grand final doesn't represent who is the best team in league.last 2 years saints and cas were the champions in my book.the rl continues o reward second best.the game is a joke.

Best team at the end of the league stage yes, but not the best team in the whole competition. The competition ends with the Grand Final.

The winners of the Grand Final are the best team in the competition.

We are third on merit. The league table doesn't lie. We have exceeded most people's expectations me included. Are we going to stay there? probably not. Looking at the quality of the squad and injuries I'm very happy with where we are at the moment. For whatever reason some people are never happy.

We all know the squad isn't quite good enough to be top of the tree.
Sitting 3rd despite not playing brilliantly and never having a first choice team on the pitch isn't a bad achievement.

I’m laughing at how crazy it is

We have a negative points difference and we’re 3rd

Don’t you think that’s amazing after 12 rounds or whatever it is

Unreal

Also how many times this season have you said to yourself
“ watching FC play is a real pleasure “

I’m delighted we’re 3rd and we need to get on a roll where confidence is oozing

It's is unexpected true.
Tbh, I'm not sure I've ever said watching Hull is a pleasure, it's too stressful!

Were 3rd with a negative points difference and a million miles away from the Top 2

No we aren't.

As I was saying about yesterday being like the Fev game last season from an injuries perspective..

Well it did lie a little bit till Wigan got the points back.
