Does anyone think we should just make the call now and get waney to come out publically and say we will pick the lowest placed team?!

Its a joke creation anyway, and can only have a negative impact from our point of view in motivating the team we pick - IMO we should negate this and show the whole thing up as the mockary it is by making it a non event and just say now we will pick the lowest placed team full stop!

We all know he wouldn't pick Saints or Leeds, does he have bottle to pick Wire ?

No? What if it turns out Warrington got 8 injuries from their game yesterday or get loads of injuries next week but still win?

When and where will the club call be made?

I'll imagine it'll either be a week on Monday or after the Wire v Hull/Hudds match on Saturday.

But knowing us, we'll make the announcement 5 minutes before we're due to play...

has been on sunday for the last 2 years

can't pick saints.the pick is winner of frogs/leeds or wire/hull or hudds.i think it will be a choice between the frogs or wire and that is a no brainer.

Next Sunday live on SSN

Out of interest, if Leeds go to Cats and stick a real convincing victory on them, while a misfiring Wire scrape past Hull/Huddersfield by 2 or 3 points, who would you go for?

I just ask this, because in hindsight, its pretty obvious that last year we should have chosen yourselves over Leeds, as it was apparent that you had run out of juice and that Leeds were on a bit of a roll.

However, fear of appearing arrogant probably influenced, and will probably always influence, us or any side taking the gamble of picking a higher placed side.

Leeds everytime.

Send Wire to Saints and let them batter each other again.

Watching Hull v Huddersfield, I don't think Wire need to worry about anything next week.

Total garbage!

Erroneous thinking, surely??..... Looking back at last year, Saints had the easier semi final, whilst Leeds had a real, high intensity ding-dong with us at the HJ, yet it was Leeds who looked the fresher a week later.

I'm with most people in that the clubcall is a ridiculous notion and should just be top ranking side versus lowest ranking side.....Trying to over analyse all the possible eventualities is just silly, and to be fair, is just Sky trying to create some false drama when it isn't actually there.

Wire will be at Trailer Park unless the wheels really come off the Year of the Wolfs bandwagon again, if they lose next week they'll never hear the end of it I suspect...

The biggest worry Wire fans will have is that the extra game results in more injury problems.

This. A complete no brainer.
