Quote: joeo "If he'd chosen Warrington that would have guaranteed a final appearance for one of the regulars. This way there's a chance of neither of the regulars getting there.
However the real reason for the Leeds choice I suspect is the reason Leeds some seasons ago made sure Wigan and Saints knocked hell out of each other in the other semi - more chance of whichever wins turning up at the final with bits missing.
But it could backfire. Didn't a club call once beat the caller? As Cronus said, Leeds could do it.'"
Warrington last year became the first club to lose after making the club call.
In 2009 Leeds beat Catalans and in 2010 St Helens beat Huddersfield.
