I'm sure that Warrington will rally to play better against us the week after the WCC.
If we beat Manley, we could easily lose to the Wolves at the HJ, remember our poor performance there last year, I certainly do.
I think I'm correct in saying that the winner of the WCC has always lost their next Superleague match, no doubt tvoc will either confirm or refute that.

That's a massive tick in the refute column unfortunately.

Over the last five seasons (just as an example) the WCC Champions (All SL) have won their next SL fixture with the exception of you know who.

2008..... Leeds.....Lost to Castleford
2007..... St Helens..... Beat Bradford
2006..... Bradford..... Beat Wakefield
2005..... Leeds ..... Beat Hull
2004..... Bradford..... Beat Wigan

No he didnt, he was struggling to get up, yes using his forearm with intent, but none connected, he could have induced a fight, but didnt. He wanted a quick ptb, whats he meant to do just lie there until cats player got off of him?

They should have held another sit in after the match, that was amusing. Far better than the walk out they did do instead.

Just reminds me so much of How we used to be before the young uns came through the ranks and made us what we are today. Big names, no bottle and a crowd baying for blood. An absolute shocker again tonight which doesnt bode well for the season!

Ive said it for a few years now they are Leeds of old.

I said to a Hull KR fan that Tony Smith would win SL with Warrington within 2 years.
