I know it's O/T but years and years ago we spent a whole tutorial discussing "How Wet is Water" No idea now what conclusions we came to but to use a well known cliche "It's all water under the bridge now".

Sorry about that - I'll get my coat.

PS pure water is neutral.

You could get the chance to re-visit this topic yet - imagine if Sheffield end up playing Leigh at LSV in the Grand Final?!

Mind you, with your play-off record there.........

I think Leigh are a great club and if the final was anywhere else I'd be rooting for a Sheffield v Leigh final, just think it would be embarrassing for the sport if it was played at one of the participants' home ground though.

Obviously through no fault of Leigh, and the LSV is a fantastic facility. Just another Red Hall brainfart.

Probably no need to worry.

- Halifax did the decent thing in the NRC, by getting knocked out in the first round, purely to avoid the embarrassment of playing a final at home.

- And we haven't won a single play-off game since 2004!!
