Having a good luck at fixtures heres what I believe the final table will look.

Let us know what you all think.

Wigan play:

Wire at Home - Wigan Win
Cas away - Wigan Win
Hull Home - Wigan win
Hudders away - Wigan Lose

6 more points will equal 30points.

Wakey play:

Celtic Home - Wakey Win
Wire away - Wakey Lose
Catalan Away - Wakey Lose
Hull KR Home - Wakey win (Hull KR 1 eye on Play offs.)

4 More points will equal 28 points.

Castleford Play:

Leeds Away - Cas lose
Wigan Home - Cas lose
Quins away - Cas win
Celtic Home - Cas win

4 more points equal 28 points but poorer P/D to Wakey

Wire Play:

Wigan away - Wire lose
Wakey Home - Wire win
Hull KR Away - Wire Lose
Harlequins Home - Wire Win

4 more points equals 26 points.

Quins Play:

Bradford Home - Quins win
Salford Home - Quins win
Hull Away - Quins lose
Cas Home - Quins Lose
Wire Away - Quins lose

4 more points equals 26 points

Catalan Play:

Salford Away - Catalan Win
Hull Home - Catalan Win
Bradford Away - Catalan Win
Wakey Home - Catalan Win
Saints Away - Catalan Lose

From my Estimations I believe it will finish:

5. Wigan Warriors
6. Wakey Wildcats
7. Catalan Dragons
8. Cas Tigers

with Quins and Wire to miss out. Close but thats how I feel. What do Others think?

Sorry to Hull and Bradford who are PROBABLY out of it now.

I dont see why we (quins) will lose to Hull and Cas

We'll make the 8 easy.

After 1999 I wouldn't want Cas at our place!

I put this as you are on and off at the moment. Yeh you won today but you were playing who again? Not including Murrayfield Cas have only lost twice away and we walked you last year, thats why i put this.

quins will win at hull (as will everybody else)

I think Wigan will beat us at our spot in round 27 if we are guaranteed 3rd and no better/worse. They have it all to play for (home advantage in PO E1).

I also think the Wakefield /Hull KR game could also be similar because of the same reasoning. Esp with them looking for the home draw too.

I would expect Wigan / Wakie & possibly Cas (beat Quins on Wellsy13's list above) to all be on 26 and score difference to be the key.

A lot depends on injury, illness and who is in the cup.

For example.
Hull KR have two weeks to prepare for their home game against St.Helens.
They should therefore hammer Saints who are likely to be battered from a gruelling cup semi the week before.

Wigan V Wire match follows a gruelling semi final result. Wigan have had a number of big games and i suspect sooner or later its going to catch up with them. If Wigan lose in the cup expect them to lose this as well. If Wire lose in the cup they will IMO go into meltdown, and fail to recover mentally.

Leeds v St.Helens this to me depends on if Saints get to the cup final or not.
If Saints get to the cup final then its a gimme to Leeds.
If Saints get knocked out then it could go either way.

Theres also the factor of teams being guaranteed a league position and therefore slackening off with games remaining.

I personally think Leeds will come top with second dependant on who wins the cup semi between Hudds and St.Helens.

If Wire get to the cup final i think they will look at their poor league position and sacrifice any playoff hope for a single minded preparation and determination to win the CCup.

From a Catalans point of veiw I feel if Quins dont slip up against the bulls then it will be very tough to make the 8. Assuming the usual doenst happen and Catalans save their worst performance of the year for the willows.

You don't seriously belive this do you?

0-0 ?

I seriously wouldn't be surprised at all. In fact, I may have to put a bet on that one in hope of winning big money!

I'm hoping for another 71-0 from the Bulls, round the season off nicely.

Quins should beat Bradford, Salford and Hull. Castleford did hammer us last year as someone has pointed out, but that was in the immediate aftermath of the Catalans bannings saga so I expect this game to be a cracker. As for Wire, I can see nothing other than a pasting for us after we spanked them earlier this season.
For me, the top 8 will be the 4 as they are at the top, followed by
Catalans
Wire
Harlequins
Castleford

So Wigan lose every game and fall out of the top 8?

Rovers should have a good chance in that game. Saints are likely to throw everything into the semi there may not be a lot left for the Rovers game which would have been a hard one under normal circumstances.

It's a possibility, but I doubt Saints will be so knackered after the cup that they'll find it impossible to compete with HKR and go down to a thrashing (in the days of sixty point tonkings at Headingley after winning the cup Millward seemed to adopt an attitude that condoned underperformance in such circumstances). A tight game is far more likely

yep

Salford City Reds v

Leeds Rhinosicon_razz.gifRAY:

what do you mean? on our current form a league double is assured

You need to look at injuries as well as form, and we have a no. of key players back....and hey presto we've started winning again.

Eating your words now mate, need to win your last two now and Hope we lose 2

I might take a cheeky bet on Bradford making the 8. Could be quite a few bob to be made if it happens.

What are you on about?
Rounding off who's season?
We have at least 2 games to play after the season end.
I'm much more concerned with what we are doing tbh.
