I'd say beat us both in the next 3 weeks and we have no chance

Very possible...we play like we did on Friday and it will not be a problem for KR or Bulls.

However I still believe we will finish 4th

4/5.considering our injuries again,it will be a damn good finish

The semi-final results are going to be a massive factor in the finishing position of Hull this season. It is something that Rovers have benefited from in recent seasons and you are likely to be 4 points better off if Wire and Leeds head to Wembley.
From Rovers point of view we finish the season with 4 of our last 5 games against Cas (h), Bradford (h), Salford (a) and Crusaders (a).
IF we win the Derby and IF Wire and Leeds fail to reach Wembley then it could be an exciting finish to the regular season.

I think you could be right, although Huddersfield's run-in looks relatively comfortable.

A Hull win at Odsal would be good news for Rovers.

1 Wigan points 34

2 Warrington points 30

3 St Helens points 28

4 Hull 46 points 26

5 Leeds points 25

6 Huddersfield points 21

So 7 games to go and we have a 5 point lead over Hudds in 6th. Hudds have to go to Leeds and Wigan so, assuming they lose those 2 games, 3 wins for us would see us finish in 5th at worst.

With just a 1 point lead over Leeds its going to be tough to hold onto 4th IMO but imagine the atmosphere at the KC if the last game of the season was a straight shoot-out between us and Leeds for 4th spot.

I think with the injuries Saints have, it will be Leeds 3rd, Hull 4th and Saints 5th and even Wire have some hard games to come too, so you never know.

If you asked me at the beginning of the season, i would have said 6th. Anything above that would be a bonus on last season. If you asked me now i think we'll finish in 5th place which on past season is a excellent progress. Just hope that they can build on that for next season

Saints have a relatively easy run-in so I can see them hanging onto 3rd TBH.

I think that 5th is looking very likely now. Our key injuries and a Leeds team back to it's best is going to make holding on to the 4th spot very difficult.

A Wire v Leeds CC final will certainly do us a big favour but 5th spot is looking inevitable and TBH not a bad result given recent seasons. However, it really does make you wonder where we could have finished without those three or four shockers. Crusaders, Salford, Quins and more recently the Hudds capitulation. Even just half of those points would have given us a good shot at a top two finish.

Rovers could do us a massive favour this week

You scratch our back we'll scratch yours

Its a conspiracy, you watch dodgy results unfold in the last couple of weekly rounds to ensure a Derby play off game



Bit like when we let you score 40 to stay in SL 07

7th, dobbins will possibly get 4th, with hudds and leeds 5th and 6th

Looking at the remaining fixtures I think we'll probably finish on 28 points which is a massive 4 wins more than last year. Real progress with agar's team

No chance Jake, Leeds & Hudds play each other next week, so i think it will become a lot clearer

The gutting thing about all this IMO is that Saints are in trouble with Pryce and Eastmond out and Leeds aren't in great form either, so given that we've ground results out this season to get to 4th, we should have been pushing for 3rd as we're really only missing Long and O'Meley as absolutely pivotal players (no disrespect to Moa and Calderwood but they are players we should be able to cover, particularly Moa where we've got adequate depth in forward cover). I don't know where we'll finish. Fortunately for us, Bradford are in freefall and Wakefield don't look anything special, so we should make the 8, but we'll need to raise our game x100 to have a chance of winning a game in them.

The derby could well tell us who will finish 5th and 6th.

I don't like the look of those fixtures the way we're playing at the moment. Rovers will out-enthuse us in the derby if our last performance and theirs are anything to go by (let's hope they're not).

Can't see us beating Wigan, Warrington or Leeds. We never play well in London, but I'd expect us to scrape a win. Crusaders should be a banker at home, but they're just beat Leeds at Headingley (I think).

Best case scenario (in my opinion) is 3 from 6. It's not beyond the bounds of possibility (though it is quite unlikely) that we'll lose all six.

If Leeds are on a comedown after a Challenge Cup win the week before and if they're already guaranteed a 3rd or 4th place then their minds may be elsewhere.

We have the toughest run in of the teams around us, though.

I can see rovers and leeds picking up 8 to 10 points each, us 2 to 4 and hudds 8 to 10

If Wire and Leeds reach the final you'll win your last 4 games

1 Wigan 36 w w w w w w finish 48 - 1st
2 Warrington 32 l l l w l w finish 36 - 3rd
3 St Helens 28 w w w w w w finish 38 - 2nd
4 Hull 26 w l l w w w finish 34 - 4th
5 Leeds 25 w w l w w l 33 - 5th
6 Huddersfield 23 - l w w l w w - 31 6th
7 Hull K R 23 - l w w w l w - 31 7th

And whoever wins Cas v Wakey this week finishin 8th


Wigan have a big say having to play everyone but Saints , Game v Leeds & Wire will be crucial (praying for them for cup final)

Irrespective of where we finish I can't see us winning a play off game away from home or against Leeds, Wigan, Warrington, Saints.

Has wolfie hacked your account again?

The derby game is absolutely crucial now imo. If we win we'll be 5 points clear of Rovers, all but ending their chances of finishing 4th. However if they win, they will close the gap to just 1 point and with the remaining fixtures they've got, I'd fancy them to clinch 4th.
