With tonight's result at Castleford, Wigan have confirmed their place in the play off's which leaves 2 spots left, with 2 rounds remaining.

The table as it stands.

Pos. Name. diff. pts
7 Catalans -45 24
8 Castleford -118 24
9 Warrington -42 22
10 Harlequins RL -42 22
11 Bradford -44 21
12 Hull -106 20

The matches remaining that matter.

Round 26:

Wigan Warriors v Hull FC
Catalans Dragons v Wakefield Wildcats
Harlequins RL v Castleford Tigers
Hull Kingston Rovers v Warrington Wolves
Bradford Bulls v Salford City Reds

Round 27:

Hull FC v Bradford Bulls
St. Helens v Catalans Dragons
Warrington Wolves v Harlequins RL
Castleford Tigers v Celtic Crusaders

I reckon the following:

Catalans beat Wakey, but lose to Saints (26 pts)
Cas beat quins and Celtic (28 pts)
Wire beat quins lose to HKR (24 pts)
Quins lose to Cas and Wire (22 pts)
Bulls beat Salford and Hull (25 pts)
Hull lose to Wigan and Bulls (20 pts)

I'm going for Catalans and Cas to make it for the final 2 spots, what about you?

I reckon the same 'cept Wakey to beat Catalans letting the Bulls sneak into the play-offs

I think with both Wigan and Wakey they've pretty much guaranteed 5th and 6th and home advantage so may want to rotate players to keep them fresh.

However you never know you could sneak it

They can still get 4th

Aye, Rovers could easily lose their next two and let them in.

catalans and cas

Both ourselves and Wigan can only finish on a maximum of 32 points. KR are on 33 so not able to be caught.

Ah bugger, you're right.

Well, we have Celtic to play yet and I'm fairly confident we'll get a point at least in that one.

We bloody well better

Mind, I thought the same when we lost to Salford...

Ahh but we're away so I feel more confident of a victory

Glad I share your optimism

I'll take a win at Wembley over a win at Celtic though

Me too, as we could always beat Wigan in the last game and still cement 4th.

Well Cas have now secured a play off spot but who will make the final spot?

I now revise my predictions to:

Wire will beat quins (24 pts)
Bulls will beat Hull (25 pts)
Catalans lose to Saints (24 pts)

That makes the Bulls to pip Catalans and Wire to the final spot, that's some comeback to be fair.

bulls will lose 10
Catalans will lose 8
warrington will win by 20

Bulls will sneak into the 8 on the last week.
