Pure gold. When wire win it finishing one point above Wigan last year you're the best team by far and the LLS proves it according to your fans.

Wigan do it the next year yet it doesn't prove we're the best team in the league?


I mean I know as RL we are kind of programmed to be hypocrites, but this is just too good

Difference is we're losing our 'Briers, Morley and Hodgson' but still have our best player.

But to be slightly less biased for a moment, McIlorum's challenge was stupid and if he gets a season ending ban I wouldn't argue at all, he'd deserve it for an idiotic challenge.

Absolutely correct, we have won nothing since our last Challenge Cup victory in 2008 although have been to 4 grand finals and not finished outside the top 3 in our transitional period - not ba compared to some "bigger" clubs that had to cheat and break the salary cap to avoid relegation in their transitional phase

I always like to read a post with a cogent argument. Have you got one?

Nice one, back of the net!

Whilst I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiment, I'm pretty sure the argument that "you haven't won anything since your last trophy" could be equally applied to all teams?

Just been listening to BBC Radio Manchester and they played an interview from Friday night with Finch and he deserves some sort of punishment for what he came out with. Absolutely slated Child's decision and if this was football then he would be fined for his comments.

Stuart Fielden's comments on Sky weren't as bad, but were highly embarrassing.

Stu "glass jaw" Fielden made a show of himself all night. The way he reacted to being took off, his actions on the touch line and then a silly childish interview at the end made him look stupid!

Old Dirty Dog.

Nice mature ending there.

Hate to correct your tangent, but Leeds have little relevance as to who finishes top, as I originally said, and 2 consecutive fifth place finishes confirms that.

Now we're in the playoffs, it's a whole different matter, but I'm glad you got that off your chest.

Graham, Price, Eastmond out of Saints

I don't that Micky Mac is a thug, he plays the game hard, plays aggressive and these types every now and then will cross the line every now and then.

We'd kill for a player with his aggression at the moment. We've had our fair share of dirty/tough players over the years with the likes of sonny Nickle, Vila, hooper, cooper etc but teams need these players.

Vila that was the name I was looking for but had to settle on Hooper who was another one who could do the dirty when needed.

Vila was dirty and dumb with it ,some of the penalties he gave away used to annoy the hell out of me.
