| Leeds to do a job here? Brian Mac to go down in Leeds folklore as masterminding the most unlikely victory since Wellens winning a 100m race?
Warrington at -12 looks awful tasty though.
Prediction: Warrington 36 - 8 Leeds

| think warrington will blow them away to be honest.
I'd rather face Leeds in the final if we were to get there but I think the Warrington players deserve it more.

| Agreed. It reckon it's impossible to see beyond a convincing Warrington victory for this one.
I reckon the Loiners feel the same way. Their trolls' absence from this message board in the last day or so, when almost everyone else in the league has had a field day, is very telling.

| Would love it if they could, but don't see it happening. Wire will have far to much up the middle for them I think.
I think Leeds might put a few points on them than expected, but ultimately Wire will make it through fairly comfortably.

| Wire should be far too good for Leeds but Leeds spoiling tactics may make the game a lot closer than people think, particularly if the appallingly bad refereeing that has blighted this play-off series continues. If Leeds are given as much leeway as Catalans were against us then it could be interesting.
Expect McGuire and Bailey in particular to do their usual.

| Leeds could trouble them with the form they're in but Wire will win comfy enough in the end.
Wire are obviously big favourites to win the whole thing but you never know how teams will cope with a final. On the big stage with 75000 on fighting for a trophy you believe deserved to be yours can do funny things to a team.

| I hope Warrington beat the out of em. Everything about Leeds stinks. Bailey getting warned 4,575 times for the same offence is a prime example. I would much rather play Warrington if we are lucky enough to get through even though it would be a tougher game.

I can't help thinking that the club call team are in a no-win situation. For me it's a complete gimmick, but also, potentially, a costly one. Whoever you pick will be antagonised by the decision, so all you can really do is either flip a coin or go for the lower-placed team - only in those circs will you not give them extra reason to do you. The whole thing is nonsense, in my opinion, and the sooner we do away with it, the better.
However, I'd have been amazed if Warrington had chosen us. Whatever anyone says about our recent form, we are still a better team than Leeds, and Wire know this - imagine how they'd have felt if they'd failed to reach another final in 2011 because Wigan denied them. At least if they lose to Leeds, they could argue they chose the weaker team.

are u havin a laugh saying you will bring more fans, you might have been there before and got the t shirts but you certainly wont bring more fans, wire v wigan semi at widnes, wigan sent there tickets back and wire ended up buyin them, the stadium was a 3 to 1 ration wire over wigan, and some wires were even in the wigan end.

| Warrington are rightly favourites to win the GF, as their record this season proves. However, the Leeds team which coughed and sneezed its way through to the summer is a far cry from the Leeds of the last couple of weeks.
It's all about timing and confidence Pie People, nowt is won in March, and we are seeing flashes of the old and yes, arrogant style of play which brought us so much success in the past. Including the obligatory forward passes! If we could cut them out it would be worth another 2/3 tries a game!
Do I think we can beat an on form Wire? No, not this year, but I think the game will be a lot closer than previous encounters, so I'll settle for a cracking game of RL. Just a shame we weren't playing your lot.....I would have been confident about that one!

Is that because of all the success that you've had against us this season then?
