Players who aren't used to the Big Occasion/Finals Atmosphere, can sometimes let it beat them before the Ball is Kicked. But I hope it's a good close final to show off our sport.

it,s changed a bit since you were last there, there,s seats and everything

That the final is already only 12 days away may have a good/bad effect on players (of both sides). Good as in they aren't waiting around too long for the day and the build up is relatively short. Or bad that it comes around too quickly for some before they'd even had chance to let the knowledge of going to Wembley sink in and mentally prepare themselves.

I'd expect Leeds to be able to handle that like they have with so many GFs before. For Cas all this is new

Growing up in Garforth, Cas was always the local derby. I spent more time in Cas than Leeds in my late teens, starting to drink there, play football there. My Dad is a Cas fan (nothing historical, just the most convenient team after getting away from RU) so with that kind of history I really should be a Cas fan, but my mates were all Leeds fans and I lived in Cross Gates when I started playing open age RL, so I'm a Leeds fan. If it wasn't Leeds being in the final, I'd be cheering for Cas.

I'll only get to one English RL game this year, looks like I picked the right one

The actual Wembley experience on the day. Massive Crowd. Thick Atmosphere. The occasion itself, for players who aren't used to it, could phase them.



Exactly

I seem to recall an earlier post saying that we might crack under the pressure of being strong favourites at leigh, but you know what? Just when we think our team might slip up or struggle they seem to come out all guns blazing, one thing for sure, we may or may not be quite good enough on the day at wembley, but I can promise every Leeds fan that this Cas team respects everyone but fears no one.
It's got the potential to be an absolute cracker

I agree this Cas side are the real deal and I too think it will be a cracker and might go right down to the wire. Let rugby be the winner.

Or should that be "Thick Crowd. Massive Atmosphere"?

Not possible, they lost last weekend.

Could be, because unfortunately I can't make the Final
