Catalans or especially Hull, on current form would put up a great show in a final IMO.
Give me a choice of final now and I'd go Wigan vs Hull FC. They would take 30,000 to Wembley and the atmosphere would be excellent. They'd also be a tough nut to crack IMO. Ellis and Holdsworth back, Miller to come in, a top class backline and some tough forwards.
I'd expect us to win but it would be far from a walkover. I think they're really shaping up to look a good side now. |

You could both be right to be fair, I'm still holding out for Wigan v Wire though that would be a real classic. As for Sheffield, I'd love them to manage an upset and beat London. Does anyone know who the last Championship side was to make the semis? Were Sheffield in the championship in '98 or just a poor SL side?

What a fix!
The RFL might as well just give us the cup like they did in 2011 when we had to play Bradford, Dire, Stains and the Whinos away from home to win it.

Came 8th out of 12, above Hull & Warrington in fact.
I predicted 2 of the ties, just had Hull & Widnes the other way round. |

How hard can it be for the RFL to do a competent job?'"
There's a note on the RFL's website saying that although there aren't currently any jobs being advertised if you think that your skills would benefit the the company submit your CV.
I'm so tempted. |

23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |
