And I say again... neutrals and occasional CC followers had lost interest this year as they saw it as another St Helens hammering.. however the "southerners" who usually go with me are all excited about the fact it is 2 new teams... and nobody can call the winner. So, it is good for the CC!

You're biting too hard. This is a handful of people either annoyed that Wigan aren't there, or trying to wind Wire fans up.

Most folk will be glad there's a final that will be difficult to call for once, and in which the usual suspects - Saints and Leeds (and Wigan for old time's sake) do not figure.

Are you honestly asking us to believe that you would have supported Wigan against Hudds had we won the SF? If so, why was I looking at loads of jeering Wires fans on the way home from our Catalan defeat?

Just looking at the odds for the Final and I can't believe that wire have been made favorites, I mean come on the tables shows that the Giants are the better side and there performance on Sunday proved that. The wire pack destroyed are's on Saturday however they won't do that to Huddersfield in the final, in fact the exact opposite may happen and for this reason along with there fantastic defense I'd back the Giants to win.

I remember many years ago, in the WCC at central park, wanting wigan to win, and normally do hope a local side wins...

AHA!!

I agree with you. Its like last weekend, Wigan were favorites

but last weekend we had won 5 of our last 6 games, beating the current SL champions and narrowly losing to saints, also were the team sitting in 4th position and probably the form team in the league. We were rghtly favourites.

Hudds however are sitting 5 places above you in the table, well clear in the top 4 of the league and have jut beaten the cup holders and the best team in the league. Hudds should be odds-on favourites on paper but it's a final where anything can happen i suppose.

I'm sorry, but there is no way their pack will destroy ours. They have a good pack but ours is still better.

Did you back Wigan to win last sat?

Well that's your opinion but it ain't mine, for me Huddersfield have the better pack, there's not much in it but they have the edge plus there style of play will match up against yours well.



Funnily enough I did back my team to win last week, but only if they managed to get on top of the wire pack, they didn't and we know what happened.

Fair enough if that's your opinion. Would you mind explaining yourself though

They have the edge on the interchange, mainly due to Crabtree, and I haven't listed them below but I think our starting options more than cover that

Adrian Morley - 8 - Keith Mason
Michael Monaghan - 9 - Scott Moore
Gareth Carvell - 10 - Darrell Griffin
Louis Anderson - 11 - Stephen Wild
Ben Harrison - 12 - Liam Fulton
Ben Westwood - 13 - David Faiumu

So you believed that there was a chance that Fielden and the bouncy castle in the skull-cap would dominate Morley and Carvell???????? Better for us if you do back Hudds you sad deluded man!
