| I don’t mind either way however I think KR had slightly more of a harder run so to me deserve it.

| Leigh may be a small town in Wigan but they are Lancashire and a home town club in this final
Plus, they bloody deserve it!!!!

| Leigh all the way.
Keep it in the area. We've done loads in local schools etc with it and hopefully Leigh can do the same. Keep the RL fire and it can only be good for us.

| Not really fussed. I think it’s a great story either way and it’s a great advert for ambitious owners.
I do fancy HKR to win it but would be happy for Lam, Charnley, Hughes and co if Leigh take it home.

| I really do like the way Leigh have gone about things this year, and HKRs development is a good story also
Both teams are very solid with good pros throughout their squads with a Sprinkle of "X" on both side
I think Leigh just edge it for me
And for Family reasons I'm 100% behind Leigh
Trigger (Neil) spent over 20 years at the club as player/coach/ceo and can't help but feel chuffed/proud and happy after the many lows along the way.
I've briefly gone into it on the new wigan way podcast on this week's episode, and Derek, the clubs and the councils gesture to provide travel/tickets/food etc for 500 disadvantaged families is exceptional
By the way, 52 years ago my Dad went to Wembley watching the Leigh/Leeds final and he had a Big Bet on Leyth that day
Rang my mum and told her to get a train to Brighton on the winnings and met her there.
9months later Voila - I turned up !
They'd waited 11 years for a little un and got lumbered with me coz of Alex Murphy et Al!!!!

| Can they not both lose? Thought both sets of fans let themselves down when they won

| It's more a case of who I want to lose (slightly) less.
Can't stand Leigh, but this year in particular, the HKR fans have started acting like they're some kind of a big club.
Arrogance with nothing to back it up.
So it's Leigh for me (not that I'll be watching - I'll just check the result)

| On the Final, I think it's great that we've got two unfancied sides; they are there on merit, and I won't be taking any notice of the sad-socks complaining about a less-than-full Wembley.

| Great story Jukes.
I’m behind Hull, I know a few of the lads but also I think they deserve a reward for how they have grown as a club into this position over the years.
Leigh are a bit of an overnight success and fair play to them but I just think KR have paid more of their dues to find themselves in this position.
I also think it would be a great reward for SKD who I think had been one of the all time best recruits of the SL era and it would be good to see him go out with a trophy in his last season.
Having said that I can’t see any other result than a Leigh win. Most of all I hope it’s a great contest and spectacle in front of a packed Wembley.

| Leigh for me. I ripped them to shreds for their kit and still do but I would love for them to go on and win a cup final 2 weeks after losing their biggest one against us
