| From winning 68-6 to losing 38-0 shows the absolute chasm between top and bottom of the table. The whole club has so much to do in the closed season.

Not exactly going out on a limb there, given the history.
Bit like predicting everybody will die at the end of Hamlet, that Godot won’t arrive or that Vader is Luke’s father.

| Give over. A lot tipping the big dogs to win it this year. Pundits drooling over the Dobbins. Second favourites. I just think there will bottle it.

Everybody expects not-Wigan/Saints/Leeds to ‘bottle it’ every year, and they’re invariably right.
Rovers being good offers a little bit of novelty in a competition that is mostly bereft of it, and it is one of the two or three subplots that pop up each year to help get us through to the same routine and predictable conclusion of the main storyline.

| I do think Rovers will get to Old Trafford. They've got a home semi which will be massive for them.
When did they last lose at home? Wire in round 4?

They have a very good chance of getting to OT, however it will only take one forward pass or a sin bin against them in the semi final to send them into meltdown.

Catalans, round 16.
Home semi tbc. Wire have got a couple of games they could run up scores in. I’d like to think we can knock over Leeds though to complete a 2024 Yorkshire slam. That’d be nice.

Leeds won the grand final in 2017 and the cup in 2020, you've been out of the conversation for 40 years, easy to get confused over a few years here and there.

| Dreadful decision from SKY to move the Wigan game at short notice. Gives high chance the Rovers game will be relegated to 'win a home playoff game' status rather than chance of winning the trophy. If I was a Wigan fan who works Thursday nights id be fuming.
SKY have the game by the balls, they could tell us games are on at 2am on a Tuesday morning and we'd have no say in the matter.

cartoons/WB17.gif I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.
Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.
I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.
A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.:cartoons/WB17.gif |

He who pays the piper.. and all that!
Too be fair, even the Premier League is, too a degree, subservient to the whims of Sky/TNT, and that competition has way more clout than Rugby League.
Without the Sky money RL would no longer be viable in its current set-up. We have no choice but to tug our forelock and fall in line with these sudden decisions unfortunately.
