We are agreeing.
I'm referring to the questions above.

I'd stay as we are but if some want to bring MCB in it shouldn't be for Tupou or Arundel.

Coming up to three most important game we only have 21 fit players that have decent first team experience . If Hadley can't play against hull we really need a fit wood to step in if required .

The loss of allgood , walker , batchelor , Johnson , for disparate reasons and three quarter finals on the trot are going to make this a real test

Who's Johnson?

I think we can win, but I feel it is another step up from Leeds game.


I got your point but now you're starting to devalue the teams efforts and that's unfair.

Who knows if Leeds were complacent they were never really allowed to play.

Also what step up from the Leeds game exactly. We'd have beaten just about anyone that night and would do so again if we could repeat it - there is imho no step up needed that was a cup winning standard performance by any teams standards!

We hate it when opposition fans rubbish us so why do it to ourselves.

I don't think you end up fourth by accident. I'm not pretending we are the best but we can win pressure games now. Whether we can win enough that's a different matter :-)

Was hoping to be making the journey north for the game but unfortunately not able to make it. I'm not sure how it will pan out but feel sure it will be a close game.
Should we take every 2 points on offer or run the ball Keeping them under the cosh Wigan didn't ease up but also took a few 2 point.
Anyway its Sky for me and probably a nervy couple of hours .

Does anyone know of any bars in ibiza that will show the game tomorrow? Gutted to be missing the game as I planned my holiday around the game being shown on Saturday when I'm back.

I didn't mean to come across as pessimistic about our chances, and you're right, if we perform like we did against Leeds we should win. Low errors, high completion, excellent defence and taking opportunities in attack. We have played some excellent RL based on superb team play.

I was just trying to say that, should we win against Saints, it will be a step up, in that we will have produced the performance we are capable of in a game where both sides are desperate to win.

I get it co co a win against Saints would be a step up, its a massive game. We have in the past tended to find it difficult to go that extra step up but I think the squad we have today are capable of achieving .
This squad will probably be measured on tonights game and Saints are not a team that you can simply base a win on your defence only.
I'm sure they will start strongly and expect to break us in the pack. For me its a game that Wakey have to be on top from 1to 17 control the play the ball and not give stupid kicks away.
I just can not call it.
