TS has said he won't make the call, he'll leave it to the club. Say Steven Broomhead on the train back last night, he'd go for Hull KR if they were an option but really the whole thing's a mess so who knows what we'll end up with.

if wigan lose then get through to week 3, i wouldn't choose them,

dont want to be picking up loads of dodgy shoulder ankle and knee injuries, going in the grandfinal.

Someone told me we couldn't choose Wigan. I really don't understand how this new playoff system works

good point.

If they lost, i'd pick Wigan, just get the game out the way win or lose, if we win it puts the fear of god in the other team, the fact we deliberately chose the hardest team.

That is just dumb

Get them out the way and we can fight it out for the cup if you do or can pick us then i hope it bites you on the ass

If we lose we lose but if we win the next team will be thinking fugging hell, these men are just lunatics. Then hopefully the final v Saints, do it the hard way, i'd prefer that to a possible limp semi final (note i said possible not probable)

Succeed the hardest way is the way i've always preferred.

Ts is not a big fan of the clubcall so it's more than likely we'll just choose the lowest placed team left in the competition... It would be interesting though if he just said lets Draw our next opponents out of a hat live on the clubcall broadcast ...

And this for me is the problem with this absurd concept. If a club chooses anyone other than the team that finishes lowest in the weekly rounds they will be seen as arrogant and setting themselves up for a fall. For a sport renowned for adopting 'interesting ideas', this one is perhaps the most bizarre.

Indeed. No club has yet had the nerve to raise their head above the parapet and choose a side other than the lowest ranked.

The concept is fine, if the lowest ranked team was flying you could pick another team ravaged with injuries and lack of form, but no club will ever do it IMO.

Super League isn't a great competition so it means whoever finishes top or second is pretty much guaranteed to beat any of the other sides at home in the semi final so they don't really care. It would be interesting to see it in the NRL perhaps as they might have a reason to not pick the lowest ranked team as it would like feature some dangerous players.

The concept isn't fine, it is ridiculous and makes a mockery of our game. A pure gimmick, with no singular redeeming element to it.

It has to be the lowest ranked team, to me the clubcall is a ridiculous gimmick and should be scrapped.

I would choose Wigan and Saints:

Play one in the morning, the other in the afternoon! Bring it on!!!
