World Club Challenge : Sun Mar 01, 2009 7:48 pm  

Hate to see Aussies win, but hey-ho. An under-whelming balls up couldn't happen to a nicer club.

Manly deserved the win though. Thought they were the better side.. more than the scoreline suggests. Credit to Leeds for the late rally to bring some respectability but I still feel SL has some catching up at club level too despite the recent WCC results.

Good match to watch though.

On another note, the Bulls like other SL clubs will not doubt be keeping a close eye on negotiations between Manly and Orford go. I expect he'll re-sign though unfortunately.

Jusr waiting for the Leeds' fans responses:
Either
a) it doesn't matter its just a friendly anyway
or
b) we didn't want to win, we are concentrating on the league
or
c) they had an Aussie ref
or
d) at least we got there, you jealous Bulls fans, you are rubbish and are never going to get into a WCC again

Actually, can't argue with d really.

We don't have the shame of losing one though

Indeed, on a similar note didn't someone post a link a while back telling us we had Whatmough in 2010? If so, I can't wait.

Dont think we are in any position to golat at the minute.

I had a feeling Manly would win this one, they are a very classy outfit. Leeds made a good fist of it though. I shudder to think what Manly would do to us right now. They would probably put on a hundred.

I think we need to put together an RAB committee to kidnap Hasler.

I know. I'm not gloating. Just having a little harmless fun.

What would we give to be reaching WCC finals at the moment...

It was the poster as a Wigan fan and to his/her credit they have been saying the same thing now for a while.
