A number of posts have commented that our current style of rugby is less entertaining than under Paul Cullen. I really don't remember when this entertainment was on display, save that game at home to Leeds when Rau pinched the ball and Wigan at home when they had 11 players on the field. It was for the great majority of the time - dull.
Anyway I'll settle for winning rugby. Maybe when we've won back to back Grand Finals I'll allow myself to call for a more expansive approach.

Not if we consistently finish bottom, we may find ourselves dropped down a league. Plus I was only joking

Union is played by people who close airports after a bit of snow, League is played by people who would go and have a snowball fight with a 747

Still impossible, think about it...... 
(I'm being more than pedantic here, but my gaffer always moans at me for not calling it by the right name)

We did play some very good rugby under PC. Many games v Saints (although we lost them all ) and stellar performances against Leeds, Bulls (notably play-offs a couple of years ago ) come-back against Hull at home when they hardly got into our half of the pitch in the second half, Widnes away when we sent them down, several games against the Pies and many more. We simply lacked the ability to nail teams when it counted.

We were never going to win a GF under Cull I admit, but at least there was some exciting stuff. High points were the Leeds play-off win, the 2005 season and just about any game vs Saints (only now can I call that a high point). The match winning try vs Hull in 2005 was one of the highlights of my rugby (watching) career. Simply awesome.
