It's crunch time now. The regular Super League season is over, and Wire's pathetic end to the campaign earned a measly 4th spot despite having an iron-cast grip on 2nd for most of the year. Still, the show must go on and Warrington face Castleford at the Halliwell Jones in the opening game of the playoffs, a must-win game with a loss ending the season there and then and killing any chances of Old Trafford.
