2008 was sweet.You could just sense the confidence and cockyness oozing from the saints fans before the game.(rightly so they did have a top year.) this was their game, they wouldnt be caught cold ala 2007 and we were just guests at their party.
I will never forget the feeling leaving the stadium after the win,singing and dancing in the torrent of rain and the shell shocked Saints fans.
Being the underdog and winning is good, more of the same please

| Back in June when the Rhino's were 9th in the SL table me and a pal placed a £40 bet at 12/1 that we would win the GF
I'm not sure if we were being ballsy or stupid at the time

We weren't even guests last year, it was more like we were uninvited gate crashers that only turned up to spoil the party.

| Actually Leeds were a stupid 16/1 after beating Wakefield.

I don't think that my shirt could have handled that amount of spillage

| Warrington are deserved favourites. Doesn't mean we have no chance, but you can't assume Warrington will freeze or play ultra-conservative through nerves. I'd hope to hell the players and coaches are assuming they'll be playing a Wembley-standard Warrington, and plan to have to somehow beat them at that level.

| That's because everybody knows we are the big game kings when it comes to finals, and Leeds have history freezing in the headlights when they take us on in a major final.
Also it gives Sinfield/Brian McDermott licence to give their speech about "everybody wrote us off, it was only them lads in the dressing room that had belief" if you win.

How does it feel Sally? Getting ready for your first Grand Final. Slightly nervous, a little giddy? Prone to spontaneous outbursts of laughter?
I know it's fourteen years ago and I was only in my early twenties, had to travel to the game from University in Glasgow I did. But what a journey. What a day.
Enjoy it.

It feels a bit surreal. For most of my Warrington supporting life I never expected that we would win a major trophy, in the Cullen era even after Simon Moran had taken over the club and put money in, got big names like Gleeson, Johns, Morley etc it always felt like we were chasing the unreachable dream a bit like Newcastle United in the 1990s under Keegan.
The 2009 Challenge Cup Final was the big one for me, I thought that could potentially be our only chance to win a trophy, I was really nervous before that, didn't particularly enjoy the occasion or appreciate the build up, once we went ahead early on I sat there counting down the clock waiting for the hooter. Once we had won that then for me it took the pressure off, a lifetime ambition had been realised to see Wire win a major trophy even if we never won again.
I was a lot more relaxed in the 2010 and 2012 Challenge Cup finals, I felt like there was nothing to lose as I'd already seen a trophy and if we lost to Leeds I could take it whereas I would have felt really shattered if we had lost to Hudds in 2009. I feel the same about this GF. Looking forwards to a new experience but I'm not afraid of losing, if we lose I can accept it and say fair play to Leeds, we are seeing a historic group of players that will be talked about for a long time.
