After today's (Saturday's) results, we'd need to beat Hull by 91 to go top! More realistically, we go above Wire with a win or a draw.

Salford moved up to 4th on 26 points, so if we win we open up a 10 point gap. With 4 games left that means we're guaranteed a top 3 spot at worst.

All fairly obvious, but I like to see it written down. :roll:

I think he will go with Mago at loose forward. Time for Douglas to be given a game . It’s looking like Catalan is a must win game to finish top along with beating hkr at home, because of their superior points difference..

Need a big score today.

Top spot is still in our hands if we win all our games? Difficult but thats what is needed for top. Probably the most competative finish to the season for many years.

Salford has 28 points. Win all our games and we win the LLS. It is in our hands with 4 home games and one fixture on the road.

And so it begins, what a poor decision by Moore there :twisted:

Marshy in his element as captain. Encourages Tommo and asks for calm after Nsemba's wild pass.

Who is the Aussie Sheila doing the commentary, my god she is so monotonous, it's like I'm listening to a female version of Paul Cullen

Jon Wells is doing his best Mr Monotone as main commentator too.

We shouldn't grumble as we can still watch the game but the lack of any sort of drama in the production is making for a very dull experience. This won't be one for neutrals to turn to RL
