Stuff the plastic final , go all out for the challenge cup .

bang on, hadn't realised Wigan won 8 on the trot (87-95), and then Saints 3 (2006-2008), when you look at the CC history there's a fair few teams that aren't anywhere near SL anymore!

We sponsor Melbourne Storm and at our annual conference Craig Bellamy came to do a talk and Q&A for 30 mins
I took a lot of notes and will ping them to AP
It's pretty clear he's modelled on Bill Belichick at Patriots
He's crazy for the 1%s and working so hard on all the basics and knowing your job and sticking to it like your life depends on it
That's why Defence wins GFs and is a reflection of the team ethos
Missed tackles are a major gauge of that

Been guilty of a bit of name-dropping on here myself over the years but you are this forum's chief exponent in the art of it.


I like it Tarqs, keep up the good work.

Name dropping Wiv 'ardmen is hardly comparable though mate?

We were in a similar position after our cc wins. I think that next step is a big one and it's more a mentality change throughout the whole club.

There were many heated debates on the wire hoard about us getting to two finals and winning the lls being a success or failure. I'm pretty sure people with a gf ring would call it a a failure. I'm by no means trying to say that the cc or lls are worthless winning any of the 3 cups available is an achievement.

I hope that there's a new name on the trophy preferably warrington but if not anyone other than Wigan saints or Leeds!!!!

I’ll have to disagree Whitey HDM article is a non story. Opening line says it all, the half-back's body is in a great place, just means he here in Hull. However he was a joy to watch last season so I expect a repeat at least if not an improvement

What tosh, Hatton is clear in what he means. Just hoping to read that Kelly has signed a 3 year deal, and soon!
