Probably.

He can and he will, Briers will not miss their next game

Your not wrong

Thought the early plea for punching would gurantee the 1 game ban.

Pretty much guaranteed saints or Leeds at home now then. As wire will more than likely pick the winner of hudds vs hull.

our home semi is on thursday or friday night 26 or 27.hope its not thursday but it could be.

We'll have the 2nd semi, as Warrington get the 'advantage' of an extra day's rest before Old Trafford. So would be Friday night.

Tony Smith said he would "happily flip a coin" if he was made to pick at the Club Call. All of a sudden, he thinks he's above the competition and doesn't need to comply. Surely to eliminate the choice factor, going with lowest rank is the best option

Check the RFL website and look at disciplinary section. Wella Huaki (sp) used an early guilty plea this week for a grade A offence and was fined £300 with no ban.

No. He thinks it's f*cking stupid

So did other coaches in the past but you have to get on with it. Everyone knows the structure and what finishing higher gets you so just get on with it! I agree that its a stupid feature but he can't change it so just comply

I'd love it if Smith literally just sat there and flipped a coin at the press conference.

Not necessarily. Wire easily beat Leeds today, and if Leeds & Saints batter each other up next Friday, and Huddersfield stroll to victory over Hull, then why not pick the side who has had the hardest game.

I can see Huddersfield coming to the DW providing they beat Hull.

I agree. Smith now has an impossible task of making a correct call. It's going to be the most interesting club call to date

Huddersfield v Hull
League Leaders, or team who turned them over in the Challenge Cup at the same stage

Or

Leeds v Saints
Champions, or team with the best form coming into the playoffs.

All matches are going to be who turns up on the day from here on in.

Wane has played a blinder. Bitcon has timed his conditioning to perfection this year to date.

If Wire chose Hudds over Leeds they would be seen to be 'bottling' playing Leeds considering that's the natural selection. What also may come into thier thinking is that if they have to beat Leeds at some point they rather play them at home than a neutral venue.
