I hope we play you and Smith puts Huddersfield against Wigan, Huddersfield had a easy game , where as you had to fight tooth and nail for the win. That means as the game will be on Thursdays you will not have had as much rest. Its a no brainer really icon_smile.gif

Leeds have just gained momentum in a spectacular way.
Sitting on your backside this weekend is no preparation for playing the league leaders and the reigning champions.

Warrington don't have a good choice.

I wouldn't be suprised to them flip a coin, but if they make a conscious choice, they'll pick leeds as the lowest ranked team, the one who had the hardest game and the team they thrashed 2 weeks ago.

I think personally i'd stick to picking the lowest placed team left which by virtue of the Pies week 1 win is us.
IF ST's had won i could see Wire sending them to the pies for obvious reasons but i think Wire will pick us.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif



If I was wire I would take Huddersfield.

I think the biggest error we made when having club call was not to play Wigan at home. On your own ground with the fans baying for blood, it sways the ref. Leaving them to a GF on a nice big wide pitch we gave up that against the best League side.

Take Huddersfield now on your own ground and put them under pressure they will not feel at the GF.

Is a tough call. Buck the tend and pick the league leaders or pick the play off specialists?

Leeds should be battle hardened, everyone else has had a week of. 6 days should be enough recovery, Ijust hope jjb and delany can be fit

We weren't good in the 2nd half last night i'd agree, but dazzling attacking play is rarely what wins games at this stage of the play-offs. If it's Wire again next week i'd expect it to be a very different game to last Saturday.

Club call is a poisoned chalice. If Warrington lose to either Leeds or Huddersfield they will have made the wrong call when the after match inquest starts. What everyone assumes is that they would clearly have beaten the other side had they picked them instead! My opinion is that momentum appears to be more valuable in this play-off system & not sure the week off does those sides any good to be honest.

I think the wigan huddersfield result in week one has scuppered leeds chance of retaining the title after watching last nights game.

I don't think they have 2 big games left in them. 1 maybe. But wigans win meant leeds got the tougher assignment in week 2. Hull or catalans (who leeds would have played if hudds won in week 1) wouldn't have been easy but it wouldn't have been as draining mentally and physically as last night.

In this playoff format i've never see as tough a game as last night in week 2. That was final eliminator intensity. Instead of just having one more game for the title after that toughness, leeds still have 2. If they'd won in week 1 they'd probably be underdone for next week.

I hope i'm wrong, but if they can pull it off next week i fancy the final will be a step too far, probably against wigan the old adversary.

To be honest I think it is a no brainer as far as Wire are concerned. Do you pick the side you put 40 points on a couple of weeks ago....or the form team who scored a record breaking win on Thursday?

Even folk from that side of the Penines can work that out! Sadly, despite last nights heroics, and whilst i don't think they will run in another 40 points next week, we have still too many defensive gaps and daft penalties to realistically expect to turn out at Old trafford.

A Wire/Hudds game could be a fitting end to this RL season

It's been fun.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44480.jpg



Personally after last night I'd pick Leeds, not because I see them as weak, far from it, I'd be more nervous knowing what you're capable of.
I'd pick Leeds because they've played a day later in a game of double the intensity and have picked up a couple of injuries and having a half back who looks like he's playing on injections.

You only have 4 days to prepare tactically and 6 days physically.
