No, you want Wire to lose because you don't like your neighbour club.

The way Catalans have turned their disasterous start to the season around, dont be surprised to see them in the final

All 4 teams will be up for it next week.

Honestly don’t know what to expect from Leeds next week. We have history of belying our league form in knockout games but this is a different lineup/coach nowadays.

Being a Wigan fan I’d love Catalan to beat St Helens though I really can’t see it happening. I’m expecting a St Helens V Warrington final though wouldn’t be too surprised to see Leeds get there.

Leeds don't have the firepower to beat Warrington.

Catalans at full strength do have the firepower to beat St Helens, but I am not optimistic if Kenneth Edwards is banned. He adds a lot of fire and brimstone to the Catalans edge attack.

It'll need wire performance of epic incompetence (Cas 2017 GF x 2) for Leeds to make it. Saints have the other sewn up IMO.

How many have we had of late in RL? Genuine question.....68,525 last year between the 2nd and third best supported clubs in the country and not a French or Canadian side in sight.

...in dilapidated stadiums?

Wrong, I’d rather them win as I think a Saints vs Warrington Final would be much more enjoyable for everyone and I think it’d be the easier game.

Of course but for Leeds there’s almost more of a need for them to win with the way this season has gone.

Catalan are capable of beating Saints but their problem is the play a very "niggly" game and consequently concede a lot of penalties.
I expect it to be tight for the first hour then Saints to gradually get on top

No not really, won't change most minds on how this season has gone and we've had plenty of trophies to celebrate including a couple of CC recently. Catalans have no chance of top 4 so this is there big chance not only this year but best shot of a trophy in 10 years. Saints haven't won or even reach a CCF in a decade and are so far ahead in the league they could rest players either side of Wembley and have a great shot of a treble.

That’s rubbish, so you’re saying that winning the Challenge Cup won’t improve what has been a dreadful season? Also there’s a lot of players with futures on the line so this is a huge chance for them.

So is making sure they stay in SL and most futures will already have been decided by now so the CC won’t have a barring on that. Winning the CC improves any of other 3 teams season just as much if not more.
