| Quote: FlexWheeler "Yeah, it's a contradiction, for sure. When it comes down to it, the bottom line of it all is people just don't fancy hudds in the playoffs. There's no specific theory or evidence behind that opinion in reality, it's just instinct. People instinctively just don't think hudds have what it takes.
Huddersfield have never been to a grand final and the playoff record is scratchy. The only decent team that has been beaten in a knock out is probably warrington in 2010, who have progressed alot since then. That doesn't mean to say huddersfield can't beat warrington tonight and get there it's just probably a year too soon. With the experience this year of going to head to head with the other top teams as grand final contenders, they will probably go one step further in the next few seasons.
But this season?........Probably not, WHY? Just instinct.'"
I'd say Warrington's playoff record is "scratchy". They have a record of underachieving and a squad not as good as 2010.
Giants will win tonight..............just instinct  |

Our recent play- off record sees us:
2008 - Eliminated in the Week 1 against Catalan
2010 - Eliminated in Week 2 (second chance round) against Huddersfield
2011 - Eliminated in Week 3 (GF eliminator) against Leeds
2012 - Lose in the GF / Week 4 against Leeds
Rather than "scratchy", i'd call that "progression"/"improvement". And with our 3 Challenge Cup wins (2009, 2010 and 2012) we do know how to win in a big final. Also in losing last year's GF i'd say we've learnt a lot from last year.
Tonight, like tomorrow, could go either way. I've thought us four teams, despite the separation in points between the four by game 27, have very little between us. On their day all four will beat anyone.

That's fine. I never said they wouldn't, one of your fans pointed out the contradiction in logic from opposition fans and I simply pointed out possibilities as to why that might have occured. Sometimes in sport you just 'don't fancy' a team.
To be frank, huddersfield fans have been incredibly uppity this season and have done themselves no favours whatsoever.
Never before in rugby league, have chips so large, rested on so few shoulders. Never before in the field of rugby league conflict has so much been made of so little.....and by so few.

Giants can't hack knock out rugby?
People quote Leeds's run over the years, so I'll go back to 2006 when we only lost one knock out game - in the final.
2009 - again, knock out rugby - lost in the final.
2013 we even won the longest SL knock out game [poetic licence!] - the League Leaders Shield.
'Giants can't cope with knock out games' - garbage.

We're not much better than that...
Leeds 2006
Huddersfield 2011
Hull and St Helens 2012
Leeds 2013
So, only 5. |

exactly, wire have won 2 more playoff games than us

Looks my instinct was right.
I was right, and you were wrong.

| well the season has come to an end... wire scored 3 tries off the back of 3 daft penalties in the first half, we just didnt learn and it cost us. Then we failed to deal with the kicks which led to tries 
but i dont want to dwell on it too much, the effort from the lads was top drawer, was really proud of the team lastnight.... we just fell short, this has been an amazing season and will live long in the memory.
lets hope this season is a stepping stone for greater things, i think it will be.
Oh and our fans were great lastnight  |
