As Leicester showed this season, it's not about superstars, more about collective ability.

Every place is worth another £25K with 8th getting nothing 7th getting £25k, 6th getting £50k and so on.

.............but that is at the end of round 30 not 23. Worth fighting for.

So the officials for the semi are a man who's never had a big fixture, Hewer, and on the video button a man from Warrington.

Sounds about right for us really

No problem with Gareth Hewer, think he is one of the better refs. He did the last round for us against shudds.

Childs,Cobb and Hicks are the ones I dislike.

It's easy to bottle it though in a big game, and when against famous players .... (getting in the excuses)

I don't think injuries are as bad as people think - I have a sort of spy in the camp.

Don't know about the Sio injury but I'm told Simon is fine and Kirmond and Anderson have been ready for weeks.

The pack available could be Fifita, Moore, Scruton, Anderson, Arona, Simon, Kirmond, Molloy, Tupou and hopefully Sio. I don't think that is to bad a line up so let's not call it a day just yet. Call Anderson names if you wish but he's a big unit with GF experience.

All the lads need to do is give it a good dig and enjoy it, the pressure is on Warrington.

Sure Warrington are heavy favourites but as Monty said, you can lose every battle so long as you win the last one. We are building a team and a club here and we will come back bigger and stronger next year, defeat (so long as it's brave) is not the end it's just the beginning.

Depending how bad the sternum injury to Sio is and if he is desperate to play he could have a jab.

I've had a feeling a few might have been ok....Simon looked to be walking fine around the field to me on Sunday...different from running and playing a game I know, but didn't seem to be showing any negative signs...

Said it on a thread the other day too...Anderson could be a major player for us in this...along with another who's been copping a bit of stick Anthony Tupou...with their previous big game experience I think we will see their value on Saturday...

Warrington Guardian reported today that Wire have shifted over 5,000 tickets. What numbers are you looking at bringing over to the right side of the Pennines? 12,00 capacity stadium so 10,500+ attendance would be pleasing to see from a neutral point of view on the tellybox

If every player we have plays to their potential we have a punchers chance - the injury list has not helped but that pack should be able to compete whilst Moore, Miller and Finn are a vey useful combo whilst the backs are currently competent with a few match winners in Hall and BJB which is a massive improvement on last year.

For us to get to Wembley with our current squad regardless of injuries is a huge ask - nobody will make it easy for us. It's all down to the players and how much they want it and if they do there is just about enough in what we have left to have a really good go.

I think Kirmond plays on the right and Ashurst normally on the left. Tupou I'm not quite sure but unless it's a problem to him, I'd have him running in the whole Ashurst normally hits.
It's clearly a go to attacking option so whoever covers needs to be on their running game.

I'm feeling cautiously optimistic but I'll feel better if BJB is out there and Simon and Anderson are fit and ready to spill blood.

Already have my Wembley tickets and have a bet on Wakefield to win.

I go to the final every year but I'm hanging back purchasing our specific seating position until I know if we're there or not.
