Great result tonight, especially when you consider the other 3 Challenge Cup Quarter Final winners from last weekend all lost. Both Widnes and Castleford suffered heavy defeats and Leeds lost narrowly to Huddersfield.

Think that is our first Super League win at Craven Park since 2011, not one of our happiest hunting grounds, so very pleased with the win.

Well played Wire, Westwood is back next week and Paul Wood isn't too far off his return either, so things are looking good.

Cas looked shot to pieces tonight. It was always going to be the case once they got a few injuries, but what the hell happened to Widnes? They got absolutely stuffed.

I actually wouldn't be suprised if Cas start to fall away a bit now. I think they put a hell of a lot into the cup game, they clearly fancy their chances of winning the CC but I think they'll struggle to maintain their league form.

As for Wires, the June & July's fixtures have fallen very nicely for us. With some of the walking wounded back during that period, we should really be flying by the time August and the SF come around.

I was thinking this 4th is well within our grasp, 3rd is only achievable if 1 of the top 3 go into free-fall which is very unlikely.

Agreed, but for me the only team currently in the top 3 who look virtually certain of retaining their current standing is Saints, plus they don't have the distraction of the cup.

Leeds' season has reached a crossroads - Burrow is out, Sinfield is having a poor season, their pack is looking low on gas so they need to regroup rapidly.

Wigan were good tonight, against a heavily-fatigued Cas team, but they were poor in the semi and still rely very heavily on O'Loughlin's for direction. Without him they still look vulnreable to me.

Still all to play for, and the momentum is undoubtedly with us.

How long is Burrow out for, Does anyone know?

Back mid-July I believe, maybe earlier

After some of the comments here a couple of months back it's great to finally see some optimism. Wires indeed looking good for the end of season push!

It's the first time that Cas have lost by more than eight points this season, this forum wrote them off in March and I still don't think they will go away as simply as some suggest.

If Widnes beat Wigan on Wednesday then we're only 2 points off 3rd!

Now there's a game all good Wire fans will have nightmares abut who we want to win.

Do we want Widnes to win so that it pegs back the Pies , or do we want Wigan to beat the Smellies because they are the Smellies.

Makes you feel dirty just thinking about it.

Widnes v Wigan on Wednesday ! Is that to make way for World Cup tv schedules ?

It's due to the World Club Challenge.

Okay I've decided.... I deffo want a Widnes win

Wigan for me. However only after it has gone to a replay!

Draw for me as I just can't bear the thought of either winning ideally with lots of 'Peacockery' and subsequent visits to the RFL disciplinary panel

It's a rescheduled match, was supposed to be round 2.

Widnes for me. Not that they will. Pies by 30+

not to fussed who wins..doesnt matter any more

Saints getting put to the sword in France opens it up, Catalan will be 8th on 17 points with Saints leading with 24, leaving us middle of the pack on 20.

Lol

Almost feel sorry for the Saints fans who went over there (but not quite). Widnes won't get anywhere near Wigan on Wednesday. if they do, a stewards enquiry should be in the offing.
