Can we finish in the Top 5?

We are, somehow, only 2 points off fifth so can miracles happen?

And what a story if we are GF winners!

If we make it to the GF and win it does that mean Lam is a good coach and certain fans will admit it and praise him :D

Yes, we can finish 5th or even 4th. From memory, we've won 5 of our last 7 league games, whilst teams like Wakefield, Salford and Cas are fading after good starts.

What chance of us getting to GF? 1000 to 1 at best.

If we win the GF under Lam, I would be delighted, and would certainly put my hand up and admit I was completely wrong. However, anyone who detects a coach knowing what he is doing hasn’t been paying attention.

Win the next three and yes, we could make 5th. Lose 1 and we're round 6th to 8th, Lose 2 and we're in the relegation battle.

Hardly 1000/1 Morley. bookies are only offering between 12/1 and 14/1 for us to win it. !!!

I suppose this is what the powers that be want an open competition but let’s be fair Wigan’s form and performance all season it’d be a travesty if they made the top 5 let alone win the GF

Would it be a travesty if Cas Make the top 5 having so far won one more game than Wigan,or even Catalan both showing patchy form.If you get enough points you deserve the place.

Is that down to the comp it’s self,I think the standard across the board has been abysmal,no beginnings? don’t make me laugh

The same standard that the NRL are pilloring our ranks for across the comp with a record number of SL players plying their trade over there ! And that's on top of some players who choose to stay here.
A record number of League coaches being poached by the rival code, to spice up their game is not an indication our game is "abysmal".
I think some League fans really excel in decrying the very sport they are supposed to love; I've never heard union fans criticize or chastise their game like some on here do.
I took a friend, Liverpool supporter, to a game at the DW last season and he said he couldn't understand all the wingeing from people throughout the 80 !!
Just go with your mates/family, have a pint and enjoy it. It won't kill you.
