you have failed to point out where I said "it wasnt his choice"

however he could have had a ticket policy etc....

What?

I know it wasn't his choice.

But your response to my post suggested you thought he'd planned to play hull kr.

You said ''that plan didn't work with hull kr'' suggesting he had planned to play them.

He didn't plan it, we played them becvause they came 4th.

Wigan looked *terrible* on Sunday. I mean, really, embarrassingly bad. Hull KR should beat them comfortably.

I hope they dont, Wigan v Saints will be a cracker if Leeds choose Hudds/Catalans.

Wigan = Five drives then (if they've still got the ball, which they usually haven't) Leuluei high kick to the corner for Richards to outjump someone. Typical Noble team, but without the benefit of Biff. Yawn. They really don't have anything that should trouble Leeds, or indeed Saints.

Bloody hell, I bet The Undertaker some tackling!

Yet they have beaten both this season.

I wouldn't get too cocky about Wigan being easy beats.

What about Kane and The Great Khali ?

I don't know, I'm not geeky enough to still watch it sorry.

Now imagine a WWE pack?......

8. Big Show
9. John Cena
10. Khali
11. Kane
12. Undertaker
13. HHH

Not very mobile, and I can imagine a few penalties for grapple tackles.

Point taken. But not in the playoffs, and not away from home. And I'm judging on current form. I couldn't believe how bad they were against Cas, in a knockout game.

If it turns out the choice is between Wigan and Huddersfield, I'd be confident of beating either (though obviously not 100% confident) but think Hudds would give Saints a tougher game and would send them to Knowsley Rd.

say my piece once more.....we as top team in playoffs should pick bottom team in playoffs..... irrespective of who it is, if weve beaten them, what attendance they will bring, etc etc....end of!!

I'd have Mysterio at hooker, Cena at 13 and HHH a replacement 2nd Rower. Mark Henry anyone?

^^ This ^^

A Wigan / Stains derby will take a lot out of both sides physically, and I think Wigan pose a threat to us in a one off game.

Picking KR would give them more motivation, as they'd think we see them as an easy touch following last weekend.

I dont think either Huddersfield or Catalans would be as much of a problem.

Anyone else struggling to see either of the two home teams this weekend picking up a win?

Rovers are scratching around at the bare bones of a squad and looked demoralised at the end of Friday's game, and Huddersfield appear to be running on empty since Wembley.

Wouldn't be surprised to see both Wigan and Catalans progress, in which case I'd take Catalans in a heart beat out of the two.

I believe if Hull KR had finished third, they would have beaten Stains in the first round of playoffs.

Our score over Hull KR showed we were great in attack and very, very solid in defence. In my opinion, the other games over the first weekend were littered with mistakes and the Giants, Wildcats and Tigers didnt do themselves any favours and made their "very ordinary" opposition look good.

There is the theory that the Giants knew they would live to fight another day... As for Hull KR, they tried their best but that wasnt good enough on the night.

I don't think they'll be demoralised - if it had been their full team maybe so, but they'll be positive in that they have some very good players to return for that game.

I think that's a 50/50 game.



I think Huddersfield will beat Catalans by 20 points to be honest.

Khali would be able to run about 5 yards at the very most. Therefore, wouldn't right wing outside Gidley be a better option?

Unfortunately, I have to agree with you there, should catalans get through

Let Wigan play Saints should they get through, what a huge game that would be... Wigan would have nothing to lose and it'd hopefully take something out of both teams whoever got to the grand final.

So nobody thinks the strategy will be to consult the entrails of a chicken?
How disappointing.

I thought it might be sticking pins in a doll of James Graham, or in the lack of one a best likeness. I propose that ginger kid from Rugrats as an alternative.

I cant believe they have come up with such a system. Leeds should declare now that they will pick the team that finished lowest in the table, regardless of who it is.

The real point is that they shouldn't be picking at all..... Welcome to another complete and utter mockery (alongside the franchise system) of the game brought to you courtesy of the rfl and sky.... hoorah!!!

You still watch it though dont you?

I do



I dunt stop me thinking it is ridiculous tho.
