Fev1983 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Toronto Toulouse Fev Leigh York That means we could play Toulouse away, Toronto away, back to Toulouse away and then back to Toronto away for the final, a 4 week party for anyone who can afford it. That’s loads of airmiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Pike Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 More than happy to finish fifth as we have imo 50/50 games against York, Toulouse and seriously Swinton at home this Sunday which im off to and envisage a cracking game with a narrow win for us .Think we’ll put a big score over Batley though.

Monkeymagic22 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Toronto Toulouse Leigh Fev York Not bad for us as we’ll get a home match and avoid excessive travelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finish 5th = No home games finish 4th = 1 home game, the first one, and that’s it. finish 3rd = Could work out that the final would be at POR (highly extreme set of circumstances). finish 2nd = Same as third. We have to beat the best away to prove ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Phil Loxton Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Im not thinking past Swinton who have beaten Toulouse away and were unlucky at Leigh last week.One of the form sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably you mean Swinton and Batley but Swinton have beaten Toulouse, drawn with Bradford and lost by a point at Leigh recently, that's the level they are playing at. Batley have been disappointing this season but you never expect an easy game at the Mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what that means? If we can't beat Dewsbury and Barrow at home we don't deserve to be in the play-offs either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fevnut Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I think there's some wild optimism here! I can't see us getting higher than 4th. And to do that we would have to improve hugely on our performances over the last couple of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamescolin Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Take each game as it comes. There are no easy ones so the coach will take every thing into account and pick the best side for each match. His ability is there for all to see and he will definitely weigh the pros and cons for each encounter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep going back until you see the heading. If you still can't find it I will post the sequel on this forum. I haven't done it already as I was criticised for back pedalling last time I did it.

jamescolin Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 It was started by Money Magic 22 on the 7th June. Page two to three gave the actual sequence in order of how they would be played. Hope that helps Fev 83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
