Should you be correct in your assumption, the team winning the hubcap (even by a large margin) doesn't always win the GF.

It's still all to play for by several clubs, and not just one.


That is where this current structure betters previous ones, certainly the 1v4 2v3 of last season.

Saints are, sadly, miles ahead of the rest this season but for them to not make Old Trafford means they lose 2 games in a row which you just can't see. Of course they could lose the final but that's a seperate thing completely.

So is the Widnes ground but it doesn't mean we see them as bigger rivals than Wigan.

Your 4 points off the bottom place London and 16 points off top place saints.Your 7th place in the league out of 12.The only way you would alter our chances of getting to Old Trafford would be to have a Terry Newton type of player causing mayhem.


Resting players (or having them missing) is working really well for you. Lose half your pack week in week out as we have all season and you would be no better off than us. Are we still in a relegation battle BTW?

We had 2 of our starting 13 playing yesterday so the outcome was pretty much nailed on especially on a plastic pitch.We get that luxury as we are 10 pts clear of second place Warrington.You are closer to London pts wise than us and if you think we would be as much a shambles as Wigan if we had a few forwards out your deluded.Come 2 weeks time you could easily be sitting in 7th place.Every time youve come up against the top 3 this season youve lost.

It’s not the fear I smell but I do hear a big clock ticking. When the bell rings Holbrook will be back in Australia and will have taken Thompson with him and Roby will be nothing more than a second statue.

Enjoy it whilst you can (best win some trophies mind).
