I could have seen Warrington picking us, had our defence leaked like a sieve, scraped a win, (helped by Ganson), picked up a few injuries, 2 days less turnaround, then just maybe.

The choice Leeds or Catalans would have been less straigt forward though.

Not a fan of this "pick your opponents" lark. Or the expansion to the top eight clubs playoffs. Both are just a money spinning exercise that offer little for proper fans or anyone over the age of six.

Lets get back to the top six playoffs, no gimmicks, and get on with it.

The Club Call announcement was yet another example of the appalling mismanagement of RL in this country.

Why did it look like the room was prepared for a press conference that no-one other than a couple of bored looking coaches had bothered to turn up to?

Why was the announcement made in the commentary box after the game?

The whole thing looked trivial and mismanaged.

Our game is constantly sabotaged by the amateurism of its administrators.

I reckon the club call system should be that at the end of the year the team that has won the league chooses its Grand Final opponents there and then from anyone in the top 8.
