what aload of crap cant the 2 clubs apeal this:S dont think either club or fans will want a replay should be sorted on the day

No, and nor should they.

Plus the biggest attendance for ANY rl game (and IIRC any sporting event in the UK) was a challenge cup replay.

i think the Final should be settled in the 80 minutes either in the original game or in a replay not extra time or golden point !!

Do they do golden point in the semi finals should a draw happen??

Would have thought golden point would have been a better plan. A mid week evening game is not likely to get the best crowd even for a replay of the cup. Besides isnt the Reebok a similar crowd capacity to ours??

I hate the Reebok - went to an international a few years ago - paid in advance for parking and then they went and allowed people to park down the aisles so those parked in the official spaces could not get out until those who were parked in front and behind had moved! Had to wait an hour and a half for those cars to start moving...always vowed never to go there again!

Reebok is 28,000 capacity

Hopefully will be irrelevant as it will be won on the day

It's just another way of making money.

Hardly fair on the fans who are pumping in over £2million for the final at Wembley, just for match tickets.

A final should mean that, final, the end of the competition. Yes, the record attendance was set in a CC final replay, but this is what we call progress.

Forget golden point, it should be golden try to decide the winner after 80 minutes. That would be quite possibly the most intense and exciting period of rugby possible.

I voted for a punch up between Mason and Morley.

That'd be no use if Wigan got to a final though. they'd choose Fielden and it'd be over in one punch

Or Feka then we'd be there for days.

Hopefully it doesn't go to a replay. 7.05pm kick off time will mean people on this side of the pennines will have to finish work early to get over in time for pre-match drinkies and the match.

Kick off time dictated by the BBC me thinks.

When was the last CC replay, and how many have their been?

Nah, he'd be knackered after 5 minutes.

1981-82 season Hull v Widnes.

There have been 3 replays in total. One at Fartown, One at Odsal and one at Elland Road.
