Hull and Catalan , no problem another intense game against wigan ,surely we've got to beat saints once this season , leeds we've beat , can't lose 3 times to huddersfield, Castleford?? This could be our year after all if Sandow settles straight in and we keep injury free

Not really as it stands at the moment depending on how the cas game goes the most points wire can make is 36/38 after the last games the top 2 teams should be on 33&32 points which means they only have to win probably 3 defo 4 games from their 7 fixs to guarantee a top 4 finish , it looks like Hudds are gonna get 4th spot on 28 points. That means wire would have to win all 7 super 8s fixs and rack a few points diff up, that is really a big ask with cup games and there's always a risk of injuries to players. Basically the top 4 will have to win half of their super 8s fixs wire will have to win everyone.

There's little or no hope of a Top 4 finish for the teams 6th - 8th this season. We're where we deserve to be in the league end of story.
There will be lots of games exactly like last night's game, when it's mathematically impossible for 6th - 8th can't qualify and a team battling for a Top 4 place meet.
Could easily be a situation where 6-8 are out of contention after 2 games and then there will be 5 games where nothing rides on it for that team, and playing for pride games never end well
Looking at that way these super 8s might superduds ,fortunately we've got Sandow to keep us interested and I would love us to turn over the other teams ,losing saints or huddersfield games would be awful ,as would Cas if we don't win on Sunday

All depends on Sundays game really. Lose that and it's gone already I think as Hudds aren't going to lose to Wakey. Win at Cas and it's simple, we have to win 3 more games than Hudds do and 2 more than Cas and we're in. Not impossible, we've been much better over the last few games - but I think it's a case of too much too late unfortunately for the Wire. We live in hope
