Burns dixon to miss out. I would have reynolds in every day b4 burns. What is wrong eith tonga this week, still waiting for him to rip up the 8's

Stephen, I have tried to explain things in the Going,Going, Gone, thread, I hope it helps.

Burns has had half a good game since joining us should be on the plane back to aussie land

I dont see Reynolds in that 19..I see Burns.

Prop..We are going to the promised land,watch and see..

The Promised Land?Blackpool?

Is Magic Weekend there next season Charlie? If not, I'm not going..

Atomic, I like to think I'm a realist Clown,we are a fair way off SL,I know it may sound negative,but I like to think of myself as cautious.

i too see burns, but my point is i'd rather see reynolds in. He is the future, burns is not.

Then the clown needs to edge his bets to the Batley game..Mines firmly on 7 from 7,at the moment I'm well on course.

But Burns is the present,Reynolds is not.

I thought Harrison Hansen was banned?

Nope, found not guilty.

Charlie how do you get to the point of ''we are a fair way off SL''??

Good Afternoon Ste, hope you are well?To answer your question,I have already stated I'm a very cautious bloke and take very little for granted,more half empty,than half full to get to SL a lot of folk are saying we need 10 pointsto be certain

here is a scenario for you, if Salford beat Leeds tonight, and go on to beat the 3 Championship clubs they end up on 10 points,if HKR beat us tomorrow ,then beat Hudds and the 2 Championship clubs they have left to play, they end up on 10 points,meaning we then have to win 2 games out of the 3 left , just to finish on 10 points as well

,I know a few IFS in there but it's possible,which I hope answers your question Ste.

We would then be looking at points difference and the MPG with 10 points.

......and we are the worst points difference wise after throwing away 46 points in the last 15 minutes of each of our 3 games to date

We will be on 12 points if this happens

Yep that's correct. Still too many permutations to know what Leigh will need. We could even be having to get a result at Leeds yet unless we beat KR Giants and Batley. In which case it's party time!!!!

Will it be any clearer after tonight?

If we beat you, Hudds and the two championship clubs we will be on 12.

Mr Balls has already pointed that out

Not if both Giants and KR get to 10 points which is still possible. Our points difference is likely to be vastly inferior due to leaking 46 points at the end of all our games

That is true Charlie, and what you forgot to mention is if Hudds beat Leeds and Leigh only beat 1 of Hudds or Rovers and the loser against us goes on to beat the one that beat us theres a chance Leigh, Leeds, Hudds, Rovers and Salford will all be on 10. But then again if me auntie had she would be my uncle....

And all the above makes us as far away to SL as the others... Keep the faith we might be on 8 points nearly this time tomorrow...
