| Quote: Stul "Look, seriously, the view that just because somebody plays for Wigan meaning they are the best in the business is twenty years out of date and your being so patronising didn't really make you look very good. Made you look rather like a twelve year old.
O'Loughlin is a decent player (my previous comments, slow, lack of creativity etc. would have been comparing him to a world class player) but if he was really any good, he would have some medals to show for it.
I am quite happy with Langley and Menzies, along with all the backrowers we have coming through, ahead of O'Loughlin.'"
...so by that definition Tomkins is no good either. And I think the same goes for Burgess. Interesting idea you have there. And for the record O'Loughlin does have medals, or for that matter, International caps (surely the best marker of whether he's rated amongst the best this coubtry has to offer or not!)
And as forIf O'Loughlin was a top player, he would have gone to a club where he would have stood a chance of winning them. He hasn't done this because he knows he wouldn't have got into those teams.'"
What a crock! And you are the one criticising someone else for not knowing the difference between fact and opinion! The mind boggles!

She left me after finding out I'd been sex texting another girl. Turns out it was actually a bloke as well who was 50. He was shocked though when he found out I'm not Vernon Kay.
Anyway back onb topic. I reckon we need to get into their forwards quickly and starve them of Field position (basically stop them scoring early) for the first 20 mins and then we'll be able to build from there.

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

It is also better than the 1st, 2nd and 3rd etc rounds. But you ultimately win the same at the end - the centre of a doughnut.
In fact, IMO, if my team are not gonna win the cup I would rather go out early rather than end up playing a few extra games that ultimately prove to be fruitless.

I think it is basically a prediction of how climatic conditions will develop in a specific area. HTH.

Have to disagree. This season is about showing progress after the dross of last year. A close defeat in the CC semi final against one of the better teams, a 6th place finish and one play off victory would represent a decent year.

Surely a longer run in the cup presents you with more opportunity to watch your team?

It also presents the situation where players could be getting burn-out at the business end of the season where it matters. All I am saying is that if my team did not win the Cup, I would rather go out early than play a few more fixtures before going out empty handed.
[iObviously[/i I would rather we won the thing!

Completely agree semi finals can take a lot out of teams due to the intensity of the game and its even worse getting beat in a final. I'd rather go out in the first round than be beaten at Wembley tbh. There were other factors but it didn't do Huddersfield any favours in the league and it was all a bit pointless given nobody remembers a runner up (except opposition fans using it as ammunition to gloat, another reason its better getting knocked out earlier). The timing of the cup is such that any big injuries can impact on the playoffs. If you end up winning the cup of course these issues become pretty insignificant, in fact judging by the comments from Wire fans before the Wigan game you'd think they'd won the double last season, they must have thought it was by one get one free (as with their players it would appear ).
