I fancied Hull to nick the win against Wire when they were writen off by most and do get the feeling that their name is on the cup this year so i will go for them to pinch another tight, low scoring game.

Thought it would have been simple Wigan and KR fans want Wigan, everyone else FC.

But you'll want Wigan, because you've already told us you don't like FC.

Wigan are a good team, and deserve their favourites tag, but their form is not great at all. If Hull can bring the same intensity they did to their semi and if Wigan don't buck their ideas up dramatically, Hull will likely win. Two medium-sized ifs, but 5-2 seems very generous. At evens, I'd not have bothered, I'd have thought twice at 7-4 as having a feeling you might just do it, wouldn't have stopped it feeling like hedging.

I'm genuinely not doing that thing of saying you should win to set you up for a bigger fall. You're underdogs, but not 5-2 underdogs, IMO.

Hoping Hull do it, preferably by the 6-10 points i got 10/1 for! But as the weeks gone on i think it could hinge on what options Hull will have available at centre, they are looking bare there at the minute now

Yeah looks like we may have to settle for Yeaman and Crooks.

Exactly, Senior did zilch in the first half, couldn't tackle, couldn't even push off properly..wonder if Lockers is still carrying an injury...

i think it would be good for the game as a whole if hull won. they have some big game players, and brought ellis back for exactly this sort of impact and occassion. hull have come through some hard games to get there, and deserve the win for defeating catalan and wire. wigan by 10-14 though

Quote: GIANT DAZ "Wigan WILL win cos their fans are insisting they have lost these league games on purpose cos they dont wanna finish 1st in SL and cos they are going to win the cup by 'saving' themselves......

I hope Hull win for the sake of RL more than a personal preference.'"



Talking rubbish again, Stop making stuff up.

All you'll see on our board is bewilderment at our dramatic loss in form and the anger over losing star players has started to surface because of it.

Totally agree with this.

If Wigan regain their form then i'd make them strong favourites to win but anything else then i can really see Hull beating us and i'm very worried about this game as there's alot of quality on the Hull side.

Hopefully it's the game that snaps us back into form but i'd say this final is very evenly balanced.

If you support Wire, you'll sell your kids to the BBC before you'll want a Wigan win.

Bless though, you're still a little hurt I don't like your club either.

Don't be so patronising. You've already stated you don't like us but if it gives you a lift, well good for you.

I'm hoping for a draw and Hull to win the replay.
