It's time there was a new name on that trophy, and one side that has not won it will be at OT next weekend. After the Wigan defeat, I thought there would be only one choice Warrington could make, and that would have been the winner of the Hudds v Hull game. Watching Huddersfield perform as they did nearly changed my mind, but I still think it is the right call, but the Giants confidence must be sky high after the job they did against Hull. Having said that, after putting 40 points on Leeds, ours isn't exactly rock bottom.

I think Wigan will beat Leeds at the DW, and I think this could have been behind some of the thinking too. Playing Leeds once in the play off series is more than enough, as this is when they are in their element, especially when it comes to games against Warrington.

I am going to a Wigan Wire final, which is what people are said to have been wanting for years. That will be a genuine spectacle under the lights. Now though, Huddersfield need to be put away as they have been on most other occasions. Now is not the time to relinquish our dominance over them, now is when we reiterate it

You do 'have to beat us' to progress.....it wasn't meant in a condescending way.

Likewise my friend

indeed.....

If we lose after breaking the unwritten rule of ClubCall, we* will look pretty stupid. I don't think anyone can really deny that.

*"We" as in the club in general, not we as in us on here because none of us made the call.

Thats not what you were getting at was it though.

Get the feeling on these forums that some out you lot are more up for beating us just because of the selection, rather than the actual prize itself of a Grand Final place.

I couldnt two stuffs if we look stupid I will be more gutted that we have blown a massive chance to win what we all dream about for the 3rd year running by not being good enough on the night.

Well beating you to get to the Grand Final will be sweet and get the monkey off our backs no doubt, but to get there we have to beat you so its the same either way....

Whatever happens, as in the Challenge cup, whoever wins is who i want to win the big prize !

The only thing thats got my goat was the way your Chairman went on about how it was them who picked the winner between Hull or ourselves before the game had even been played and letting the coaching staff know after discussions what their decision was and not the other way round. Your Chairmans their to run Warrington as business and Tony Smith is paid to coach the team and give you the best possible chance of winning trophies. If your Chairman and board think that they can pick and decide who you play and who you have a better chance of beating better than Smith then why employ him. They should have been truthful from the start then no one could have any complaints.

What if Leeds had got through but Sinfield, Hall and Burrows or a couple of other of their key players had been injured and out of this weeks game, would they have back tracked and picked Leeds instead? I think they would.

It would have been better if Smith and your Chairman admitted that they thought we were the so called "easy option" for you to get through to Old Trafford. You've had the beating of us for a few seasons now so it was no surprise to anyone when our name was read out on Sunday and deep down the majority of Giants fans knew you would pick us.

Well onto the game, I think we'll beat you on Thursday and break our GF appearance duck. Think it will be a close game and could be won yet again by a Cudjoe last minute length of the field try. It should be a cracker, 2 of SL best attacking teams who go into the match after convincing wins playing for a place at Old Trafford and a possible maiden GF win. I can't wait, roll on Thursday night.

The Club Call has gone Yes I think Tony Smith was out of order but hey ho.

We've had a great season there's a big game to be won or lost that we are a part of tomorrow and I for one am looking forward to it it's a toughie but we can win as can Warrington.

You are favourites we have 6pts start that's about right but nothing that can't be over turned on the night !!!

The great thing about Rugby League at this level there are no guarantees that's what makes it so much fun !!!

had a chuckle this morning, a letter in the league weekly, from young adam green, 'uddersfield. who had taken great offence by tony smith not turning upa nd warrington choosing the giants to play, we'd done his job to motivate the players for him and we were disrespecting the team that topped the table by "a handsome lead"


One point?

LOL 1pt.
