Quote fartown since 1961="fartown since 1961"Sorry guys although I do agree with a lot of this if we finish 4th this year we will have gone 3rd, 5th, 4th in the last three years. So top 4'ish is now the standard set and we have achieved this with all the said blips....
I posted before the Cas match that the CC should have been our goal this season I still maintain we 'blew' it at Cas but would have murdered Leeds in the semi if they had played as poorly Cas snatched defeat from the 'jaws' of Victory.
In effect the two trophies on offer if you discount the 1st place hubcap... are both knockout tournaments one with an open draw the other the equivalent to the seeding at Tennis. Top teams get an advantage but can still go out....
To win the CC you can play three championship teams and two superleague
teams of any position or many other combinations thereof.
In the play offs you have to in theory to beat one or both of the top two teams one of them twice to win it. The CC is hence the most possible trophy for us to win.....
However had we won the games away against four of the bottom five clubs we would have finished 3rd this season and unless the 'Wire' pull a rabbit out of the hat sunday we will play wigan whereas 3rd we would have played 'Wire' and on this seasons meetings with only LOD out and with Morley and Westwood out I would take us to win one out of two at Warrington as I believe we will improve again over the next few weeks and get close to earlier season form...'"
not sure how we just gonna turn the early season form back on just like that, is there a magic switch somewhere?
As for beating Leeds in the semi's I don't think we would have been realistic, we couldn't beat cas as they wanted it more, so why would we have beaten Leeds?
Same in play offs, watching Hull tonight destroy Cas and Hull KR winning away in France, 2 things we failed to do!!! We may struggle tbh, might scrape a home win but god forbid if we have to play away anywhere!!!!
We probably have the worse form of any of the top 8 teams currently, injuries can not be an excuse cos we have the biggest squad and every other team had to deal with the same issues.
