Warrington didn’t make it at all in 2011'"


Saints finished top and didn't make the final at all, I think it was 2005

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround." An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg



Quote: kaybenbull "Since 1998 when the playoffs started has any team that finished top not made the final at 1st attempt?'"



Huddersfield 2013? Lost both I think

Rlfans - the most toxic rugby league forum in the world:



On the flip side, wasnt there one season where Bradford languished around 10th/11th all season then found a bit of form and scraped 5th on the last day and went on to win the Grand Final?

"I have this system where I support England first, then the other Home Nations, then the rest of the Commonwealth, then the rest of the World, then France.":



Under the current format, the only team finishing 1st not to make it at the first attempt was Wigan in 2000. They then got to the Grand FInal on their second chance but lost to St Helens.

St Helens v Warrington - St Helens

Wigan v St Helens - Wigan

Salford will get hammered twice IMO. Play offs are a different beast to regular season games. Wigan to win a tight one at Saints. Saints to empty the tank beating Warrington and have nothing left for the final.'"

However I do hope you go one better than us in 2017 and go on to win it all for the underdogs.

Ah but we didn't get hammered last week so it's impossible for us to get hammered twice in the playoffsicon_wink.gif Whilst everyone is entitled to their opinions there have been some pretty disengenous comments made on here about Salford so I'm taking great pleasure in revisiting a few posts.... icon_biggrin.gifANCE:

Tell you what, I'm loving seeing the Salford Reds arising. What a turnaround in fortunes and what a club. It's a shame there is no real backing yet, but hopefully they can take this season forward into next year, establish themselves as contenders and get the crowds the club deserves.

Can they win the Grand Final? Can they? But can they really? It's adding an unexpected mystique to the Play Offs. I fully expected Warrington to be sat where Salford are now, but Salford look capable of causing an upset in the second semi final now. As a Saints fan I will be dreading the Salford game if we end up losing tonight. I didn't think I'd be saying that a week ago.

I'm allowed to change my mind. Salford have proved me wrong, I'm not shy of admitting that.
