True.
I meant in the past the players have seemed more motivated for a CC game than, let's say, a home playoff game ...

To be fair, I think we were the better team v Hull FC and that last grasp tackle...fine margins.
However, against Catalans we were shocking, really disappointing. No excuses, we shouldn't have been surprised how they were going to start as we were cheering them on v Saints in the double header semi only for them to do the same to us.

| Gutted not to be able to get to the game as I'm off to Bangor on Dee racing (watching not riding) with Auntie grrr!!!
It'll be like that episode of Whatever happened to the Likely Lads when the Bob and Terry were trying to avoid the England v Bulgaria football score, as our coach has a few Salford fans on it so I'll know before I get to my Sony C5 whether it's worth watching

Or if Gidley hadn't missed that sitter goal kick at the start of the 2nd half...

| Just seen a clip online of some Wembley memories and the Joel Monaghan try in 2012 is absolutely fantastic.
Some superb stuff in there though, the Briers pass for the Hicks try in 2009 is first class.

Once Gidley went off injured, the balance of the game changed.
Sandow was playing on with a severe knee injury and wouldn`t play another game until the Grand Final, when even then he still wasn`t ready and shouldn`t have played in the GF.

Danny Houghton has been dining out on that tackle for years, but Currie should still have scored regardless of the tackle. Fine margins, as you say, but it was Hull's day then, and hopefully it will be ours this time.

He was on the bench wasn't he? Brought on as a final roll of the dice.

Yes he came on to replace Dec Patton.

| Unfortunately I think that if Wigan get even 2 points ahead, they will win. They are the business and know how to win these games when the scoreline is tight, they can shut up shop and defend their way home. Our final wins have virtually all been blow outs, except maybe 2009.

A grim final. We scored early in the first half then we looked like we would not score even if Wigan went home. Not too dissimilar to the 2016 final.
