Nope. As mentioned on another thread, you deserved the win.
However, what none of you were clever enough to notice, despite it being very clear, is that I never actually commented on who deserved to get to the final. I was 9on about the RFL's ability to market the game to people who don't normally watch RL.
Quite simply, Wigan and St Helens, whether you like it or not, are THE names in British RL, and that match would sell itself. It's like releasing a Hollywood blockbuster with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in it.
Warrington and Huddersfield, on the other hand, whilst being a match with two deserving teams, is like trying to sell the same movie with two Coronation Street actors in the starring roles instead.
So, I'll repeat for those who still haven't got it yet, and if necessary I'll say it again later in words of one syllable. You clearly need it. The two best teams are in the final. That was never in dispute. But, sadly, the RFL are going to have a job on to get the final, and RL in general sold to the general puiblic (ie non RL Fans), because nobody really cares about at least one of the participants.
I mean (and this was the original point) who cares about Huddersfield?
