| Quote Coventry Warrior!="Coventry Warrior!"icon_eek.gif I hope that doesnt work against us, as with the first two games of the season the players minds maybe on the WCC game. '"
The fact we are playing Saints will focus the players minds on that and then the WCC after. Personally I think that arguement was a poor and easy excuse for Leeds last year because their poor form continued after the WCC as well.
Quote Coventry Warrior!="Coventry Warrior!"Why they cant have the WCC game at the end of the season is beyond me?'"
Because of the test matches. Ideally I would like to see them fit it in then though.

| Why does there have to be league fixtures scheduled for the weekend of the wcc? We manage to not have any league fixtures when the Challenge Cup Final is on.

| The fixtures have actually worked out fairly well this time. Howerver, I still don't agree with it and won't be going.

True it probably was a poor excuse but I would rather lose the first few games of the season, if it meant we would win the WCC. We could still manage to fit the WCC game in the week after the GF but then there would be more emphasis on the team travelling to play the game and excuses surrounging that.
Also with the game being at the end of the season, it gives the players who played in that season the chance to play in the biggest game in club RL. Instead of players for example like Feka moving to Salford and missing the chance to play in this huge game despite playing a part in the season, or Lima/Hoffman and Finch who could play one game and win a medal.
Suppose though thats a different subject altogether, but definately something that should be looked at in the future.

| This weekend is doomed. RFL will probably try to hide a poor attendance and ticket sales by giving several thousand freebies to the local Cardiff schools, Rugby clubs etc. I really dont like the RFL heirachy, they're so out of touch with the majority of supporters.

| It's not needed, not wanted and the RFL insist on it due to TV contracts.
Hopefully this one will be the last and our 14 team League can be a legitimate 26 round competition without the extra game.

Well it's a new tv contract for 2012 so maybe. Sky will insist the magic weekend stays though I think.

| I'm not a fan MM so for me it can be scrapped and we should just stick with the home and away fixtures. Those in the know say were playing to many games any way, so here's a chance to trim a week off the season.

| i see theyve gone back to the "derby" system after last years draw threw up a few awful games.
having said that.
warriors - saints...last on...highlight of saturday
but how things change in superleague.
who would have thought a couple of years ago that the hull derby would highlight saturday, with the leeds-bulls derby being a time filler.
