long that shot may be.

Maybe seasons past you could have said top 6 were sewn up but not sure you can this season.
