FC Retain CC Trophy with Warriors WinFor most neutrals today's Ladbrokes Challenge Cup Final was just too close to call as Hull FC defended their trophy against the most successful side in the competitions history, the Wigan Warriors.
Both coaches had near fully fit squads to choose from, many with cup winning experience, and fully understanding what today's massive event means to both sets of supporters and the game in general.
Wigan were the slight favourites with the bookies, but there really was nothing to choose between the sides, and the scene was set for a cracker of an encounter.

I don't see how you can call him average. Totally at a loss with that one. Why do you think that? I see a very, very effective kicker in play and of goals and was stand out Man Of The Match. If he is average i would hate to see what you think of our own because they can't lay a glove on him. Williams for all his potential is severely lacking something. Maybe the pay rise has gone to his head because he is nowhere near Snyed and the less said about Tommy L the better.

| He can't run, pass or tackle. However, he apparently is the best player on the field. How close do you think he is to an international call up?

Maybe he isn`t,but his kicking alone is worth every penny for F.C. By the way do you watch him every week to come to your conclusion?

Winning is all that matters in a final, I accept that. A more general point is that RL used to be about a lot more than relying on bombs for 80 minutes. The likes of Sneyd, Gale, etc are no doubt successful but I remember half backs being much more rounded than is currently required in the modern game.

And guess what. If he'd been wearing the cherry and white yesterday you'd now be the cupholders.

You do realise that Davies doesn't pick the official man of the match don't you and that it is members of the Rugby League Writers Association who vote for it.

Congrats on stating the obvious but it wouldn't turn him into a better player, would it? Great kicker undoubtedly but far from a great RL player IMO of course.

Take the blinkers off and quit the sour grapes.
I take it you are one of the many Wigan fans that don't turn up any more? If you had you'd have seen Sneyd doing plenty of running (and scoring )at the DW over the past 2 seasons

| Sneyd is a very good player very solid and a hell of a foot on him,england class im not so sure but if he isnt given a chance how will we know?
Hull deserved winners for my money,Wigan just didnt get going at all.

If you have read my other posts you would hopefully have grasped that I was aiming my ire at our marquee players by acknowledging that they were totally outplayed by Sneyd, despite his limitations as a player. Or perhaps you won't. I don't much care either way.

I wish we'd had Sneyd at Wembley, he was the difference and had a very effective game. Deserved LT winner.

Very true. You have to be able to gloat a bit after a big win, otherwise what is the point? But comments like that do make me cringe a bit. We are all very excited about where the club is heading, but we have a long way to go yet before we can come on here and have proper bragging rights over Wigan fans. We need to go and win the big one now.

|  that's reminded me of some silly Hull fans on Saturday after the game singing "f*** off Wigan, it's always our year".
We'll just shine up the SL and World Champion trophies then pal
* 99.9% of Hull fans were brilliant on the day though, happy for them.
