Now that is a silly question, obviously Saints are the best, because they finished top. Ask anyone. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why didn't Huddersfield win the Grand Final (or even a game against other top 4 opposition) last year?

To answer your question- because ultimately the players didn't care enough. Go back to a first past the post system or put more emphasis on finishing in the top places and Wigan, Leeds and Wire would finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in some order.

Pretty sad you have to go back three years to get a win. Ignoring the knock out cup game too...
I'm just thankful the fans I meet at games show less arrogance than a massive majority on here.

lol at simplistic logic.

Why do the bookies have wigan as favourite? if they couldn't finish top?

answer, the bookies can read between the lines of regular season and what will happen in the playoffs.

Re: Worst possible match-up : Tue Sep 16, 2014 6:57 pm  
If Saints had kept 13 on the field v Hudds they'd have put 30+ past the Giants.
They were 10-0 up and in total control when Walmsley departed.
If we can replicate the second half v Wire for an hour v Hudds then we'll win.
Whether we can do that I don't know and that's why I'm going to the game.

Correct " Father Ted " and that's why I have had to book leave from work and also will be going to the game.
Our last two games we have produced some form just at the right time

I think Huddersfield is the worst match up we could have had,I would have taken saints or cas above them,we've been comfortably beat by them twice in the league this season,really hope we can continue our form but I'm not confident.
