Be interesting to see when they could fit the extra fixture.
Where does it state it's at Sheffield United ?'"
I know that was the plan in '11. Maybe it's the same every year? |

Typical RFL behind the times sticking with a replay when other sports ensure their big finals are settled on the day |

Yeah I'd sooner go for extra time. Maybe the bbc can't show it if it overruns? They have regional news and celebrity pointless to think about afterall. |

The golden point extra time concept was only introduced to prevent fixture backlogs in earlier rounds and while it is good for avoiding the need for a replay and preventing fixture pile-ups it is an abysmal spectacle as the game always degenerates into a succession of one man drives followed by a drop goal attempt until one finally goes over.
Golden try would be a better system where a team had to score a try to win the game but with golden point I am happier to see a replay take place than such an anti-climactic finish.
Incidentally should there be a replay that then finishes in a draw as well (unlikely though that is) then that game would be decided by golden point to avoid the need for successive replays. |

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

Thank God we dont use the same motorway to get down there - 170 coaches (that the club knows about) going from the Hull area, with many more being sourced from Birmingham, Doncaster etc to get people there.
Have a safe trip and see you on Wembley Way!

The replay is due to be the day before we play Leeds on the 4th September.
If there is a replay, play the 19s against Hull and Leeds and get that 4th spot.
