9th August 3pm at the shay.

We are no doubt playing well , but in the real world I think the odds of qualifying are stacked against us, though I do think we can win around 3 games and upset a couple of teams dreams.

That's a tough start but will give us some pointers for the next games, I think Widnes will finish top with possibly KR next, depending on how they go in the cup, ifthey get to the final it will be a tough few weeks for them.

Id like to think we will win but im really nervous already!

LOL - if we win 3 games, we'll almost certainly be in the "million pound" game.

The Widnes pack isnt too cracky, I think if we can get on top of their pack we have a chance.

EXCLUSIVE: Our first home #Super8s fixture will be against @Halifax_RLFC. (Sunday 16 Aug at 3 pm) Full fixture list to be revealed at 10:15am

The piece on the Halifax site says next Sunday, which I make 2nd August, but the tweet on the same site says 9th. Confused.com

its been sorted now if u check back

Best possible start. We don't want to be playing Widnes at home in match 5 if we aren't doing so well as the crowd may be dire. This way the anticipation on day one should make it a good attendance.

Awful opening fixtures as we face the two toughest opponents straight up.

Was hoping for Sheffield first as it's our best chance of a win and to face Hull KR & Widnes the last two so we could spring a shock as they'll likely be qualified by then. We'd then be looking at winning one of Dulls, Leigh, Wakey & Salford to get that 3rd win and hopefully 5th spot !!

I guess there's mixed opinions



In any event - we're in the top four. We're in (in my opinion) the most exciting competition of the three super 8 comps. What a time to be alive!!
