| Quote: mattsrhinos1978 "But errors and penalies are a reflection of a teams ability,any of the top 5 or 6 teams can confidently claim if they made no errors and gave no penalties away they'd overwhelm the opposition. If you were as good as you say you wouldnt be making the errors and if you were overwhelming teams you wouldnt need to give as many penalties away.
We could of done a lot of things different in the semi final but we didnt and fair play you beat us well, but im sure after we put 50 past you at your place it looked like there was nothing you could of done differant to stop us. Thats how it often looks when one team plays well and the other team plays poorly,our super 8's game at wakey being a prime example.
I do agree that you stack up well with cas,you seem to know how to deal with them whereas we look nowhere near being able to stop them so far.But imo to say no other team can live with you when your on is massively over rating a team that finished 15 points off top,only just won more than half there league games and only just squeezed into the top 4 on the last weekend of the league season.'"
Fair post. I'm confident that if we play to something like the best of our ability we will win, but we'll find out on Friday I guess.
I've argued with Cas fans who also say that the inconsistency and the manner of some of the defeats proves that we are not the real deal. I argue that it's all about what you do when it really counts. I think we have managed what has been at times a tricky campaign pretty well. You can't say we have had an injury crisis, but we have had several games where half a dozen plus players have been unavailable, and we played SL opposition all the way through the cup again. All you have to do is make the top four, and we've done that.

Yeah hopfuly we do find out friday because it will mean both teams have served up there best and we get a quality game.
Im not sure what you mean by real deal,if its being a pretty good side thats capable of winning super league then i would say you are the real deal,your results across the season and final league position would support that. If its being the best side in the comp that on there day no one else can live with then i dont think you are the real deal...Again,your results across the season and final league position would support that too.
You have managed to get yourselves into good position,albeit by the skin of your teeth,on a last weekend that couldnt of played out any better for you,playing before wigan against a weakend team. I just think its a bit of a stretch to be claiming to be so hard for other teams to live with when over 30 league games you'v only won 5 more than you'v lost,took quite a few hammerings and havnt been overly dominant in a lot of the games you'v won.

No team that has lost their final league game has made it to Old Trafford under the current format.... apparently. Castleford now have to overcome that statistic.
Two interesting games and no Wigan to add to their run of successive GF's. High probability IMO that a new name will be on the trophy this year - after the semis that could be a 100% certainty ..... then again could be yet another Leeds V St Helens which would be a wasted opportunity for the sport.

| It would be that as well.
From a total of 38 GF appearances Bradford, Leeds, St Helens and Wigan have accounted for 34 of them. The last new SL Era Champions were Leeds in 2004. It's about time the sport had another new name on it's biggest domestic prize.
If Leeds or St Helens are good enough they could win it (and arguably deservedly so), I just don't think they are or will in 2017 and I don't think that would be a bad thing for the sport.

| Just been reading on the cods board that a fair few of them are obtaining tickets outside their quota for other areas of HQ. If we can’t sell out without the presence of the SS for a winner takes all semi then that’s beyond disgraceful. Last thing we want is our home turf being turned into a replica of the Keepmoat.

I reckon about 90% of those sales will be from fans who live out of town and couldn't get to our club shop before general sale tomorrow despite trying to ring.

I don't quite get this bad for the sport if it is a Leeds v Saints final.
As a Cas fan, I obviously hope that we can get to the GF and happy to play Hull or Leeds.
However if it is a Leeds v Saints final, they will be both there on merit, why is that a bad thing?????

True for me, I actually live in Leeds and bought 6 Western Terrace tickets from their office. Hull's ticketing situation is abysmal really & needs to improve.

Best of luck with Bentham, been Hull's player of the year up until now.
Seriously though, wish we had him for our game instead of Child. Bentham is head and shoulders the best ref this year.

You're wrong there Dave. He didn't win anything at our awards night. He needs to try harder. Good luck on Thursday.
