| In 2009 wire had nothing to play for in the league, well out of the play off places, which were a top 8 format back then. The next two games before this years challenge cup are going to give us an insight on how the final will go. As good as this years Wigan team is, you just feel that they’ve not quite hit the form from last season. But on the day anything can happen, like the cup triumph against Saints in 19. I think Burgess will like Wire been underdogs and will use that as extra motivation.. in an ideal world I’d like 4 points and a cup win, that really would set us up going into reminder of the season

| With the H.I.A. protocol that now exists, and only 7 days prior to the final, I expect that Warrington and Wigan will rest a lot (Most? of their players for the league fixture that precedes the Challenge Cup Final.
There is also the possibility of suspensions handed-out by Cullen et al. which have been a complete lottery up to now which will affect team selection for the league game.

| Good point Boss.
I think both teams should put out '2nd string' teams and then - given Cull now has a mural in Warrington - the panel should hand out 1 match suspensions to all the Wigan players 1-17, and give Sam B a touchline ban for one match......
Seems fair to me.

| Excellent point from Boss Hog (sorry, quote button has crapped out again) about the HIAs protocol. Thewlis, especially, needs to be rested for the Wigan league game. He has taken so many head knocks, he is starting to look like Rocky Balboa in the 12th round. If we win the cup, expect Josh to raise the trophy above his head and yell: "Yo Adrian, we did it!"

| What we do against Wigan in the league next week I’m not bothered, just want us to beat Catalan this week. Then beat Wigan in the final.
