| Quote: betamax "Hold on a second.. so if we end up 3rd and play Saints away in week 1, and win, we would then have a week off and play the winners of Saints v whoever in round 3 but because we won away in game one against the higher placed team, we would then be at the HJ for the next game? Or is that just in the event that Saints also lose their second game?
Confused.'"
How many times....?

Work out all the permutations from this.
In a nutshell, we have to beat Saints, at least once. |

The likelihood is we'll play Saints twice to get to the final, the result of the first game isn't the end of the world. The result of the second one is !

Wrong. Play Saint week one and lose, win week 2 and lets say that Leeds/Hull beat wigan and club call us. Saints get knocked out in the semifinal. We can win the GF WITHOUT beating Saints. The again, irrespective of our records against them in the league, recent cup final results would predict in one-off knock-out rugby I'd take on Saints with no worries (well, very few TBH) |

Erm, if Saints beat us, and Leeds/Hull beat Wigan, then Saints have the ClubCall in Week 3, surely. My suspicion is that if they've beaten us in Week One, they'll more than likely choose to attempt to do it again in Week Three. |

Perfectly correct. I stand corrected but the original comment that we dont HAVE to beat St helens still stands. It all depends on fixtures and results etc. |

Correct. Then Saints would have the clubcall to pick either Wigan or ourselves. |

Would you like a small wager - proceeds to charity of your choice.
My assertion is that Warrington will not win the GF without beating Saints at some point in the playoff process. |

 Not really because I actually think your assertion is correct (I was merely pointing out its not compulsary) and we will beat them in round 1 ........ although I wouldnt put a bet on it |
