| Westwood may well start loose but he's only going to be spelled and used as a prop.
Westerman had good hands and is used like a stand off as is Currie.
Ratchford will almost certainly feature at loose if Westerman misses out.
Penny hasn't been 18th man for the last 2 weeks for nothing. Dropped on disciplinary not form.

| As for Snyde....he isn't the threat that steers the pack, it's Danny Houghton.

| Quote: Thelonius "I don't want to belittle Hull's two results in the run up to Wembley - a wins a win. But whilst Widnes and Catalan may well be current top eight sides, neither are playing with top eight form. Widnes had lost 13 and won only 4 since we beat them in Round 7, and Catalan had 1 win (against Widnes) in their last 7 before having their tummies tickled at your place. Take away their impressive starts to the season and both teams would probably be fighting it out in the qualifiers .
I just hope that by the final hooter on Saturday the better team has won rather than being due to a refereeing decision, lucky bounce of the ball or injury (unless of course we win due to a referee decision or lucky bounce - I'd take that
One of your two before wembley was against wakey who were hammered the following week by widnes so I reckon our game was probably a bit more challenging. catalans were awful on the night but taking on their pack is never a pushover so I'm happy with those 2 games where we didn;t pick up any injuries which is the most important bit for me

| I can understand the calls for Penny to come back in to the side, but I'm not sure how comfortable I am in him coming in 'cold' so to speak. Russell & Evans to continue for me, don't see the sense in making structural changes or bringing back players who aren't match ready at this point.

| Don't see the point in you bringing Penny back in on such a narrow pitch.

| think this Wembley pitch being this big or this narrow is urban myth, its not much different to most pitches maybe a bit bigger but nowt drastic, its the occasion what saps the energy imo

Your dead on here buddy, the stadium makes the pitch look huge. Leeds suffered the pressures of not winning there although they had a title winning team the occasion always got to them. Those that cope with this will always win, on that front one might say Warrington have the edge after winning three recently, but not many in this squad can say that!
I am looking forward to a great game with two very evenly matched teams

| The more Hull talk about never winning at Wembley the less likely they are to win it. Like us with the GF.

| I understood that Wembley width was either 67 or 68m - the maximum allowed and the length was also at maximum or within 1-2 meters allowed.
I'd love to see Penney on that I suspect TS may have other ideas

| For me not playing penny if he is available must surely bring ts under the spotlight a little were going into a game where many believe we must play them out qide n tire the pack out it would be a hard task with two recognised wingers and two centres playing in the correct position. If it's forced by injury so be it but I don't feel that's the case with penny

.....Saints at home springs to mind. Rather play them away.
