There are arguments for and against playing any team. The route you describe is hard but we have beaten both of them + KR at points this season. I’d also be concerned playing Salford or Leigh in a knock out game too.
I’d also rather knock Wigan out before the GF and play KR who have little experience on the big stage. I fear playing Wigan in the GF will just turn out like previous GF’s and the CC final. I hope i’m proven wrong.
