All very simple really. Beat the teams below us, match the slip-ups with upsets against teams above us and we'll hit 50:50 and in all likelihood make the eight.



Weird fixture list this year - already played all the big guns at home, Hull excepted. Makes it harder to see us picking up many unexpected points so maintain consistency against the lower half is all the more crucial. Only picked up two wins in seven against teams above us, and all but one of those were at home.

you havent taken account of the full weirdness of the season, so I forecast we will get the 50:50 you forecast, but by beating all those top half teams away from home and losing to all those around and below us at home. Welcome Chris Coulby.

As an "interested neighbour" I would suggest you have a far better than 50/50 chance of making the play offs. Of the teams below you only HKR have a credible shot at overhauling you, even then they have to beat you at Odsal to make it a contest.



I would be quite surprised if you are not in the play offs this year, but likely a tough away tie (suspect you might fancy Leeds if they finish fifth again - I have a sneaky feeling that could come to pass).

Plus am I wrong in thinking that we have one of the best away records this season....Bring on the play-offs

I would be interested to see the pre-season predictions again. You've certainly exceeded my expectations, while London have disappointed. Saints currently a bit lower than predicted but I expect tham to climb.

To make the eight this year, considering the injuries, the finances, etc would be a phenominal acheivement.

If I get time I'll look for a league standings prediction thread, I'm sure there is one

Looking at the table right now, a 50:50 win loss record is only good enough for 9th/10th, due to the weakness of this year's bottom four. Just to hit that mark we're going to have to win an away game for every home game we drop. And looking at our fixture list, I wouldn't be shocked if we've won our last game on the road this year. Big effort needed to make the eight, regardless of the two points tonight. Three points dropped to Salford may well prove costly.

What may help is we play Rhinos on 18th 2 days after Exiles game. If they have a lot of players playing across both squads it might be a game we can pinch. 2 days rest and having to play again would be very difficult.

I'm suprised you made a prediction without showing some graphs to prove your point!

You have got to be joking. Have you seen Leeds play recently. We would be lucky to have anyone in the international team!!!

Maybe Macca owes the Bulls a favour so don't be suprised at 4-6 being in the Team!
