| It’ll be a nervy 80 minutes most likely.
We’re missing a few, but 17 of the 19 announced should have enough with the right attitude and fairish wind. Fingers crossed!

| It’s time we had a bit of the zook emas hose type confidence in reality this should be a straight forward win London struggled badly against two teams we’ve beaten and only a late flurry of points made there defeats respectable so yes we will win and I’m not in the slightest bit nervous

This is what concerns me.
After years of toil and investment and building our fan base to approaching 8,000 even some of our own fans believe that just one defeat to a club who attract just 627 with a home of barely 2,000 on a plastic pitch mean that we 'deserve' to be replaced by them.
That can't be right surely?

| If we give London the amount of possession that we gave Halifax I really think we will lose.They will overtake us if they win and will fancy their chances.They will throw the ball around and our defence has been poor recently and we could come unstuck. We seemed to lack some passion and real aggression last time and absolutely cannot be like that against London.
We are losing players now and cannot afford Another MPG. The consequences could be dire.
We have to nullify Sammut who always causes us problems, and cut out the errors, stop giving them possession and kill their confidence. We must win this one and should,but the players must have their game heads on. We are due a good performance at home. We need it, can do it, but we need it now.Hate these qualifiers!

| How quickly some fans forget really good away wins against Toronto and Leeds and focus on a patchy performance against Halifax when the game was won inside the first 20 mins

Don,t forget anything Frankie. Been watching the Robins since the early sixties. Seen some great times and some terrible times. Don,t ever want those terrible ones again.A couple of bad results or bad calls could be really bad news. Just want the boys to win and keep us up.

It wasn’t directed at just you it just seems since we were relegated nobody seems to have any confidence going into any game

That year, and maybe the 2015 cup final did create a profound sense of pessimism. For me at least.
2017, and the way our team is organised and plays under Sheens have gone a long way to remedying that. If we do stay up, I think I will look forward to 2019 with optimism and hope. They may turn out to be unjustified, but at least they’ll be there initially. 2016 was dismay all the way, and through 2017 and 2018 there’s been that fear factor that one slip at the wrong moment and all the repair work could be for nothing.
Still, it’s maybe worth counting our blessings sometimes too.

| The win was all that matters but was far from convincing.We look a tired side and the injuries are mounting up but we are finding a way to win games we would have lost in the past. Still not sure what points guarantee top3? Just hope London and Toulose fight out 4 and 5th instead of the cheating so and so's faux Canadian experiment .But that's another win chalked up and happy as a fan

We will quite probably need to win both of our remaining fixtures to avoid the MPG. The 10 point safety figure isn't as clear cut this year.

| I reckon they’ll be favourites vs Widnes. If Leeds win by a decent score against Fax next week, they’ll be effectively, if possibly not mathematically safe. Would they then come out all guns blazing versus Toronto in the final game?
I suppose if Toronto beat Widnes, the Vikings will likely have nothing to play for against us - but equally nothing to lose.
The top 4 all have games against the bottom 4 next week. This could be the year that proves the point that 5 wins can still leave you in the MPG. More hopefully, if we beat Toulouse and Widnes do us a favour in Canada, if we’re home and hosed. Every minute matters!
I know you can point to any number of decisions, but if Child hadn’t given Leeds that iffy penalty vs Salford and that game had ended in a draw, our position would be much better. And if McGuire’s pass to Hall at Headingly... and if my auntie...

Never been any questions in my mind on this and yes we'll finish top 3. Any fool can see what we have spent on players we have a very experienced coach and 4 games at home. Those suggesting we may get pipped to third by Toronto clearly have not digested the fixture list nor understood the disruption factor for them
The concern for me is - so what? I started a thread months ago on where we are headed. Last night's 80 minutes was a good illustration of the last 6 years dicking about in the bottom 4. There will be plenty of chimps clapping along like it's success to beat London or better yet part-time Halifax at home but there is nothing to suggest we will be any better any time soon. In fact with a team promoted and only one down the complacency of recent years could mean there is less interest. The top 5 will be this year's top 4 and Catalans.
The current format had obvious disadvantages for recruitment. But at least it forced performance and action. I don't see how we progress to top 5 with most of this squad retained and a coach who'll be 70 or 71 when his new deal expires. Apart from Mulhern which of our squad would Wigan or Saints want? Yes the board will come out with the same PR of wanting to consolidate and challenge for trophies but this is the same board that said years ago and more than once they would walk if they thought all we were doing was surviving and trying to get in the play offs.. Again there will be those that think the new financial deal is to our advantage but it's the same for all clubs some of them already doing more than us in worse grounds and lower crowds yet better squad's. This post will be criticised as negative no doubt. If anyone can take some facts from our years since 2012 to point to genuine reasons to expect better things coming up I am keen to see them

Just a slight positive. We were one of the form teams at the back end of the regular season. Unfortunately did not get our top players back on the pitch in time. Don’t accept your ageist comment at all. I can get you the telephone number of the Samaritans if you would like it.
