I agree with Wires 71. It was like playing Keighley in the 4th Round of the Challenge Cup. However, I think it has been like this for the last couple of years. 2011 was different because we were so obviously going for the League Leader's Shield. Last year we managed the season tactically and were very close to winning everything; I imagine we will end up with a similar season ths year - top 2 in the league, maybe 3rd or 4th if we have a bad run. Then the cup comes down to one or two matches on the day - if we are away to Leeds in three weeks time or home to St Helens, then that dream could end very quickly. If we end up with a near full squad at the play offs, then we only need to win 2 games to make it to the GF.

And yet, and yet... is this not better than the hell of 2002 or the surprise wins against the big teams of 2005, 2006, 2007 with silly losses against Wakefield and Salford? I go into important games and games against our title rivals expecting to win. The matches are great and of a high standard.

But yes I was bored yesterday.

Glad others are saying this. We felt the same way. All felt pointless and perfunctory not helped by the team only sporadically sparking into life.

I am enjoying amateur junior and youth games more at the minute.

totally agree,my 9 year old son said he didn't want to go as in his words
"it's a nothing game and there will be no atmosphere"

i have watched warrington for 35 years in all kinds of weather but yesterday i too felt bored,myself and a mate were stood under the north stand just after half time and you would not have known a game was being played,for a few seconds it was total silence,we decided to go at that point.

There is an inevitably about all this. The lack of reward for topping the League has been the catalyst for this moribund feeling.

How quickly did the disappointment subside post-Wides, when the realisation that it didn't really matter kicked in. Top four is pretty much a given, so, ho-hum.

Until such time SL give a genuine reason to try and finish top, be it prize money or a bye straight into the semi-final playoffs (my preferred option), be prepared for more of the same.

Certain rules and coaching that produce identi-kit players with no personality, sending off for biff, half backs with less skill than previous generations, no shoulder charges.
No promotion/relegation, Sky changing fixtures at will, bandwagoners and their silence.

Give me time i could add to that list.

You're obviously far too good nowadays and too used to success. You should offload your best players to the Bulls to even things up icon_wink.gif

I'm not sure what you do to end the spate of "nothing games". Reducing the numbers in the play offs will mean more games involving clubs outside the play offs will be lacklustre. You could bring back relegation but that opens another can of worms. As I remember "nothing matches" occurred pre SL and will always occur, you just need to keep them at a minimum.

The game is a lot more sanitised than it was, this does make it less interesting IMO. There was a paltry bit of handbags in the Leeds vs Bradford game on Thursday yet it added some spice to an already decent game. Bring back the biff.

Ive been saying this for sometime and get blasted for doing so.

Superleague is a sham and the regular rounds are largely pointless to a degree.

2/3 teams are not competitive in any shape or form.

The only games worth seeing are those involving wire, leeds, saints and wigan. The rest are nothing games with very little atmosphere.

Blame the authorities and blame sky. The game is dying a slow death.

On that note, happy April everyone!!

Its not just our games though.... im struggling to enjoy games right across the board. I used to love nothing more than sitting down on a bank holiday weekend knowing i could watch 3/4 games on TV and watch a few live.

I tried to watch every game this weekend but i ended up doing something else in every game before HT.

As i sit here typing these, Offiah is on talksport saying this is the most entertaining SL season for many a year.... maybe im living in a Parallel universe.

lack of atmosphere and* i couldnt care less about the result at the end of the day * just about sums it up for me, and ive been a s-t for more years than i care to rem!and im seriously thinking about not renewing my s-t nxt year! it just seems weekly games( apart from wigan,leeds,saints etc) are not worth paying for,well until the end of season run up to the g-f knockout games! and that just does not seem right to me,rl is certainly losing its appeal to me and i feel that it must change the present format or die on its a**
