Either, but with the Grand Final you also get the World Club Challenge! So I would say GF.






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

Personally the Challenge Cup every time. Sadly the competition has been eroded thanks to the sky backed mickey mouse way the league is decided at the end of the season. Yes it's exciting, yes Saints have benefited from finishing second and yes it's a nice day out at OT but i'm a traditionalist who believes the team that finishes top are the champions.

Wembley for me every time no matter which clubs get to the final.

If I thought we could finish top of the league and be the best team in the competition, I'd rather win the Grand Final.

But I'm much rather win the Challenge Cup than come from seventh or eighth and win the play offs.

On that basis, until we come in the top two or three in the league, I'd rather win the Challenge Cup.

For the day out... the Grand Final. Wembley is a complete sh*t hole! There's nothing but boredom before the match. I preferred the Challenge Cup at Cardiff in all honesty.

I not thinking about it because we won't be getting to any finals this year.
