Just looking at Saints and Wires.

Saints

Bulls at Home
Crusaders - Away
Cas - Home

Wires

Wake - Away
Hull FC - Home
Quins - Away.


I think that's right.

Both teams have semis and possibly cup final as well.

But given those complications I think Saints can secure second spot.

But this season we have not been able to take beating any team for granted.

Ch.

Might go down to points For and Against, I reckon both Saints and Wire to lose one more game, eg Crusaders (saints) Wakefield (wire)

saints look like they will get 2nd for me...I can see us dropping four points there.

I can see us finishing 2nd, I reckon Hull will beat Warrington.

It will probably come down to points difference and I can see Wire posting a massive score against quins if any of their (Quins) last games are anything to go by. We will need to rack up some big scores against teams in our remaining games.

I can see us doing the same against Bradford too.

Not that bothered,we need to rotate some players. Graham inparticular.

Its a difficult one to predict - in theory both sides 'should' take six points, but there is at least one potential banana skin in both teams run ins.

Bradford are terrible and it will only take a Saints collapse to see defeat. We should beat Crusaders but they have a knack of pulling out the odd surprise win and even more so at Wrexham. And Cas are just as unpredictable as we are - a win should be expected but a defeat isn't impossible.

I'm confident of finishing second - all we can do is ensure we win all three games though. If it comes down to for/against then I'm confident we have the ability to rack up a big score against one of the teams and do what we need to do.

It won't bother whether you finish 2nd or 3rd anyway. You'll still beat us.

It's got to end some day. It will be unfortunate for us if that happens to be in the playoffs!

A lot will depend on who goes to Wembley.

If we both get through then its equal pressure, if not chances are the semi loser will finish second.

It was a great game and good to win last night but we may well play each other another three times this year if we both get to Wembley.
We could meet twice in the play offs but its only the last one that matters, that could decide who goes to OT.

I think both teams will win last 3 games, it will go down to who can put on some big scores.

I can't beleive wolves didn't take 2 points when they got that pen, that imo would have gave them 2nd spot.

It doesn't really bother me, as we will be playing Warrington anyway. With a few more players back, the team would have to fancy their chances home or away.

The only game i can see us or wolves losing is if one or both get to CC final.

Looking a distinct possibility

Saints point difference = 363

Wires = 347

If Wires beat Wakefield then both will be level on 36 points with 2 games to play.

Ch.

Crusaders next week will be very very tough, they are looking pretty good and was unlucky not to beat hull last night.

We also get a week off for the challenge cup weekend, which will be a much needed rest.

The week before and after the final are always pretty tough games.

I had Crusaders away as a bit of a "banana skin", but as we get more bodies back and have that team confidence, I get the feeling we will be OK now for this one. On saying that we will probably lose if the referee appointment is one Ian Smith.

I think we'll beat Crusaders, but I don't think it'll be by a big score.

Perhaps we'll have something to play for in the last game.

The crusaders are playing pretty well at the moment.

Exactly as you'd expect with Nobby as coach. He knows how to coach teams into the playoffs.

Let's hope we are really on our game on Saturday and keep their fesity halfback whatshisface under control.

Noble has done a very good this year, his team was just thrown together at the last min and have done very well to be on verge of making the play offs.

We've got something to play for in everygame. If we win next week then the last match of the season against Cas should be a very vocal game with all the fans cheering us on to hopefully a good scoreline.

Well Wire have a +4 advantage over us. We can still get second but how costly were those two soft tries we let Bradford score on Friday night.

You will probably beat us anyway,whatever ground its at.

And we are also " more cross than a cross mam in a cross shop! "
