| IF you had to pick one, what would you choose?
For me, it's has to be the challenge cup. I want Sinny to lift that trophy.

Had this generation won a CC already then the easy and obvious answer would be GF. Would be nice though for them to complete the set. After all they've won, it would be a bit annoying to see other people go "ahh but they never won the CC", which is a bit ridiculous as it's not everyday players will retire with 5/6 GF Rings and a couple of WCC wins to look back on, that anybody else would snap your hand off for that list of achievements.
If we can get back into form by the time the semis take place then I'd say this is our best shot of winning it since we lost to Hull in 2005.

| I would always say GF,its the biggest prize in our club game by some distance now. of course it would be great to see the lads lift the CC after so many failed attempts but always the title for me

| GF for me. Can reflect on the win all winter plus there's a WCC to look forward to. The cup's lost amidst summer fun of all varieties and come September when the play offs start it's forgotten.

I want us to win the Cup, I'm sick of spending a small fortune to go to the final only to come away disappointed again.
But I do want us to win the Grand Final too, however I've already been there when we've done that.
Mind you I want us to win every game that we play.

| Grand Final without question. No comparison. Would rather win WCC than Challenge cup.

| Grand final that's where it's at. Like asking would you rather have a commonwealth gold medal or Olympic gold. No contest.

| No chance Gotcha! I ain't having that!
The only time a wcc win would be on par with a challenge cup final victory is if it was in the Aussies backyard.

| Still the GF for me, as much as I would like to see some of our golden generation win the Cup and complete the collection.
Linked to what others have written above:
1) I would rather not get to the final if we're going to lose. I have seen all the CC final defeats I care to thank you! The many GF wins have more than soothed the pain, but as a day out it has become a bit monotonous. Sort of Hope-train-pub-stadium-lose-train.
2) WCC stays 3rd of 4 in my estimation. It is nice to win, and it's a nice reward for winning the league the previous year. But I would only promote it if we were to beat the Aussie champions at their best. Doesn't have to be in their back yard. But they're always a bit underdone, frequently have key players missing etc. Their problem, but it's hard to give it the same prestige, all IMO of course.

| If we make the Challenge cup final, I can easily see Leeds make a good fist of reaching the Grand final also! One final can provide the impetus to reach the other.

| Going against the flow here but I still really appreciate the Challenge Cup. We go down every year as a matter of course and love it as a day out.
We've not seen Leeds win since 1999 and only once in the last 35+ years. For most of us '99 was the last time we saw Leeds lift silverware at Wembley and there's now a whole generation who haven't.
We've seen the boy's win the GF 6 times in the last decade - it's time to add the CC to their list of winners medals.
