I'm only guessing at this stage but it seems likely.'"
Not a chance on earth our game will be the Saturday game, reason being is the Hull/ Wigan game will be seen as the bigger game of the two.

| Wire is the best we could hope for out of the other 3 clubs in the cup.
Hull are on fire, Wigan are improving and if Sandow misses the game, we have a decent chance.
Obviously we are massive underdogs but, that suits Wakefield.
I cant believe we are only one game away from a Wembley final, could this really be the year ?
This is already becoming our most successful season in the modern era and who knows.
For the religious fans, please pray to your god and for the rest of us, just cross everything and lets give the boys plenty of support over the next few weeks and see if we can help build some confidence and spirit for the games that lie ahead, starting with Saints on Friday.

| Four tough upcoming fixtures for Wakey before the semi - Stains, Pies Catalans away and a big potential top eight defining local derby against Cas. We've got four teams in the bottom half of the table with Hull KR, Salford, Cas and Huddersfield. So on paper Wakey should have their energy levels depleted more that Wire, lose more of the four games and possibly even be suffering from a lack of confidence that a series of losses might introduce. We should be favorites for the semi, but this is Warrington and we're capable of losing games that on paper we should be winning. Fingers crossed that the team start to put some good performances together and we go into the game with a confident, fit and healthy team, then maybe [imaybe[/i we could get to Wembley again

What 3 other clubs, surely you meant two.

| Pleased with the draw because it gives us the best chance of reaching the Final.
Thats not being disrespectful to Wakey but realistic.
We must remember that Wakey will give everything to reach their 1st Wembley final in many years. They have already beaten us only 4 weeks ago.

You make a good point but IF we beat saints next week and we to be fair have a better record than most v them we will be safe for top 8 so league wise job done as top 8 would a job more than well done and where not getting into top 4 so we would then look at the semi game as priority you on the the other hand need to keep winning to finish at least 2nd so it could be your players who are more tired.
Not for one minute do i think we will do you and every wire fan should be happy with draw but chester knows how to beat you so it can happen again.good luck for rest of your league games i quite like your lot and if or when you do us as a wakey fan from where we was last year we aint done bad

| I really can't believe we would lose this one. After three terrible semi final performances, I'm sure the players will be up for it. The final however will be a different matter, both Hull and Wigan seem to be streets ahead of the rest just now.

To be fair anyone outside of Warrington and Wakefield will think that the Wigan Hull game is the bigger of the two.

| Huddersfield would seem a decent venue and it's not used to seeing big rugby league crowds

The thing is we already have our points on the board and it looks like we are going to fall over the line due to the poor performances of those below us and to that point our aim of avoiding the middle eights has been achieved, it's a near impossible task for us to reach the top four so on the basis that hitherto our injuries are slight, we have the luxury of rotating our squad with a view to the semi's.
On the other hand your your team is heavily involved in the top four and cannot afford to give less than 100% as a home game will be vital, so come the semi's maybe your take on it might not be as you hope, personally I hope your team like you go into the game thinking they're favourites and have only to turn up to win and may well come unstuck.
