Griffin must have got the all clear from his consultant to play, so I imagine he will play second row, the club maybe will keep monitoring him and if they feel he isn't right then I imagine Rodwell will play in his position and Bain will come into the match day team

Sheffield Eagles name their squad for Wembley




Don't know much about them to be honest but I'm guessing that will probably be the best players available, one or two of our old Boys in there

That's a strong squad.
Their halfbacks are very good and will cause us some problems.

They have a few older players who will see this as a last hoorah and give it their all.
If we let them play they'll punish us.

Forward dominance is going to be key for us.

5 old boys. All will want to make it a day for them to remember.

Imagine Hansen will play FB, with 2-13 otherwise. They’re going to need a miracle.

It's also going to be a last hurrah for some of our older heads too

There isn't a single player in that Sheffield squad that would get in our side. Skybet have got us on -20, I think we'll clear that.

1-12 off the level. The bookies aren't often wrong. Let's hope they aren't this time

For a regular league fixture, I would agree but, this is a cup final.
If we get early points, we should go on for a comfortable win but, Sheffield will have a real dig early doors.
We have to expect a tough, tough contest, fans and team alike.

They've had a "miracle" at Wembley before don't forget.....

Going on the 21 man squad my team would be
Max
Jerry
Thornley
Pratt
Walmsley
Gale
Lino
Bowden
Hood
Renouf
Ashurst
Griffin
Pitts

Rodwell
Caleb
Kaye
Doyle

Supprised to see that it's not been brought up of the last time we won a cup final and who the opposition was on that day at ellend road

Be very surprised if Bain doesn’t play, for me it’s olpherts v walmsley , kaye v Doyle , all good choices to have and wouldn’t be disappointed if team was as you suggest.

Think the Yorkshire cup final mentioned on other thread , 1992 I think at elland road ,
Spencer, jones, mason , benson, Wilson , wright bagnal, Webster bell glancy price fritz slater,

I’ll stick with what I said a week ago

I'd go Doyle over Kay.

For me, Kay covers a number of positions and has the added benefit of being pretty effective from dummy half and with Mcgilvery, Griffin & Thornley back inn recovering from lay offs (and Gale) It makes more sense having him in the side rather than Doyle.
