Ok we didn't make it to Wembley this time (deliberate understatement)
But, who do we want to win tomorrow ?
Hull go into the game as the form team but, Wigan will be determined to get "their" trophy back and
it should be a cracking final.
Personally I'd prefer Hull to win, although some success for Hull may be the start of something, for a club which
has for many, many years been a pretender to the big time and success in the CC could start their ball rolling.

I just want it to be competitive.

Hull the underdogs will get many people's vote but will Wigan do it for Shaun Wane who recently lost his father?

Hoping for a cracker - Warriors to edge it.

If it is half as good as the last time they met at Wembley in 1985. It will be a very good game. Personally I don't care who wins as long as it is competitive.

I'm going for Hull. Think they will have enough fight to win the cup.

Wigan for me. A great example of a good team on and off the field. Bringing kids through the system. Have more respect for teams like this than the Warrington's and Huddersfield''s that go out and buy a team and pray in other teams. Even hull to a smaller degree do this to their neighbours an other teams. Salford are probably about to earn the same tag as well.

I have to agree about Wigan doing an excellent job of bringing their youngsters through and Wakey could certainly learn a thing or two from them in this respect.
However, if my team isn't playing, I always like to go for the lesser fancied team, also, I haven't forgiven Wigan for their antics a few seasons ago, when they drove a double decker through the salary cap and then "persuaded" the RFL, that the points deduction should be halved.

Living in Beverley, Hull without a doubt. Big soft spot due to David Topliss naturally. I've also had the pleasure of talking to Kevin Harkin in the Cats Bar a few times, who is a great guy and loves both clubs...but follows us a lot, and stands on the terraces as I'm sure some of you know...So come on you 'Ull!!

Want Hull to win and think they will........then at least we got knocked out by the eventual winners!

Also, as someone who likes a bet I think the market is a bit out.....

Wigan at 1/3 and Hull at 5/2 in the 80 minute betting is bonkers in my eyes.....Wigan have had far much the easier draw and their record this season against the bigger teams doesn't bode well.....

Hull on the other hand have shown they can raise it with beating Warrington in the Semi-Final....they look a strong bet for me at 5/2 in what I see as a real 50/50 game....

Also had a few quid on Danny Houghton for M.O.M at 14's......if i'm hoping for a Hull win Holdsworth would be the obvious choice but Houghton is class and could be a key player if Hull are to win....

Strange one this, on League form you'd have to go for Wigan but this is a one off.

On the wide pitch of Wembley it's likely to be the team who exploits the open spaces better that will win. While Wigan are renowned for getting the ball wide their centres, Gelling and Thorniey, aren't the best. On the other hand Crooks has been on fire, he'll miss Lynham though, and Yeaman/Briscoe are both seasoned players.

Halfs are pretty much like for like in terms of ability while the packs both have their merits and will fight out an even battle IMO.
Houghton will be vital for Hull and I think the speed of the game will suit him better than McIlorum and that might be the single biggest deciding factor in the game.

Shaul has the ability to be a star in this match but if Tomkins is 100% then he's obviously the most likely to turn in a match winning performance.

I'm going for Hull to end their Wembley hoodoo though my heart wants Wigan
