Interviews coming out of training suggest the team is still determined to fight to get into the playoffs until they are mathematically eliminated. With only a handful of games left while sitting six points out of the last playoff position their odds of making the post-season are against them.

They would need to win all four remaining games and the teams around them would need to lose favourably in order to get into the post-season.
Win now or play the future?
