Quote: PopTart "I agree Vasty

One reason the Aussies brought their playoff in was to balance the "bye" round, which also applies to the on the road games or the Magic weekend. It isn't an absolute Home and Away level playing field so the playoff gives the chance for the team that finished 2 points behind their rival, but lost to say Wigan at Magic, to show they are as good as the other who beat say London at Magic. They got a free two points which the play off gives them in some part the chance to rectify

The biggest point to me though is that the title is decided on the last day.
I remember going to Widnes back in the day when they played Wigan in the league and the winner effectively won the title, just because of the way the fixtures landed. Was a great game and packed crowd. But equally Wigan went through a stage where they won the title a few games before the last one, which made the rest boring and poorly attended.

The Grand Final makes the Wigan v Widnes scenario happen every time. Much more exciting imo.

Lastly, and probably most important to the likes of MC. Extra gate receipts for the extra games in the playoffs are always vauable to the teams in 7 and 8.'"


IF (and it's a big if) we make the play offs, nobody will relish playing us.
We have already scalped Wigan, Warrington and Leeds and although Wigan were a depleted side, this form is as good as any of the teams in the top 8 and bearing in mind that, we would probably need to win a further 4 from 5, our confidence will be extremely high.
Fear nobody and lets see if we can cause an upset or two !

No matter what anyone says about when we've played teams if you look at the 7 games since Webster took charge we are top of the form table. From the last 14 points available:

Wakefield 11 Points
Huddersfield 10 Points
St Helens 10 Points
Warrington 10 Points
Leeds 9 Points
Castleford 8 Points
Catalans 8 Points
Salford 8 Points
Wigan 8 Points
Hull KR 6 Points
Hull FC 4 Points
Widnes 4 Points
Bradford 2 Points
London 0 Points

I'd hazard a guess that that is close to the best of any teams run of form this season.

Just checked

The only team besides us to beat Wigan, Warrington and Leeds (either home or away) is St Helens.
Each of Wigan, Warrington and Leeds have beaten each other

Ladies and Gentlemen, please meet our forum moderator KinleyCat. He's always happy to help. Here is an example of a friendly, useful reply to a fellow members question.... "honest question; has the recent upturn in performances anything to do with agars departure or webster taking charge?"

Please feel free to ask him any questions, as he's shown he's clearly approachable.

No here's an example of him having to reiterate his point to a poster that couldn't understand.
If you are unhappy at the service I give as a mod, feel free to follow the appropriate channels available to you.
Derailing threads as you are doing now will result in one of the moderating team issuing you with a warning if you intend carrying on that is.

Kinley, let's make it simple. I'm not here to "derail" threads, I've come on here, read that and seen yet again how you conduct yourself as a mod. Going back further I see you call another member a Simpleton and I know you're gonna come out with some rubbish about not calling him a Simpleton but I know what you meant.

Make love not war my friend, there's a picnic basket in the pantry so grab a blanket and we can all be friends instead of these little digs. We are all Wakefield so less of the in fighting eh?

12 posts so far, all either criticising or having a go at someone?

I come on regular to read about the club and find you and the rest of your mates criticising others if they don't agree with your views. I bite my tongue but at times (13 times now if we're playing the counting game) I decide to log in and have my say. Surely a forum is a forum for debate and not an extension of the playground where you and the clique can bully us for being different.

Going back to what you highlighted, we are all Wakefield. Stop being silly.

Oh and I'm the milkybarkid.

Hi Milkybarkid

I can see this getting out of hand and ending up in a ban, which I'm thinking is not your intention.

Like all walks of life there are rules. You may not like them but to stay on here you have to follow them.

AUP is an important document to read before you post so you don't make a mistake.

This section is important to you:

2.2. Public criticism of the moderation process is prohibited.
*If you have a question about the decision of a moderator, you should ask them via the private message system.
* If you are dissatisfied with their response, then you should contact the admin team, via support.rlfans.com/.

The vast majority of people posting on here, whether quietly reading or passionately posting manage to follow the rules without too much fuss.
Please try and do the same.

It's your choice, but there is little room for me (or any other mod) to be patient on this one.

Then you've not done your research very well, I don't have a go at anyone unless it's blatantly obvious that they're here to cause trouble or they've had a go first, Try Scorer is probably the only one who's fit either or both categories IMO. Feel free to to check my posts on here and see for yourself.

I'm certainly not in any clique, I barely know any of the posters on here, and who's this "us" you refer to?

I'm happy to debate the price of cabbages with anyone, I'll make my point without disrespecting theirs right up to the stage where we agree to differ and then part ways without falling out, that's what adults do!

In this one quoted post alone you've accused me of being the catalyst for argument, being part of a clique, being silly, being immature and being a bully. Not bad for one post where you're trying to claim the moral high ground and playing the victim.

Why not just debate your point without being accusational or insulting

Poptart,

I appreciate your reply but I fear you've missed the point of my posts. I'm not trying to create problems or gain a ban but I am highlighting issues between long term and new members. I like to view this forum as a place for debate but its rapidly becoming just a place for mates to chat and heaven forbid someone new stepping in.

I understand the rule not criticising a mod but its a little one sided when mods can criticise us members (being called simpletons or banging a head on the wall). Perhaps reigning your boys in will prevent you having to do the same to me.

If the forums rules state I must PM the person I have an issue with I will happily do so.

I'll PM you because I'll end up getting banned but I will say you have proved my point perfectly. I was speaking to someone else and you stepped in.

I am sat here reading the last few posts quite bemused

It is obvious from Avengers quote above, that he purpously went out of his way to read "milkybarkids" last 12 posts, so he could then post on here to critisize him

This is better than Eastenders icon_biggrin.gif
