Thinking you have won trophies before it's actually been presented to you seems to be a lesson you've failed to learn over the last few years.

I don't think we've won it. It's just nice to come out our little spat on top.

Yes you do.

To be honest I think most of us would have felt the same if we had won.

out of intrest would you rather have the challenge cup or superleague?

A straight one or the other it would be the SL.

If you asked me about finishing top AND winning the CC versus just the SL I think I'd pick the 2 achievements.

You're lying.
You have no reason to be defensive and bite on crud like this today, you'll just make yourself look daft.

we were a shambles. the scoreline flattered us. the pack looked lightweight, the decision to play donald on the right clearly isn't working,gibson,sadly, is not good enough. the injuries have really hit him hard. defence was shocking,loads of missed tackles and we never had a good line. the passing was ponderous and the lack of runners was evident.
we played in the centre third nearly all the game despite the fact it was obvious it wasn't working.
the coaching staff need to take stock because at the moment we don't look a patch on last season.
saints were top drawer,fully deserved the win. lets hope they have a good run and injuries bite. we may need it

And judgeing by our early season efforts against them they have that in the bag as well this year.

That's the attitude that has left Saints with egg on their faces for the last two years as it happens.

Agree, similar to what I said above.

I haven't seen any evidence to suggest we can beat them this year so far (and that's not just based on head to head but our other performances). Have you?

Why? Its a straightforward matter of opinion. The best trophy is the SL however I'd rather win 2 trophies than one. Its not as if the CC is some mickey mouse piece of cr@p, it has a great history and is a great honour to win.

There was no evidence last year either, until it rained...
