Er, I am not sure,but you could be right.

I agree with both bits. I also agree with the person who said that Rovers are too structured and predictable and that everything seems to have to be a training ground move with a lack of off the cuff rugby.
I'd say Saints are still the ultimate entertainers, some of their play is sensational and the fact they still produce it with kids is remarkable.
Then you have teams who could be called entertaining but a better word for me is expanisive. Castleford and Crusaders prime examples, teams who play with no fear but have a success ratio of 50/50. Whether this is entertaining or frustrating is down to personal preference.
Sports all about playing to your best assets, with no half back pairing and a pack which is much better than the backs, the way Hull play ATM is the most effective way.

Rovers blessed in both departments this season then. Entertaining rugby, and, according to Vella in the HDM today:"I don't think Wigan will go on and win the Grand Final. I think we will."

| I think the playoffs are wide open. Seriously.
I firmly believe we're gonna have a derby in the playoffs, so that'll put one of us in the next round. We have both proven that we can beat the sides who are left, and I don't think it is such an unrealistic proposal to say that on of the four in places 5-8 could reach the GF.

I applaud your optimism, and agree there will be a derby play-off. In the event that FC win that one (which won't happen), I can't see us going to Wigan, Warrington or Leeds and winning, seeing that they'll all have done the double on us. An outside chance vs Saints maybe. I'm not quite getting where your expectation that a team finishing 6th or 7th will get to Old Trafford from. Wigan were missing 10 players last week and still won easily away from home. Warrington are an excellent side. Saints are likely to get 2nd. Leeds are 3 times champions and now they've lost out today will redouble their efforts to get something from the season. All these teams have better squads, better coaches (arguable in Potter's case perhaps) and far better recent play-off/cup experience than any of Huddersfield, FC, Rovers or whoever finishes 8th. Don't get it.

Pmh this isn't funny anymore mate.
They are real people with real problems in the world and you've opened a account pretending to be mentally handicapped.
Very inappropriate.

You are right,but Wigan are going to be very tough to beat,and Saints are beginning to fire up as well.
On our day though,both Hull clubs can do the biz I reckon.
