| Quote Grimmy="Grimmy"Why? Since 2006 both trophies have always been won by Leeds, Wigan, Warrington and Saints. Those same four teams have also occupied 4 of the top 6 spots since 2008 and contested all Grand Finals since 2007. Same story since the millennium really except Bradford used to be a force rather than Warrington, Hull won a Challenge Cup and made a Grand Final, and we lost the plot in 05-06.
I'm not saying Huddersfield will never break into that group but surely you can see it exists. The bookies certainly agree with what I'm saying looking at the Grand Final Winner odds. Having said that I hope you do break into that category by winning one of the two trophies because having the same four teams winning everything every year isn't good for the competition.'"
Your choice of 2006 is purely arbitrary. A bit earlier and you quite rightly include Bradford.
A bit earlier and you could include...
As far as RL is concerned, Huddersfield's record is up there with the rest - and better than the vast majority. |

Come on guys! As far as the 2013 season is concerned, Wigan deserve nothing but credit for winning the Grand Final and Challenge Cup, and Huddersfield deserve nothing but credit for winning the League Leaders Shield, but 2013 is gone now. 2012 and earlier is even more gone!
Huddersfield deserve credit for beating Wigan in the first game of the 2014 season, but it's very early days yet - I'm pretty sure both teams will win more than they lose this season.
(PS. I'm a Huddersfield supporter but wish Wigan well in the World Cup Challenge)

After all the tripe thats been posted recently and in the past by Wigan and Leeds fans - the Daily Mail reports Gary Hetherington (Leeds) but also an ex player in last Sat edition as follows :- (quote)
[i:nw9zvcb4[iOur goal is to be consistent,which is difficult in itself, but ultimately we`re here to be successful and that means winning silver ware.
Our FIRST goal is to be League Leaders because in many ways thats the TOUGHEST ACHIEVEMENT[/i (acknowledgement to Daily Mail and Neil Barraclough)
So obviously I take it that had it been Leeds w were playing last week THEY are just that bit more professional than the Pies (according to the visiting dumbos) - and THEY wouldnt have taken it as a no importance game ??
HTH!

The dislocated kneecap explains the pain then it hurts like hell. Speedy recovery to Larne and hope we get to see him back soon'"
I never said this. Now people are saying terrible things and saying it's me? |

No need to lock it, if it annoys you just don't click on the thread. |

The thread title is 'Wigan (A) - 7/2/2014'. What we have ended up with is 26 pages of unrelated diatribe.
If people want to discuss the pros and cons of LLS v GF/CC then why not start a new thread and leave the rest of us to discuss the actual game as per the OP. |

I'd just leave it as it is. It's still about the Giants (LLS) v Warriors (double winners) and this topic probably has the most views and most replys than there's been on this Giants forum for months and quite possibly years. Good topic that's seems everyone's has got an opinion on. |

No problem with Giants (LLS) v Warriors (double winners) as a topic per se - I just don't want to trawl through pages and pages trying to find posts that are actually relevant to the topic title.
Anyways must get back to work or I'll be  |
