Quote: Big Jim Slade "Tackling your nonsense one step at a time...

Two easy ties? Just because we won convincingly doesn't make the ties easy.

A final we weren't in until an injury? Did you watch that game? It was a final Saints wouldn't have hada hope in hell in if they hadn't been wrongly awarded two tries, and the last time I checked being ahead after 60 minutes had never won a trophy.

You talk abouta fluke and then mentiona cup final you were second best in for all but 20 minutes as an example of doing it tough? No fluke there I take it?

Finally the LLS is not the hardest to win, because it's not the trophy any team sets out to win. If it was the be all and end all you can guarantee you'd see Leeds on there more often.

Other than that yeah.'"


Ok then. Two convincing wins against a poor Hull side and a Hudds side that would struggle to beat St Pats.

Yes I watched the game and I saw how Saints were in control until their back line was decimated and you took control to win it.

What was flukey about a game in which you were never ahead?

Winning GF is brilliant when you also (win) finish top of the league. 2010 was incredible! Finishing 5th isn't credible enough for me, GF or no GF. CC is just great if your in the final, otherwise it's sadly sidelined. Obviously holds a special place for Wigan though! I for one felt the magic when the final hooter went in the semi. She wore, she wore...

Quote: Dougy "It would be interesting to see a season where to win the Championship you had to finish top. Just to see if the intensity would go up a level week on week. I think it would do, and IMO the playoffs are the reason regular season games don't seem as good as they used to.'"

The intensity would lift initially, but once a team knows they're out of the running, which would happen to some before halfway through the season, where's their motivation? I'd be releasing the guys who we weren't keeping for next season early and giving the fringe players lots of game time. That doesn't exactly make for a high intensity game

Maybe if 2 were relegated and there was money at stake dependant on league positions? eusa_whistle.gif

Quote: Jukesays "Maybe if 2 were relegated and there was money at stake dependant on league positions? Then we're back into the problem of yo-yo clubs. Might not be as much of an issue in Championship I suppose. Having said that, it still wouldn't fix it. There will be plenty of clubs that know fairly early they won't get relegated and won't finish top.
