| Hull, because just like last season, it's Warringtons year.

| Smith is a very good coach who plays the game in the right spirit - I hope Warrington win.
I think Hull's 3/4s look vulnerable to me not sure how they will go under the pressure of a cup final

They will still on the pitch, celebrating the semi win against Wigan, half an hour after the game ended. Says it all for me.

| I'll probably make up my mind while I'm watching it. I usually do that when I'm neutral.
It's a funny one because doing the double with the CC final just before the big playoff games is very difficult. I've said before that the only thing worse for GF chances than losing the cup final is winning it. In that regard I think Warrington have a better chance of holding it together than Hull should they win. I think if Hull win then their season is over.

For the resources Warrington have, their three quarters are nothing to write home about.

I would say both teams are easily matched on paper, it will come down to whoever handles the occasion. I just hope Hull put on a better show than 2013, that game could have put a glass eye to sleep!

I'm pretty sure they will, much different side now and that Hull were like 7th/8th in the league compared to top this year. They also are having close contests with Warrington lately. Both won the away fixture in 2015 by a drop goal and Hull have won both this year by 2 & 7 points respectively so they've got a gameplan that works well against Warrington.
The 3/4's I don't believe is a main factor and is both teams weaker area. Both set of forwards are strong so it'll be down to the halves. Sneyd needs to have a massive game for Hull. Whoever wins I reckon the Lance Todd is going to either Sneyd, Gidley or Sandow unless somebody scores a hat trick.
Tony Smith's sides as I've mentioned before on here lose a lot in big playoff/cup games when the scoreline is close (with the 2004 GF being the exception to the rule) and wins come from getting a few scores clear. If it's even or very close approaching the final 20 then I think Hull will do it and going by those recent results listed above it looks likely it'll be close.

| Hull. Would be nice for Gaz Ellis to get a winners medal before he retires. Just had bets on Minichiello for 1st try AND Lance Todd.

| I don't particularly mind which team wins it, as I think it will spur on whoever loses to win the Grand Final.

FC Finally Win At Wembley in an Absolute ClassicOne of the biggest afternoons of the season saw Hull FC take on the Warrington Wolves at Wembley in the much anticipated 2016 Challenge Cup Final.
It was Super League's top side against the one placed second, the top two sides in the country at the moment. With the bookies finding it a difficult one to call, the stage was set for an absolute classic.
Warrington have won the Challenge Cup on eight occasions, the most recent in 2012, with Hull FC having picked up the famous silverware on three occasions with the most recent being in 2005 when the final was held in Cardiff. Most notably, FC had never won at Wembley.
