I'm sure every team goes into a game trying to win. That is not, nor ever has been an issue.'"


I sadly disagree with this. If winning the league was the be all and end all I honestly believe the league would be thrashed out between Wigan Leeds and Hudds.

Leeds have played in perfectly, out of the top 4 who would you want to play? Hudds. So finishing 4 is the golden spot in the table.

Wigan v Warrington is a tough match, avoid both teams until you have to deal with them, beat Hudds and walk through.

Quote: jools "Huddersfield certainly haven't gone hell for leather week in week out- if that were the case we would have done what wire and Wigan did previously putting massive points on teams. The giants have played sensible rugby doing enough to secure the two points working on their plays and combinations and getting good understanding between players in our squad all of which will stand us in good stead for later. But if it makes you feel better about your teams poor performances to insist that it was purposeful then go ahead and bluster. To me it looks like its wigan that have run out of steam as now would be the time to put in a good run and get momentum not a bad one.
If the giants had put in the performances and got the results Wigan have in recent weeks we would be accused by you of having a mid season slump- because it's Wigan it's done on purpose!
Haha!
Honestly, I'm loving Hudds false sense of abilty and position in the SL, you are no where near the standards of Wigan, Wire or Leeds. Only 3 good teams in the whole comp, with Hull and yourself doing ok.

Hudds have never been a worry, as they're simply not that good, no one whos watched top teams over here and in the NRL can possibly say Hudds are anything to worry about. Seriously, I cannot wait for the playoffs, we'll see what happens.

Your arrogance is quite breathtaking.

The playoff system is always going to favour teams in form going into them.

The current system also favours positions 1,2,5 and 6.

So lets look at the form. Huddersfield and Sts are the form teams.

Positions wise Leeds and Wigan will be 3rd and 4 th. They will have to be on song in the playoffs to get anywhere . Wigan are paying poorly. With Sam and Lockers fit they may do something. Leeds are not at the races but at least may be fit soon.

All this points to a Warrington V Hudds grand final.

Sadly I'm not sure that Wigan will even beat Hull in the cup final which will be a real shame as the 1985 final is the best game I've been to and the best night out round Wigan after it. Losing to Hull would take the shine off that for me.

Don't appreciate the opening comment. I understand you also have an opinion on clubs and team performances, as do I, but DON'T GET PERSONAL. Stick to the teams/clubs players.

you seem rather confident in beating Leeds come playoff time, we all know how that usually works out. How many playoff games have you ever won? (Genuine question)
