Interesting fixture that one the week before the final. You won’t rest many/any in France but our game could see two vastly different teams facing off. I’m not sure Burgess seems the sort to rest too many mind and we didn’t rest many the week before the 2022 final, so we’ll have to wait and see. The fact it’s against each other could force both coaches to hold a bit back.

To Matt Wire....(Unable to quote your post) :-

Just read that Wire are travelling to France tomorrow and training there until we play Catalan.

Looks like we are taking that fixture seriously.

The Wigan game prior to the Cup Final could be a bit of a farce though.

Like that, I would rather we have a good go at Catalan and rest against Wigan.

I didn't get to watch the game today but, well done, and I wish you all the best in the final. For those who decide to go to Wembley, have a great day everyone.

Well done today, you totally deserved the win and good luck for the final. As we go every year we will be there supporting you. Giants (Fartown) for life, Warry for the day!

All class are Hudds*, your coach admitted we were the far better side today, total fair play to him. Soft spot for you lot since the "well done wire" banner in 2011.

*Except Jake Connor, can't say he'd have won over any Hudds skeptics today! Absolute pillock.

Re: Boss Hog:

I like that. We owe Les Dracs one after the last two. Then heads down until 8th June. Bubble wrap and cotton wool on the usual suspects!

You got to be joking right? Clear as day on TV and full marks to Powell for giving verbals to the Wire 'fans' who did it. Hopefully they will be identified and banned.

A fair set of ratings. I thought it was a bit disappointing to see Musgrove making his way off the field with 6-7 minutes left. If hes not going to rack up a few minutes at the end of a game that is well over as a contest, when is he.

Without question. We were very good, but you would be very upset if your team came to a semi final and showed as little as they did yesterday. Very limited evidence of a plan besides 'give it to Swift'.

The commentary on the game was embarrassing....semi final of the best known competition on RL and they put someone commentating who cannot even be bothered to learn the players names, even when you can clearly see their squad numbers! 'Harrison making the break & passing to Drinkwater' my 4rse!
