On current form, you're paying us the greater compliment.

Would not want to play Cas - I think this could be their year.

Amazing team spirit and in Clark the best player in SL

Re Clark, I'd tend to agree. He's shown his class regardless of the quality of the opposition he's faced and I'm struggling to think of another player of whom that can be said. Must surely get the MOS vote if he carries on in this vein?

Just watch the Cas v Wigan game and comparing Cas to Leeds (on current form), Cas look the better team.

Widnes (or Bradford, but I really can't see that happening) in the semi would be my choice as I believe they'd offer the best chance of us getting to Wembley.

I am absolutely not counting any chickens (especially with our current form) but how good would a Leeds v Cas final be?

In order to achieve that potential scenario I'd like Bradford/Warrington (preferably Bradford

)

would prefer the Wire and obviously a Leeds v Cas Final.

PS is O`Loughlin (sp) the new "Tampax" player ???

Desperately hoping cas and Leeds are kept apart and meet in the final .

Not bothered who we play. Think people are getting over excited with Cas good win yesterday but when we are on form and firing we are still the best team in the comp.
W
Think we will draw Warrington and play Cas in final.

Not particularly fussed who we meet ATM as we have 8 league games between now and the Semis and god know whose form will be good/bad going into that weekend.

Is that so you can beat us in the final?

I'd rather lose to widnes in the semi than play cas in the fnal and lose.

Widnes, Wire and Cas are better sides at the moment. Widnes gives us the best chance of the final, we deal with that if we get there.

Ah well, a small club gets a nice day out at Wembley then.

We're 9 weeks away from the semi-final and 12 weeks from the final, I think we need to relax about getting beat by anybody, when our form could (hopefully) return at some point during that stretch.

Pay back time

Worst possible scenario out of all this is losing.....to cas.......in the final.

That must be avoided at all costs, they'd dine out on that for the next 50 years, we'd never live it down.

If cas play their semi first and win, we should throw the game against warrington and lose.

good draw for the game, having a side in the final who hasn't been to wembley in over 20 years.

as has been said, a long time till semi finals.more than enough time to get our form back and a lot of things can happen regards injuries etc.. good draw on the face of it though IMO.

Correct.

It's going to be a very tough game against the wire but as others have said form can change massively in 8 weeks and with Aiton, Burrow etc back things could be closer to our early season form than they are right now

We will have all of our currently injured players back for this game so i fancy that we will give them a far better game than we did last week at their place

Some of our best semi-final performances have come when we've been underdogs.

Hopefully we can get back to playing like we were before the magic weekend. People were talking about the double. It Could still happen but let's just make sure we knock warrington the f**ck out of the cup this year.

When was the last time we were underdogs in a semi-final? Surely must be over 12 years.

As for having all our players back. There is plenty of time for more to be injured. So it kind of works both ways.

2012 surely when we beat Wigan at Hudds. They'd put 50 past us at Headingley only a month or so before and people were talking about cricket scorelines beforehand.

You must have a different interpretation of underdog. Underdog would be defined by most, as expected to lose by the majority.

Bradford against Warrington today would be an underdog, Leigh at Leeds, and Keighley at Widnes. The one you said no way.

And we were. We were struggling in 5th place again, Wigan were 1st and had won 14 of their last 15 games and battered us with most of their forwards missing only 6 weeks earlier. The majority definitely thought a Wigan win on that day.....and most by a comfortable margin.

We might not have been as massive underdogs as Leigh were on Friday, but underdogs all the same.
