a realistic possibility? I say this because we haven't been firing on all cylinders and I feel we've been playing within ourselves, hopefully our semi appearance and possible final appearance don't derail our charge to the playoffs, I think HKR may continue to slip up and the only game we have coming up which we "can't win"

is the Saints game, Hudds are only 4 points away if we win today and with Celtic away next week we should be in good nick. I'd love to see us in 3rd, but get a feeling it would be more likely 4th. In Smith we trust.

6th is realistic, 4th optimistic, 8th pessimistic

Pessimistic. meaning?

the worst we will finish

i'd like to think that with a resurgance in form continuing, and everyone else appearing to hit the skids (compared to us) 5th isn't an unreasonable target possibly 4th(depending on if i've remembered the table/points correctly)

Ta

said it weeks ago 4th.. top 8 defo nailed on....

10th....

Ninth

Can personally seeing the lads finishing 4th/5th. Any other views?

AND...

Can anyone remind me how the playoffs work this season? Is it true that 1st spot can pick who they want to play?

Ahh ok no problemo

Mine - 5th


Morley's - 2nd

I think wire will make the play-offs, I think 4th is realistic with the way your playing. I think wire will end up 5th or 6th.

A few bad results could still see us drop out of the 8. How much energy will the saints game take out of us again? After we lose in the last minute again next week, how long is the losing run going to go on for at such a crucial part of our season?

I agree, I think we'll probably lose against Saints, unless we have a near full strength team (except Higham), but I really can't see Smith letting one result affect us the way it has in the past - IMO he's too good for that...And, perhaps with the exception of the Leeds game, we should be able to go into all the league fixtures with confidence....Which is a far cry from where we were 3 months ago..

Wire will beat saints, quote me on it.

That would be very nice...The hairy tramp that is Cunningham being out may help...But we'll see...As a Wire, Saints games have become a bit of an enigma to me, and I expect the worst....It's been a while.

still reckon we`ll finish up 4th....and my prediction on how the league will finish..
1..saints
2..leeds
3..hudds
4..wire
5..wigan
6..rovers
7..quins
8..wakey
9..cats
10..hull
11..brad
12..cas
13..salford
14..celtic

Good one

Wire, saints games have been awesome over the last few years overshadowing all other derbies in terms of quality.

5th would be the best we can finish and 8th the worst imo

i think your right, tbh if we have an end of season like last year we'd be lucky to make 8th

if we have the form of the past few weeks including unconvincing wins we manage to pull off nowadays along with a scalp from either leeds or saints 5th is quite posible


bring it on!

I agree.
The 'Smith' factor is at work.
