Looking like 8-10 weeks out for Asiata. Massive blow but with a couple of blank weekends maybe only missing six games.

Superleague +

Cheers. I’ll pop on there.

Good on Davy Litten saying he doesn't want rovers to win next week despite his best mate and his cousin plying for them. True B&W

The second half of the season will see us play nine home games with five away. After this month (June) ends we only play outside the city twice more (Wigan, St Helens) with eight of our last eleven fixtures at our place. Even by our disjointed standards in recent years that's an uneven fixture list!

Without wishing to get too carried away (this is Fc after all) I reckon eight more wins will see us in a play-off spot, we might even get away with seven. The two hardest games remaining are the 'big two' away, but even if we were to discount those that still leaves us looking at eight from twelve (favourable) games.


There's a lot of 50/50 games to play, with all of the mid-table pack still to come here. How we fare in those games will likely decide where we finish come September. Go really well and it's not impossible we could end up third!! Go really badly in these fourteen games and we could still end up ninth!! There's still an enormous amount to play for, but these past two victories mean we have it in our hands to clinch a, frankly, unexpected play-off spot.


Of course, us being us, no way will it be as straightforward as that! it never is with Fc

I'm thinking you'll maybe need less points this year to get in the 6 as there are more teams beating each other and only really the top 2 looking better than those teams 3rd to 9th
