White Knight Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Ok folks, don’t shoot me down on this because it is only one game at a time but there’s a lot of talk about our tough run in. Yesterday’s win enabled us to get one foot in the play offs, but the higher we finish the better our chances. So my predictions are as follows. Toronto - already qualified. Knights - Barrow away win, Toronto away lose, Fev home win, Leigh away lose, Halifax away win. Total points 37 Toulouse - Halifax away win, Widnes away win, Batley home win, Dewsbury home win, Fev away lose. Total points 38 Leigh - Swinton home win, Rochdale away win, Widnes home win, Knights home win, Toronto away lose. Total points 38 Fev - Dewsbury away win, Swinton home win, Knights away lose, Batley away win, Toulouse home win. Total points 36 Bradford - Toronto home lose, Barrow away win, Dewsbury away win, Sheffield home win, Barrow away win. Total points 33 Sheffield - Widnes home win, Halifax away lose, Barrow home win, Bradford away lose, Swinton away lose. Total points 28 So there you have it. WK’s predictor thinks we will finish fourth. But sport wasn’t played on paper! 5 wins and we will finish second. Up the fantastic Knights. Beer and York Knights. Proof the God loves us and wants us to be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaxbyKnight Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 There has to be a chance Toronto will start to rest players having already won the league, so much depends on how strong a team they put out for the rest of the season, especially against, Bradford, Leigh and us. I hope, for the integrity of the competition they play their strongest team every week, but I'll be very surprised if they do. 4th would be good, give us a home game in the play off first round, but if we finish anywhere in the top 5, I'll be delighted. We've had a great season just by being in the top half of the table, anything now is a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we'll be more competitive at home. Fev were very, very good in both games so here's hoping for you to have an off day and us to be another 9/10 game.

Fev are clearly not invincible, I'm sure that's an "8" in their lost column. I expect this will be yet another cracking match and may the better side win. When POR reviews his investment portfolio it's always there in the small print, "Past performance is no guarantee of future results." Very prudent these finance types!

We've had a great season just by being in the top half of the table, anything now is a bonus. It's a difficult one for them to manage as they as everyone but 'Fax has 2 weekends off before the end of the season and momentum counts for alot of things, they are used to training day in day out and with 3 home games in a row after Bradford, logistics wise they have to keep their discipline with training. Will they go back to Manchester or see out the season in Canada especially when all of their playoff games are likely to be in Toronto. If in Canada until early October some of the players aren't used to it, it might affect them mentally if they have new borns etc. They don't have a huge squad, it's not like they have an academy or reserve team so can see them making small changes but it will be to rest the dinosaur big wages players like Ashton Sims and Jon Wilkin etc. Plus players on 1 year deals playing for contracts which happens alot in the part time teams can do funny things. The likes of Marcus Stock is out of contract in October unless a deal is agreed he can't afford to have a bad game if selected, alot of players will step up with it being Toronto, Fev took them close over there. Widnes last week were in the lead with under 10 to go with some interesting refereeing decisions allowing Toronto momentum, we will see as the season draws to a close but I wouldn't be surprised if Toronto didn't win all of their games in the regular season.

We (Fev) were probably playing our best rugby of the season around the time of those 2 games and have been a bit up and down since, and if we can lose at home to Dewsbury and Barrow then York away is certainly no cakewalk.
