You're not going to win the cup or get to wembley so surely a dignified exit against a decent team is the best way out? Gives you 3 free weekends during the season to rest some players and maybe get one over on teams coming off the back of cup games.

Winning the cup in the last 2 years was amazing but the cup runs likely cost us 2 grand final spots and maybe even a couple of wins

Did it knackers, big yourselves up all you like but you were no way the best team in the league over the last two years for any time other than than for a few weeks at a time.
We're generally rubbish, but Hull have never displayed the mental fortitude to win a play off season.

pity about the water on the brain jake , it shrank it too much, get on at 6/1 if your confident , and hope you don't draw one of the top clubs before Wembley.if you can avoid one of your wingers tweaking a hamstring and causing an injury crisis you may have a squeek

I agree with your general sentiments but Cas were far and away the best team in the league last term and that didn't help them much when it came to winning at Old Trafford. In fact the Grand Final winners lost 66-10 at Cas early in 2017 so you don't even need to be nearly the best team in the league it seems.

last 2 years weve beaten the best teams to win the cup, not saying we are the best team but if am honest who cares when your lifting the CC, I havnt got tired yet of lifting the CC and would love to win it again, for the younger ones the grand final is the one to win, But for me Wembley doesn't half feel good,

When was the last time KR won the CC and how may times ? after all as previously posted on here you only have to win 4 games .

Hi Andy

Were on about the big boys cup not your win a couple of games and they give you a CC the grand final you know the one where you choke and the proper big clubs win

Considerably weaker than last few year and Saints/Wigan/Warry have their ducks in a row it seems? The 2016 in particular looked a penalty kick for getting to Old Trafford with other teams in turmoil. Going back to the CC Hulls draw is tasty as win v Fev and maybe draw Leigh/Sal or Wakey/Hudd at home then Semi looks very makeable.Same logic applies for us although we face a bigger obstacle in Wigan.

win a couple of games lol, how come you've never won it in the last 38 years then?, say what you like frankie boy I love Wembley and always will, grand final is good don't get me wrong but when you could go through the season unbeaten then not even get to old Trafford and be crowned champions?

back to back CC wins,Lance Todd winner, GF semi's, a MOS and nomination the following year.
Jealous KR fan... nothing more.

You wont be quite so blinkered when The Wizard takes you to the Million Scheckles Game.

Why come on here then? You are a dangleberry and need to learn just because someone doesn't agree with you they are not jealous or a troll.Your fellow fc fans despise you and you are as welcome on here and leed s forum about as much as genital warts

No grand final wins or even finals in that little montage like I said big time chokers no jealousy here PC

so you wouldn't like the CC in your trophy cabinet?

small minded club, enjoy crying into your pint in the 10:5 bar...

We were the best team in the comp in 2016 up until wembley after which we won only 1 of 4 league games and lost away at wigan in the play offs. We fell off a cliff after wembley and it undoubtedly cost us a GF spot and likely a win. Last year we were bang average for most of the year but were only beaten by the eventual comp winners by virtue of a missed conversion.

In both years we showed we could beat every other decent side in the competition in knock out rugby but the CC wins in both years meant we didn't have enough left in the tank for the league. I don't expect a rovers fan to agree but we were head and shoulder the best side in SL in 2016 and good enough to win it in 2017
