It's a shame this game has come a week before Wembley. Ordinarily a Saturday 3pm game on Sky on a dry warm day a few hours before the CL Final was a recipe for a few beers watching hours of Sport. However this has massively diluted the occasion and I doubt both sides will go full strength.
I do think Warrington are building nicely, Burgess is doing a good job and from listening to interviews its clear that the players are really buying into him and have the utmost respect for him. They have a lot of pace in the backline, a good set of forwards with Walker, Nicholson, Vaughan and Harrison to name a few and in my opinion the best 6 in the comp in Williams.
I think the Final will be a great game and its a huge test for Wigan

Plenty of options there, from that I'd say there's 5 nailed on in the 17. O'Neil, Leeming, Walters, Nsemba and Ellis. You pays your money and take a chance with naming the rest of the team
Wire are resting everyone, I expect Vaughan/Dufty/Drinkwater/Nicholson to miss out from their 21 so that’s pretty much 14 players rested.
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!

Blooming heck Stu, it should be a good/tight game, it is after all a Challenge Cup Final. Warrington have improved ten fold under Burgess and I do agree that Williams is pure class.
I'm leaning towards including Smith and one of French or Field. Outside of the cup, we're in a fantastic position to finish in the top 2 if we win this game.
