Huge month ahead. This block could define our season. Catalans at home, Hull away, Huddersfield home, Leeds away. If we can get McMeeken and Hamlin-Uele back for all four games and win three - including Hull - I'd wager we'll make playoffs. If we lose two including Hull, that's us done.
Huddersfield away Leeds at home, we've already been to Leeds twice in the league
Better to be talking about top six, than bottom two Think with all the injuries to main forwards ,and problems in the spine ,do not think we will make top 6 ,but very happy to finish in top 8 .Will /Could get shot down for this but think the way things are in the spine at presents ,all the other teams in the top 6 have better chance than us. First time that Wires have had there full spine on the field against Hull since Wembley and it was fast ,If/We have improved so much this season and we are playing some nice football that is great to watch It we improve again next year, we could make the top 6 with games to spare
I’m not sure of your up to date but we have Trueman and Lino who’ve looked threatening together and like a top 6 pairing (or thereabouts). Also, Ollie Russell is almost recovered from his hand operation so could even be available this or next week.
I think that puts us in a strong position in the half backs. Even assuming that Trueman hasn’t done anything major other than a few bangs to his shoulder.
As for the forwards, we are competing with teams around mid table with a makeshift forward pack. We are over next 1-4 games going to have a full pack to choose from with 2-4 coming back for last 8 games or so.
That to me puts us in a fairly strong position especially with Salford 2 x, Cas, Hudds and a couple of games with teams around us coming up.
