| 3rd would be better than 4th as there is a possibility we could end up with club call.

| For Huddersfield to win the league is a big achievement. Unfortunately a lot of the reasons for them being league leaders will count against them in the play-offs. Even Wigan seem to have finally worked out that in order to win gold winning the heats is irrelevant.

I think Wigan were very keen to finish 1st.....that is until it looked most likely that Leeds would finish 4th and they then 'conveniently' had a slump

| Quote Gotcha="Gotcha"This obsession with believing Huddersfield will implode is getting embarrassing now.
They have been growing for a few years now and learning. They are top of the tree at present quite simply because they have been the best team this year.
Personally I would rather play Wigan, for the exact reason I don't want to play Huddersfield. Leeds have the beating of Wigan, just Like Huddersfield have the beating of us.'"
Agree re Hudds. They look the real deal at this point.
I still have no preference when it comes to playoff opponents. To be the man you have to beat the man.

No Nathan Brown now ... Anderson doesn't seem to tolerate backsliding.

I haven't actually said that Huddersfield will implode. In fact I said it could be their year. What I was asking for opinions about, was that would Huddersfield be a better option than Wigan or Warrington away ? The implode that you mention hasn't happened, what they do lack is big match experience in grand finals and that possibly is a factor in Leeds` favour.

How much big match experience did Leeds have in 2004? There isn't many teams that can match Saints big match experience, how did that go?
You have to start somewhere. Hunger, desire, and work ethic, other than ability, are what makes you winners or losers.

I think it's warranted until they produce the goods in knock out football.
They have been consistent all year, but as time had it crumbled against Warrington in fine style in the CC.
They have a massive monkey to get off their back (as Leeds fans we could relate to that for some time). They are finally equipped and this year is all set-up and they have a great chance of competing in their first GF and first possible SL title.
The above paragraph says it all, covered with 'chances' and 'possibles'. Let's see what they produce when it really matters.......

Don't think you can use the CC as an example as they whipped our butts in the prior round.
They may have been poor the last couple of years in the playoffs but they have had some good results in the past. They thrashed warrington and were one game away from the final in 2010.

I can happily use that example, as its their most recent failing in knock out football.
They did destroy us as they have done all season. That's not the point I was trying to make......
One game away back in 2010? Wow.
