| My reflections.
We got beat by a dead cert penalty awarded for an offside that Ganson & child's had ignored all game, Beaten by two points, end of.
Leeds 13 points behind Warrington are crowned Super League champion if they win next week ? Bizarre !!
Don't be taken in by the Sky Sports knockout jamboree.
As in any other sport, Top of the League are the Champs, or the whole year has been a pointless farce !

King is a great player, but I really don't think his position is one where you necessarily need a top class player.....I believe we have plenty of options to cover his loss.
The main thing is that your pivot roles are covered with top class players...They are numbers 1, 6, 7, 9 and 13 and if Hodgson stays fit (which looks a big if) then i think we are suitably covered....However, replacing Briers and Monaghan in the future is going to be key to our long term future....I think in the next 2-3 years we can expect to see Mr Moran's chequebook make an appearance or two to remedy those problems.

| I agree 100% with Wilsons sentiments about league leaders being the true champions.
Unfortunately though its only the GF winners that get remembered as the years winners.

That's a terrible insult to Leeds's effort last night....To say we bottled it is simply a cop-out, Leeds were tremendous and, in my opinion, would have beat any Super League side last night with that display.
The sad fact is some of our fans have got carried away with the way we have been blowing sides away this year and seemed to expect it every week, and when we didn't we get accused of 'bottling' it.....Last night was a play off match against an experienced, if under acheiving, Leeds side and was always going to be a tough game - There is no shame in the way we went out.

Agree, Leeds played their best game of the year, but they beat us by a 2 point penalty, good luck to them, I want them to win the GF, but Champions? Absolutely not !

Lets be honest - we won two Challenge Cups against sides that bottled it.
Huddersfield froze in the headlights of their first experience of Wembley, and then Leeds crumbled under the pressure last year and played a shocker.
We fortunately managed to avoid our nemesis the Saints because they bottled it in the semi finals both times (like this year as well)
But of course we thought those wins were cos we were just too good for our opponents. In both years we were clearly underdogs - in 2009 Hudds made the playoffs and had the best player in the league and we finished 9th. Last year Leeds went into the game as triple Grand Final winners and they couldn't handle the cauldron of knock out rugby.

Not bad.
However, just to clarify, the Wire Hudds final saw most bookies have both teams at 5/6 or 4/5, and we were marginal favourites against Leeds last year, IIRC.

| FFS, 5 pages of bait rising to the @@@@wit that is Colin_Fishwaick
Are some of you lot blind or daft?
I tumbled this imposter weeks ago.
I mean, COME ON, we won the league 3 weeks ago, and where was he....nowhere to be seen
He predicted our downfall v Wigan...wrong
He said we'd get beat by Hull...guess what, wrong again.
As a result, we won the league for the first time in nearly 40 years, and guess where the @@@@wit is.....nowhere to be seen
We hammer Hudds....no posts from little Col
We have 13 days without a game.....again, no posts from little Col
We lose a game, and he's throwing in bait like it's going out of fashion.
Come on boys and girls.....if Colin is a Wire, then Ian Paisley is exchanging Christmas cards with that t0$$er Gerry Adams.

Clearly you have missed out on the past 13 years of power sharing.
If the DUP can sit in an assembly with Sinn Fein then we can all learn to love each other, Odemwingie kingwarrior Rogues Gallery Saddened and Casual Des. Like Bob Marley said one love, one heart lets get together and feel alright.
