Superleague grand final

Post by Lip » Wed Oct 09, 2024 6:27 pm

Saturday night Old Trafford. 6pm kick off.

Warriors v Hull K R....

Really looking forward to this. Should be a blood and thunder no holds barred contest with the Warriors being the favourites to win . Hull KR have been fantastic this season and will be going all out to upset the odds and will have a huge following for their first appearance at Old Trafford for many years. Think it will be a really close contest with some cracking rugby and good try scored.
Warriors by 4pts for me. (Fingers crossed)

Wigan for me, too much all round ability then there’s French and Field. However I hope HKR turn up and do a much better job than Leigh in the semi final. Super League needs more competition away from Wigan and St Helens.

Suspect Leigh’s two tough games in the previous two weeks, beating St Helens then Salford in what were effectively both eliminators, had taken a lot out of them. Wigan had had a week off and nothing like the intense end to the regular season.
Hull KR have been a revelation this year …just hope they can bring their best on Saturday. Their semi-final was tougher than Wigan’s but I do think they will be very much up for it given that it’s their first Grand Final. I think Wigan will win but hope I’m wrong.

On Sky+ 6 o'clock kick off so I'll almost certainly give that a watch (if I can rip myself away from Croatia v SCotland footy ;) )

Wigan favourites but should be a tight enough game - hopefully in the balance until the end.

Sky Sports is showing The Wheelchair Rugby League Grand Final on Sun 13th Oct at 5pm.

Leeds v Halifax. 2 of the powerhouses in the WhRL world. Should be a cracker.

Good shout. The England France final in the last Wheelchair RL World Cup was absolutely superb. It's a brilliant sport to watch..Rollerball !!!

Egg chasing lite. I’d they are going to put the rugby be on at least put proper rugby union on. No one is interested in Leagie apart from people around the M62

Not true. Proper sport, proper professional athletes. Odd thing to say really.

Rugby Union has to be the dullest sport on the planet. That is literally egg chasing. All they do is scrum, kick it, run after the egg and then start playing once in a decent position. Big bulks pushing each other around. As dull as watching cars drive round in a circle for hours!!
