If your going to win anything you have to beat the best teams at some point so if we get Fev or Leigh then so be it.

Fev are not one of the best teams this year.Widnes will do better than them.Squad and teams can change from season to season.Age and injuries can have an effect.Youngsters like kavanagh,Grady,Craven,Alex Brown,Jack Owens,Lunt,Houghton and others are a year older and top players.We have a great squad and I am confident.Maybe if beat leigh away some might take notice.

Whoooooooooooosh

Isnt it.

I'm debating how brilliant it would be if Leigh won the league! They moan more than anyone about the franchise system etc, even though the only thing they have achieved since it's inception is relegation so imagine them if they won the Championship and we got promoted... absolute bliss

Wow!! I was thinking EXACTLY the same thing this morning. Can't believe you've just put that.

Their board on here would meltdown - so would Arthur.

To be fair, Leigh would have been relegated anyway from SL in 2005. It was Widnes who took the plunge for the Dragons.

Leigh ought to be thankful that they weren't forced to be playing in the Championship One last season anyway!

im still struggling with that one. sets an interesting precedent. basically if you get relegated you can stay up, if you cry a lot.

Perhaps we moan about it more because we have stronger beliefs than you that achievement in sport should be sorted on the field of play and not in some dark,dank,smoke filled room in leeds by big fat men.

No crying by us about being relegated, we got what we deserved.
It wasn't our fault the owner of gateshead decided to pull the plug and close them down.

seriously? i remember your chairman crying about it an awful lot in the press.
same with the last franchise announcements.
that guy needs to man up

thats all well and good. but believe what you want, the rest of us will get on with using the system as it stands, rather than simnply wishing it was another way.

There was no 'crying' at all about the Gateshead situation, we were in a very fortunate position to stay up but that's it.

And, for what it's worth, it was the chief executive rather than the chairman who made the post-franchise comments.

Why you lot whining about drawing Catalan at home then? Bloody hypocrites!

Don't rule out Hunslet as a threat in the league

i agree. i think the hawks are serious contenders after promotion.

You need to be worried about hunslet and york! Arrogant

They will take some scalps this year. Decent side and very well drilled.

dont mock hunslet. i think our guys took them lightly today and they bitch slapped us.
bamboozling referee aside, we were awful but they got stuck in none the less really deserved the win.
dont write them off, you may just find it comes back to bite you.

What's arrogant about discussing teams you expect to challenge for the title?



Normally you whinge we ignore the league and on field operations!

HUNSLET HAWKS

Well smart , the answer to your question is [size=200=#FF0000NO[/size.
I dont recall any of us saying we would win the league. so do your research before you come on here attempting to cause arguments.
