Fax 34v10 Batley. After saying that, the first thing RM should do at training is stick a note on't wall saying 2v6. No room for complacency on Sunday. It could turn out to be a real turning point of the season. Up The Fax!

Not just a turning point for the season but for many future seasons with the funding we will receive. The results in the middle 8 don't matter, the cash for getting there does.

We're flying right now, I reckon 48-10. UTFAX

Another exciting game ahead of us this week. A Fax win 48 v 10

44 - 8. Hopefully continue how we've been playing.

I think it will be a very tough game and a close one. I'm going for Fax 22 Batley 16. Ben Kaye to continue his try scoring run and score from a 1 yard break

Batley always raise their game against us and there is the small matter that they are in a relegation dogfight. I don't see this as an easy win. I think a few of our busted players will be rested and those coming in will need to step up to the plate. If we match their enthusiasm then our current confident form should see us through to a 28 12 win.

Batley will be up for this one after the Kearasaurus gives his traditional underdog speech. On form we should win easy but im going for a 10 point win but Batley will see a very different team to the one that beat them at the mount.

Checked their results. They are no easybeats. I don't think we need to rest players. Get the 4th spot secured first.

Correct.

Batley have pushed some good teams and with our record v them they cannot be taken lightly. Can see a first half tussle but finally pull away 2nd half

Yes another tough game as others have said, in addition they are still too close to the bottom end not to give it a real go.

Having said that how scary it becomes will be down to us, if Fax have the right heads on the scoreboard should take care of it's self with a home win.

If not it will be a lot closer with either side taking it.

RM will have us ready so Fax by 16.

We could do with amassing as much points as possible against Batley & Doncaster as it's likely going to come down to points difference.

Touch wood we should be ok. You cant see Sheffield improving their points difference too much with their run in and with them and Fev to play each other and also one of Bradford and Leigh each just winning those 2 games should be enough. Just as a measure of how good our defence has been this season that despite losing 5 more games than Bradford we have only conceded 40 points more than them. Ive been saying for quite a bit of the season that I think we are comfortably the 3rd best team in the division, we just need to prove it in our remaining games.

I think we became the 3rd best team in this league at Dewsbury,you couldn't really say we were before.The way this team are playing now though the top 2 should be worrying.

Think we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves on the points difference ambitions. I suspect Sunday will be tighter than we think - I'm plumping for a 26-12 win. We should worry about the result, not the score and not get complacent - that's what could trip us up right now.

I just get the feeling that RM wont allow the players to be complacent.

Worth reminding ourselves that, for teams who don't make the four, the season is far from over as they'll be carrying their points on to 30 games, not starting again on zero next month.

Exactly how is foul language graded ? Is Grade C worse than grade F ? The mind boggles.......

if fax turn up like we know they can this will be a comfortable win for us think we will get 40 again if we dont turn up it could be a difficult 1 but i still think we will win RM has got us firing at the perfect time UTFAX

Does that include Doncaster? Thought they were starting on zero ?

Mrs Huddshay is going for Fax 50v18 Batley.

If it comes down to points difference then we've done it IF we beat Batley & Donny. We have 80 on Fev who are at Leigh & 100 on Sheff who are playing Bradford so a win should increase that margin. They then play each other when we play Donny. Realistically, the worst case scenario will see us needing to avoiding losing to the Bulls by 50+ & Fev to beat Whitehaven by 50+ in the last round.

I'm suspecting Batley may have one eye on next weeks game against Hunslet. Kear will see it as far more winnable and important. After, an initial arm wrestle we'll get on top which will be the cue for a Batley collapse. Fax 50-12
