| Terrific performance by Hull KR to get to Wembley, totally outplayed Warrington after the opening 10. Said their name's on the trophy this year, bit like our 2005 run. As I think JTP said most of us will have red and white friends/family - will be a great day out for them after a long drought, and on this showing a good chance of lifting the trophy. ![CLAP eusa_clap.gif](images/smilies//eusa_clap.gif)

| Only saw the second half, was sloppy because of the weather but still enjoyed it due to how close it was.
Well played to Rovers.
They need to hope their concentration on the final doesn't damage their chance of survival. I would not be at all suprised to see them win the cup but also get relegated.

| So reminiscent of our winning cup run. Thought I'd be hacked off but performance and energy was so admirable and Warrington aren't my favourites either - fully deserved final place. Is it me, or have Warrington gone backwards since Agar joined? ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif)

| It hurts to say, but well done Rovers. Fully deserved. I think they'll need to go a different level to beat Leeds though.

| It's nice to see a team from a lower league make the final and not have the competition dominated by Super League teams.

| never like them but well done to rovers - the better team won. hope they give a good account of themselves in the final
on a slightly different topic is this the end for tony smith at warrington?
or is it the Agar factor - they've never been the same team since he joined

Yeah I can see him gone at the end of the season.
They have massively failed to replace Briers. Any combination of young halves they have tired just doesn't cut it, not for a sustained period of matches.
I reckon if Briers had of been playing today (at certain points they might aswell have given him a shirt he was on the pitch that long) Wire would have won. Whether Sandow is the answer we will find out soon enough!

| Its so easy to say its all down to Agar, but in Tony Smith they have one of the best coaches in the SL era. His record is excellent before anyone starts having a pop at him. I have seen it time and time again that its down to the Agar factor, but I can't believe Smith would leave it all to him.
The plain facts are that since Briers retired they have lacked a leader on the park. Him retiring has had the same effect as Cooke leaving us all those years ago.
Myler has stagnated (thats being kind) since his early career promise. Without Westwood today they would always struggle.

| Credit to Rovers. They are deserving finalists.
Not a good result for us though. Only Leeds now to have the distraction of Wembley, and I think they are good enough to beat us with that.
