Quote: Once were Loiners "While beating lower-placed teams gets you into the finals it doesn't make you a genuine competitor if you get cannot beat top teams. Every year somebody qualifies for the play offs purely through a good record against lower teams only to crash out as soon as they face a contender. You can win the Challenge Cup that way with luck in the draw, but you won't win the league that way, and while all wins are welcome, if we're serious about taking Sts on next year we have to be getting close this.'"
Agree. in the seasons when we've got to GF or indeed won them (which is most
) we've almost always given the tops teams those years real good games.
