If its a repeat of the 1985 final (with a different result) that'll do me. Hope everyone travels safely and enjoys the day whatever the result. See you all at Wembley.

Firstly isn't good tonne talking about who is going to be left out rather than which kid are we going to chuck in next.

IMO Joel has to be left out. If he was match fit then it would be open for debate, Wembley is not the place to come back from injury when the players we have in that position are fit and playing well.

With a little reluctance I agree on the JT front.
A fully fit JT would for me be the obvious choice however, the CC is littered with players not being fully match fit and not performing on the day.
I'm sure that Isa won't let anyone down.

(cough cough) Radders....

19 man squad released - No surprises, it's the 17 who played v Salford + Davies & Joel Tomkins.

J Tomkins and Marshall to miss out if it were me picking the team.

Davies is in and Marshall is 18th man. The only question to be answered is Joel or Willie and we'll probably not know until Saturday.

Do you know which interviews, would be good to look at them

It was a Wigan TV interview this year. Not sure if it was when he returned or when he had a milestone game.

Interviewer said something along the lines of alot of games you've played you've played the full 80.

Micky reply, yeah not done that for a few years think those days are behind me.

Shaun Wane confirmed to the media after the captains run today that Isa will be on the bench. Looks like no place for Joel

I`m not a Wigan fan but how you can leave Isa out for Joel Tomkins beggars belief.
From my limited time watching Wigan this year Isa has been your standout player whilst Tomkins maybe down to injury has looked well off the pace and a letdown.
The only thing Joel does well is look after Sam and that could turn in Hulls favour.
Leave him out and Keep Isa in for me.

Defo Isa for me JT has been out injured and the last time he came back he was supposed to be fit but broke down from the groin injury we cannot and should not carry a passenger i am in the dont think we will win camp and to me this would hand it on a plate to Hull if he breaks down again,get him training the house down and let him off the leash at Stains

I think a fully fit Joel is better than Isa. His mobility has decreased but his passing, offloading and line running is better than Isa's. People have mentioned Joel's discipline which is poor but Isa has been niggly all season, getting involved in pointless handbags with opposition which has often resulted in us getting penalised.

Nothing too wrong with a bit of niggle. Murphy was the master of niggle. But we do lack quality and this has been declining year on year for a good while. Good to see 'Sam' using his rugby brain of late, but if he doesn't 'fire' it will be an hard day at the office I am afraid. I haven't posted for a while due to a lot of the dross on the field. But been a fan since the late 1950's.
