seeing that quote written certainly makes me think how daft the playoff is...once beaten they ought not to be in it at all.

| Outrage etc from fans of whoever ever we dare to..
The idea of playing Leeds twice was a nightmare two weeks ago but after sticking 40 on them and then watching them stuggle against a team with no halves, it seems less scary.
Got to beat them all sometime.

| I was certain we should go for Huddersfield but after watching last night I really don't care.
The game was a good spectacle but pretty poor at times with some awfully bad unforced errors time and again that kept destroying the momentum when it looked as though one team would start taking control.
Feel extraordinarily confident and hope it doesn't all blow up in our faces!

| We should do as TS suggested and toss a coin, and do it in full view of the sky cameras. Would take all of the heat out of the decision

I don't think they'll be any outrage from either side. Think it's a really tough choice for you, I can see reasons why you'd go either way and it's not a choice I would envy you having to make.

This is what I'd do. I think it's a 50/50 call for you and this completely avoids giving whoever you choose added motivation. I also think it would help push them to get rid of this ridiculous gimic.

true once beaten and out..its a knockout comp for gods sake....but some people on here still think its a great system and alls brill with the league structure(pillocks)..as for club call(another daft thing)something inside of me wants leeds cos of what i saw last night and want to wipe that smirk off sinfields face..2 days ago i would of sent leeds to that lots ground and let them rip each other apart..i can see an argument for picking hudds or leeds,end of the day its basically a toss of the coin..and may the best win....p.s just hope we dont get silverdud as ref or bent ham...

| I literally cant choose between the 2. there are positives and negatives either way. I really do hope we flip a coin live on TV, that to me seems the only way of doing it. in my opinion we will have to play Hudds and Leeds to win it, its just which order you want to do it in. flip the coin and roll on thursday!

| Either way, we can't win (unless we actually win of course).
Choose Huddersfield and lose and we'll be laughed at by fans of every other club for being so arrogant as to choose the league leaders. Choose Leeds and lose and we'll be laughed at by fans of every other club for being so stupid as to pick the playoff specialists.
Club call is just a pointless gimmick which benefits nobody.

| Warrington will have already chosen and are doing preparation work on how to beat them, while their opposition will have to wait an extra day. This could be a big advantage because the choice is not as clear cut as in other years.

Agree it's a stupid gimmick but you just have to get on with it. I don't think smith does you any favours by griping about it so much. In 2009 and 2010 leeds and saints didn't bat an eyelid, they got on with it, picked their oponents and made the final.
Smith's eagerness to condemn it gives out negative vibes.
