Come on now Richie. You normally post a lot of insightful comments but every now and then a duff one like this.

There's no dummies here, just some subjective comment. Fev may well win the league again this year and make it 3 times on the trot - which will be some achievement. They may well get to the final again, we'll see. Over the last 3 years we've done ok and I don't see Fax as dominating any aspect of life outside SL.

Again I hear the choke comment. On Sunday we didn't choke. That would imply we lost a game we should have won. We were never ahead in that game and being honest didn't deserve to be. The one choke was 2010 for me.

Come on Richie, I know you like to employ some wit blah blah blah, but just try and accept sometimes we might have a different but appropriate opinion to you.

The grand final is a great day out, just like Blackpool and any other cup final. But so were the premierships pre super league.

I get much more satisfaction from seeing my team come top of the pile. In my eyes its means your the best, and if we slip up and fax win the league I would admit fax were the best this season even if we won the GF.

being crowned the champs for winning the GF in both SL and championship is just wrong. was nothing wrong with the old premierships was still a great day out and nice to win

I think is safer to say that Fev will finnish top again this year than Fax will finnish second as we have some tough games are you are right to be proud of them.

I for one will have no problem with saying well done to the Rovers.

PS: Strange how all this ended up in the "Bradford latest thread", can't be much to talk about.

I would say that too if my team had a habit of choking in big games.

yep just like you say to win the grand final is best because you dont have the ability to win the league.

I suppose the underdog always has its day

The RFL make the rules, they say the best team is the one that wins the GF.

and so they do. Doesn't mean I have to regard the GF winners as the best in the comp that year tho - I don't.

If Fev lose to Sheffield in a couple of weeks, I think Fax will win the league. That is more than a reasonable possibility. I (and many many more) will regard Fax as the best in the league if they achieve that. The GF is just another day out to me.

Doesn't mean anyone else has to agree with me like.
