Correct.

It's going to be a very tough game against the wire but as others have said form can change massively in 8 weeks and with Aiton, Burrow etc back things could be closer to our early season form than they are right now

We will have all of our currently injured players back for this game so i fancy that we will give them a far better game than we did last week at their place

Some of our best semi-final performances have come when we've been underdogs.

Hopefully we can get back to playing like we were before the magic weekend. People were talking about the double. It Could still happen but let's just make sure we knock warrington the f**ck out of the cup this year.

When was the last time we were underdogs in a semi-final? Surely must be over 12 years.

As for having all our players back. There is plenty of time for more to be injured. So it kind of works both ways.

2012 surely when we beat Wigan at Hudds. They'd put 50 past us at Headingley only a month or so before and people were talking about cricket scorelines beforehand.

You must have a different interpretation of underdog. Underdog would be defined by most, as expected to lose by the majority.

Bradford against Warrington today would be an underdog, Leigh at Leeds, and Keighley at Widnes. The one you said no way.

And we were. We were struggling in 5th place again, Wigan were 1st and had won 14 of their last 15 games and battered us with most of their forwards missing only 6 weeks earlier. The majority definitely thought a Wigan win on that day.....and most by a comfortable margin.

We might not have been as massive underdogs as Leigh were on Friday, but underdogs all the same.

Nope, Printer was right, underdog tag fit is perfectly in the semi final just two years ago.

,Bradford Beat Warrington five weeks ago. As Printer has said, Wigan put 50 on us several weeks before our semi.

Exactly, so he is correct.

Wigan were huge favourites that day.

But what if you get fresh injuries to players Wh are playing now? We've had a rough run lately with the blighters. Should make for a cracking game whatever 17 we both put out.

Quick tip off. It's not going to be at Huddersfield.

There's a slight conflict of interest between the competition sponsor and the stadium sponsor.

How about The Shay at Halifax? Capacity of about 14000 would ensure a full house and a good atmosphere.

We have a bit of an advantage there to be honest in terms of resting players (we also have Salford away the week before the Bradford one). Warrington vs Cas the week between the semis and final obviously stands out.
