We'll be going down, its a good week-end away. For the first time don't want either team to win. Can't see anything but a big Wigan win.

Hope lauitiiti gets picked and has a blinder

i don't understand why people don't like sam tompkins. he's a very exciting player.

he's not the messiah, and it's not his fault that sky fawn over him like he's some kind of historical great.

I'll be there.

Every year since mid 70s.
Decided to go to the zoo with my mum in 77 and 78. In hindsight I think I got the better deal those years.

I think it's a combination of the circle-jerk that ensues amongst the Sky commentary team every time he touches the ball, together with his sometimes questionable attitude to the rules of the game; once he stops milking penalties by feigning injuries and holding tacklers down, I'm sure people will grow to love him, or at least grudgingly respect him.

London
france
cardiff
wembley
Cant do them all so will only go to wembley when we get there ,wont be long now

I proper enjoy watching him. Arrogant, clever, PitA, little SoaB. If only he was RW+B, (and Welsh!!!!)

Bring back GB for me.

But we have got to 3 of them in recent years.

I have not missed a challenge cup final in over 40 years the new Wembley is an excellent structure ,but does lack the buzz that the old Wembley gave you. You also miss the uncomfortable seats total lack of space and the flood of urine coming down the stairs.As for the game I hope Leeds at least make a game of it for a while before getting stuffed.But I will be there and will enjoy the day,come on Wigan.

I'm going!

But think we will get a right lesson from Wigan... however, you never know on the day!

On Tomkins, he plays the game to the edge of the rules and often beyond (as do Wigan at the moment) and that is why he is a target for all opposition fans. However, he does this because he wants to win at all costs and that is something you can never criticise too heavily.

I 'hate' the little git and will continue to 'hate' him other than when he has an England jersey on his back (in a 'real' game... I don't think he will get booed in the 4N) or ever pulls on a Leeds jersey.... the reason... he is just a bloody outstanding player of our game! I suspect I will be 'hating' him with a passion on Saturday!

It is OK BTW to 'hate' opposition players... that is part of being a fan and the reason the word 'hate' is in inverted commas because there is a difference to 'hating' and hating, if you get me?

For those who are going to Wembley I was in London yesterday and there notice boards in the underground stations about service disruptions for the bank holidays. Not sure which services are disrupted, check before travelling www.tfl.gov.uk/modalpages/2625.aspx

I think Sky fawn over him because he is simply head and shoulders above anything we have seem from a British player in some time. Although I find it cringe worthy I don't mind it as our game needs "super stars" to promote itself. The more press attention he gets and the way he performs can only be good for the game.

He is a joy to watch, much in the same way Inglis and Thurston are even when they are ripping England to shreds. I guess it comes down to people who love the game regardless of the club, against people who support club first the game second.

I would class myself in the former category and regardless of who a player plays for I love to see the good ones at the top of their game even if they are destroying the team I support.

As a player he is backing up the hype in my opinion, I used to blush when Stevo and Eddie claimed Rads and Wellens were "the best in the word" etc but at the moment he has the world at his feet, and could be a massive part of the promoting the game, especially due to the fact he can string 2 words together in an interview.

In relation to the game I expect a very tough contest. Leeds will be pinning their season on Saturday and have disrupted Wigans rhythm when they have played them more than other teams seem able to. I expect a close contest for 60 mins and then I think Leeds emotion may not be enough and Wigan will pull away to win by 2 clear scores. Last thing our game needs is a one sided contest and an easy victory for either side.

Hi we going in oneils on Easton rd sat morning and a few in sports bar 5 mins from stadium before and after match if anyone fancies going us
