I don't agree we should choose either Cup or League. We should be going to win every game now on in to build momentum and form. When the injured return they will be fresh and they should inject energy at a time when other sides may be losing theirs.

Yep a good cup run is all we have left. We won't make the top 4, so the top 8 is a waste of time. Likewise, we won't be in the million pound game, so forget the league and let's get back to Wembley

I'd say beating a SL team in any competition is pretty much the same confidence-wise. That's why I want us to perform in the cup and play well. It isn't a case of you can just decide which games you're going to play and which you're not. If you go into the cup game with that attitude it can have a negative effect on the following SL game.

Perform well in the cup game we'll do ok in the league game following it, which is the priority.

Actually it is a case of that, as the question asked was which would you rather win, which by definition is pick and choose.

As the super league game comes first doesn't that completely flip your point on its head?

Ah, I see we've got our wires crossed a bit here, I was meaning really that I don't want us to sack off the cup game as I think doing that has a negative effect on the game after it. Having re-read the OP I can see how my first post was confusing now as if I had to choose I'd choose the 2 points in the league. Just that we can't afford to be "weak" in the cup game.

I think the notion that Leeds are the only team suffering injuries is a fallacy - look at Wigan the other night they were missing:

Tomkins x 2, Manfredi, Williams, McIlorum. O'laughlin, Farrell - that is half a side of key players

I think it will be "break".

We'll probably do a HKR circa 2015....with similar results

What?

Lose 50-0 at Wembley?

I agree entirely with that. Just think the two points this week is vital.

imo the rhinos have two realistic and achievable goals at present as things stand currently

i'm not bothered what so ever about which club has got how many players out injured blah,blah,blah
as it's ultimately up to each and every club to react to the situation that they are in and to deal with it as best they can

however i do want us to win next weeks league game at the giants and to claim the vital two league points on offer as our quest at the moment is to make up ground on the clubs above us and to at least secure a top 8 finish,that is ultimately goal number 1

goal number 2 is to treat each round of the challenge cup as our only realistic chance of winning silverware this season

and has already been alluded to,we will have some of our injured players returning to action during the latter rounds of the challenge cup

so winning this trophy is not impossible so why not treat this competition as this seasons goal ?

at the seasons outset,and as there are only three trophies on offer to each sl club, then surely all sl sides would be very happy to win a trophy and to ultimately keep their super league place intact for the following season would they not?

i would remind everyone that only ONE sl side actually won a trophy last season and that
Warrington Wolves,Catalans Dragons,Wigan Warriors,Hull FC,St Helens,Widnes Vikings,Castleford Tigers,Salford Red Devils,
Wakefield Wildcats,Hull K R and Huddersfield Giants did not

so how bad must they have all felt whilst the rhinos lifted the treble?

I did state 'similar' ...so not 'exactly'.....I'll go for 55-6
