I was thinking about the possible team we'll put out at Wembley and I can't see it differing much from yesterday's 17. Perhaps a swap between Penny or Lineham and Toby King is the only change I can foresee, barring injuries of course. Don't think Dodds will be fit in time.

That's because you've somehow never won at Wembley and want to put that right. Completely understandable. Any Wires fan who says they would rather win a trophy that we've already won three times in recent memory, and will have to win four games - only one of which will be against another top four SL team - to win, than win the trophy that you earn the right to contest over a 30 game season followed by two high intensity games against other top four sides to secure a title the club hasn't had for over six decades is either lying or just really weird.
I said in 2012 that us and Leeds won the wrong finals (remember their Golden Generation had won five Grand Finals before that but not won the Challenge Cup) and the scenario is true now. If us and Hull end up contesting both finals (I realise Wigan, Saints and possibly Catalans will have a lot to say about that), and win one each as us and Leeds did four years ago, then Hull winning at Wembley and us winning at Old Trafford would be the right way for all concerned.

Well I ain't lying so I must be weird then.Been OT twice + even if we'd have won 1 of them I wouldn't have changed my opinion.Doesn't even come close compared to Wembley but hey ho that's just my opinion.

| Hull will slow down your ruck speed and then batter you up the middle, leaving Sneyd to turn you around constantly and add to your fatigue. Your PTB speed was the key to your win yesterday.
And Wakefields paper-defence, o'course. See you at Wembley!

you would be hard pushed to find many Hull fans in disagreement with this, that's it then sorted you let us win at Wembley we will let you win at old Trafford simple just get Smithy to ring Radders lol

| Are we talking about the same Hull team that have lost on six occasions this season, including twice against Leeds and another against Huddersfield, or is this some group of unbeatable super humans also going by the name of Hull FC?

dont recall any bother from fc fans at wembley or cardiff from the last 3 cc finals we have been at!
maybe its just you!
i expect it to be a typical cc final day (hopefully without the rain), fans mingling having a few expensive watered down bevvies, swapping stories, rumored signings, (which will be way off the mark btw) from fans of each club thats in and around wembley
hope all wire fans and fc have a great day and hopefully we will get that monkey off our back

What did he say wrong, only challenged you to stop Houghton, it's not as if he just asked you for a fight, very strange reaction.
