Boy was Warrington so impressive last week at Widnes.
Your an average side apart from the top 2 its injuries that is the difference between us and 3rd.
Close game. 4-8 difference either way.
Did the two 70+ defeats not ring any alarm bells...a top three side does not get hammered 70+ in consecutive games. We can beat a dreadful Leigh side by 8 points... that is the best we can do... we are as close to being a top 3 side now as George Bush is of finding weapons of mass destruction.

At Warrington we just about lost the game. The gulf is between the top 2 and the rest. 3-7 is just down to injuries.
Do you think if we had a fully fit squad available we would be where we are today. There is a big gulf between us and the top 2 just as all have that problem and Wolves were lucky to beat Widnes.
I still stand on my prediction it can go either way. We have had 2 days more rest and that can work to our advantage.
If we had all the in jured players back we wold be 3rd now. Warrington are a decent side but thats all they are.
Did Hull draw at Leigh. They are in the top 4.
They beat the Broncos. Its top sides that hammer them. Akso we were missing 4-5 players again.
If we had a fit squad wed do them by 40 just as we did at home. Its not a reaction its fact that injuries has cost us a lot this season.
