That would have been sensible tho. We'll get hammered on Sunday. You have z slightly better chance as at least wakey have played as well. Complete madness to schedule it like this. |

It certainly was. My point is the same as Mrs. B's in that these catch-up matches could have been played much earlier in the season. |

Difficult to say what would be better for us now, scraping the 8 by a miracle and getting hammered every week, or playing the middle 8 with an opportunity of respectability but risk of relegation. Brilliant. |

The middle 8s will be the better spectacle but I'd still rather watch your lot in them then ours. Far too twitchy a time. |

| Quote ="His Bobness"IMO the short turnarounds against fully rested opponents made it a difficult task for Rovers last night and yourselves tonight. Even more so given the hot conditions.
To make matters worse Rovers found themselves up against the strongest Salford line up for months and you found yourselves up against a Wakefield team rejuvenated by Brian Smith and some new signings.
Hull started very strong tonight and looked several classes above Wakefield but after that Hull's intensity dropped off considerably and from then on Hull looked laboured.
I wouldn't be surprised if we both struggle again at the weekend. This idea of making teams play in the challenge cup a round early and reschedule a SL game midweek has to be looked at again.'"
The scheduling is easy to sort out. When the World Club challenge games are played those teams in the early round of the CC cup play their games. Then when the early cc games are played those in the WCC can play their outstanding fixture. Not really rocket science. |

Yes but we're perfectly capable of doing what's known as a 'Westerman'. |

Hhhhmmmmm
I dont reckon Catalan are getting another point and it's probable that we wont either. Therefore 7th place finish and the big difference with that is we dont go to Catalan, they come to us. |

8 points from corresponding league fixtures?
Cats at home, Saints, Wire & Cas away?! Would fancy against Giants at home now aswell. So that's 10 points, could be enough for 5th?
Easy this top 8 business... |

Of course they are. Catalans will get hammered by Leeds if Salford's recent experience is anything to go by. Rovers won't even need to win by that many at Saints. |

So, Rovers beat Saints by 30 and Leeds beat Catalans by more than 40 and Rovers qualify?
No worries, but Hudgell wants them to lose, doesn't he?

Huddersfield winning today was a blow to our slim top 4 hopes. I think its feasible that we could catch Cas and if Warrington get distracted by the cup we can probably finish ahead of them too. But Huddersfield will finish on 28 which means we have to beat Wigan or its all over.
If Huddersfield lose to the top 3, us, and one other they would finish on 32, and given the PD that means we need 6 wins from 8.

Think all of Grudgells talk of being a "painful death" in the super 8s sums up his clubs small time mentality.
Can only be a good thing. The biggest positive to me is that it will give our young players involved a lesson in intensity that can only serve them well in their future development.
They'll learn more from any defeats in the super 8s then any victory in the middle 8s
No pressure now. One less game next year. Win - win
