For me, Warrington need to do something a little bit out of the ordinary to win. they are capable of that, but Hull if 'just' turn up and do what they have done most of the year, that will probably be enough.


At our best we have been the best team in Super League this season. We'll need to be at our best at Wembley and that includes shutting down the threat of Sandow. We also need to remain fully healthy.

We've kept him relatively quiet twice this season so let's hope we do it a 3rd time. I have a bad feeling about this one already, having been to 6 finals to watch us there and never having seen us win

Same. Forwards need to put in the shift of their lives and we need a fair crack of the whip from the ref.

Sandow certainly upbeat
"Outstanding today what a good game by the boys and the fans wow best fans in the league #Wembley #SorryNotSorry LetsAllDotheSandow"

Not sure what "the Sandow" is - is it that thing where he sticks his arms out?

Completely agree. If their pack can give him time and space to play, he could be the difference. Even if they don't he can create summat from nowt, which could be crucial if it is close. More likely, IMO, is that you'll strangle the life out of them for long periods, which'll be a very sound foundation.

Tony Smith is a pretty savvy coach though - Wire will be well prepared and will pose a serious challenge. On paper, it is an intriguing match-up, and weather permitting I'd expect it to be a compelling game.

Hull by 8 is my stab in the dark prediction.

The old addage keeps banging around my head "the pack gets you there but the backs win it". We have a huge pack and it's certainly got us there but can our backs win it? I say, YES, provided they all perform as well as they can.

that old saying is old our backs are as big as forwards now and our forwards are as fast and mobile as backs despite been big if we beat them upfront and not allow sandow and Gidley to play we win bring them on

Let's hope so. Would be tough to get over that.
