The Bookies make decisions based on hard hearted facts.

They all have you as favourites for both Saturday & to win the Cup.

It is us that are the underdogs.

The only people that don't seem to be giving Leeds a chance are Leeds fans.

I'm of the opinion that we'll win a close game or get hammered.

I said the same thing to my mate over the weekend.
Leeds will win a tight game by 4 - 6 points or Warrington will win by 12 - 16. Either of these 2 results could happen & I wont be betting on this game.

Does anyone know who has been allocated which end at Wembley?

Yes. Winners of our game are in the east stand

YES

I don't think either team are the underdogs, think it's fairly 50/50. Much has been made on here asking/suggesting that this Leeds team might not be able to win the big ones anymore. Which I agree is a valid question that we'll only see answered AT THE END of the season even if some have already decided the answer is no.

On the other hand even though some have pointed to Warrington's dominance in this competition in recent years as a main reason as to why they're favourites a question hangs over this current Wire team for me. Can they/Are they able to repeat it without Briers, Hodgson (the MOM's in the two finals vs us) as well as former captain Morley and starting prop Carvell? The Warrington line-up on Saturday will have a noticeable difference to the one which last lifted them a trophy.

Think in all the concentration on Leeds fortunes of late some haven't taken too close a look at Wire. They're missing very key men from their past successes. They went a good run of wins of late, but mostly made up of the bottom 6. For all the talk of how Leeds' defence has declined recently, since the start of July we've conceded 84 points compared to Warrington's 122. Whilst they got back on the horse against Catalans it came off the back of two losses where they shipped 34 points on average. People might complain about our sub prop options but if you've visited the Wire board this year then you'll see they hold Asotasi in a similar vain as Kirke on here.

Its a CC semi anything can happen Wigan hammered us with a scratch team at HQ yet we beat them in the CC a matter of weeks later.
This Team/Squad can beat anyone when we get it right I just hope we "turn up" and put a shift in.

Leeds will win. You're the better side and have been playing within yourself.

Same old story really when it comes to Leeds.

The bookies play it by the numbers.

Leeds are above warrington in the table, it's one a piece head to head and across the season so far leeds have picked up better results, so the bookies will favour leeds.

But anyone who has seen plenty of leeds in the last couple of months and also warringtons performances would be favouring warrington. Both have had poor results but warrington have shown far more form in that time than leeds.

So the general consensus amongst the neutral fans would be that warrington are going to do leeds.

Yep.if we turn up as we all we know we can we win imo.any of the recent form is served up and of course we can wave bye bye,but I think a lot of the teams focus of late has been on this game and I expect the big game leeds to come out the traps on saturday.

Whilst wire have been ok at times I have seen nothing myself for us to fear.they were dire against widnes and well beaten at home to wakey.fair enough they toughed it out in france but we all know leeds have a few more gears to go to and how they can lift for big games.

All if's and but's.we will see in a few days but im still confident of us pulling off the win.I think we have more big game players TBH.
