I think Clarkson or Ward will drop out!

I'd go with Burrow on the Bench, McGuire at 7!

Usually I've said we should go for Lunt to start with Burrow coming off the bench. But having watched the Wire/Saints game when Wire didn't really get going until the 2nd half and Saints should've been much more clear on the scoreboard at halftime then maybe we should start Burrow and see if Wire are a bit cautious coming out of the traps(being their 1st GF). Try get off to a steaming start ala CC Semi vs Wigan and get points on the board early, Burrow obviously offers more in attack to do this.

Assuming the ref won't, we've got to stop Warrington's attacking move which involves multiple players obstructing the defensive line.

To balance the bench Clarkson should get the nod ahead of Ward....still learning to run in the pack and we have enough ball players already, so for me we need the extra running forward.

The defence will have to be at least as good as against Wigan, but I can't see it being a low-scoring game as Wire have plenty of points in them. The best way to pressure their attack is to get ahead on the scoreboard. Its relatively easy to put your planned moves on smoothly when you're ahead - a different kettle of fish if you're chasing the game.

The CC final and wire-Sts games both proved that Warrington are quite happy being level or even slighty behind at half time - Leeds' best chance will be to either get an early lead or stay with them until much later in the game (like the play off win last year).

My biggest doubt having watched the Wigan game again is where we can get enough points from. Sinfield controlled the game very well, but its hard to imagine McGuire alone giving us that much more potency in attack. We didn't look like scoring many points at any stage against Wigan.
