Briers must be rubbing his hands waiting for Wellens to get the boot. Guarantee it will be the week they play us.

100% this. 


I've lost count of the  amount of games i've turned off this season.  The game really is in a poor state on and off the field. 

Same. I was flicking between the 3 games last night and all 3 were dull as ditchwater.  The sky production really doesn't help and the video ref debacle just compounds the whole

Leeds looking comfortable at half time. It's on BBC iPlayer too so can have our game on as well

'Every major final defeat since 1985' There aren't too many of them are there for forty years!! Each one of them ending in different forms of heartache!!
Maybe there will be another one to add to that list come Saturday evening, although I'm not holding my breath on this one.


If they blow this one, it'll be more heart breaking than the previous three combined, given what's happened so far this year.
We live in hope for an unexpected upset on Saturday!!!

If the forty year drought is to continue on after tomorrow afternoon reckon either of two things must happen.


One: rovers have a sudden unexpected attack of Wembley nerves and freeze at the moment of discovery (unlikely I suspect) or Two: Wire pull out a performance the like of which they haven't even remotely suggested is in their locker this year (even more unlikely I doubly suspect!!).


My feeling is rovers will win and probably win comfortably (possibly by around 16-18 points), wouldn't be too surprised if it's over as a meaningful contest by the hour mark.
We live in hope for a Cup final upset to transpire tomorrow, but it's difficult not to conclude that rovers will have too much power and pace for Wire to handle out there. 1985 seems such a long time ago, virtually a different world to the one we live in today.

Rovers will win comfortably. The only threat I really see Wire offering them is through Dufty, and if the weather is as expected then his threat drops significantly. Not confident Williams will be up to offering much. Wire don't have the forwards to compete against Rovers pack in tough conditions. 
The way Rovers put men into a tackle, and hit hard, Warrington will be dropping the ball in their own 20 over and over again.

I'm hoping the A63 bunting will be out by 17.00 to welcome them home
