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!

The packs are very close like I said, I suppose when comparing the starting individuals they are nearly even, you've got the edge in Morley, Harrison and Westwood but the Giant's take the others, and like you say the Giants bench in just that little bit stronger. One of the reasons in which I don't think you'll get on top of them like you did us is due to the style the giants play, against us Morley and Carvell ran it in hard finding there feet quickly with Monaghan using the quick ball to exploit the unset markers and defensive line, however against the Giants they'll slow you down a lot, not allowing Morley and Carvell to get those quick play off the balls that Monaghan exploited so well against Wigan.

a lot depends on the ref if its Ganson he won't let them get away with it, siverwood mind...................

I was simply pointing out that your summation (big word there, not thick) of the wires chances might be coming from a person whose opinions are clouded by bitterness not somebody who is being completely subjective, and if you thought wigans pack could match the wires you clearly aren't.

2 of the top 4 forward packs.

In all honesty, i dont personally care who wins the final.
Sort Of Cheshire v Yawkshurr? Makes no difference to me [size[i(even though i do live in the pretty part of Cheshire these days!)[/i[/size
It aint us And it aint Saints - So it matters not one bit!

Why would anyone in the general public, i.e. not rugby league fans, care if Wigan and Saints are not there? Your question is a little mundane and pointless and tbh very disrespectful, why can't some fans from the so called "big four" not understand that this fixture demonstrates that rugby league may be becoming more competitive in this country, which can only be good for the game and it's profile
