This week's had more people claiming they know what's going on than any I've ever known before, and even if Gentle knows his team I'd be amazed if he's even told the team yet let alone some random bloke off here.

Personally, my team would be

Shaul
Lineham/ Crooks
Crooks/ Horne
Yeaman
Briscoe
Holdsworth
Miller
O'Meley
Houghton
Watts
Ellis
Tickle
Westerman

Heremaia
Lynch
Pitts
Whiting

Harsh on Horney but Shaul's earned his spot for the final, and there's no point having him and Heremaia on the bench together because we'd lose too much size.

I'd have Whiting at 2, Horne on the bench and leave Crookes out.

Squad is Briscoe,crookes,crooks,Ellis,green,heremaia,Horne,holdsworth , houghton ,lynch,miller,o'meley ,Pitts, Shaul,tickle,watts,westerman,whiting,yeaman

You'd have our slowest back in place of our fasted on the wing.?

Ever hear the old saying "forwards get you to Wembley and the backs will win the cup for you"?

We need as much pace as is available. Shaul, Briscoe and Crookes are the fastest we have available. All three should play (in the absence of Lineham)

No reflection on Rich Horne, but I don't see a place for him in the 17.

Horne and one of Pitts or Green to make way.

Horne and Green to miss out, for me, if everyone is fit.

Biggest concern is the centres.

If one of them is injured then we could either move Whiting to centre and Green to the bench, or play Horne at centre with Whiting on the bench. I'm not sure which of these two options I prefer.

Happy with pretty much any combination from that 19, given potential injury scenario at the final hooter on Friday night.
