If Wigan adopt the spoiling tactics and interference at the play of the ball i hope he does anything but let if flow. Get em penalised. Also walking forward off the mark into the markers as they play the ball. If we get over the top of them and get them on the back foot then we need to be allowed to take advantage of that,not allow them to slow us down for the sake of not 'letting the game flow'.

Just refereeing to the rules will do me,fair for both sides, my pet peeve this season is the disparity between the tap restart , some refs wait for all players to be onside, some not, and some change within the same game! First time in a long time I've seen touch judges on the field at Saints, usually they can't even run the line properly!

Unfortunately, letting things flow where Wigan are concerned means every tackle is round the head and accompanied with a rake and laying on. We can deal with that as we did in the semi last year but as a rugby fan it won't look good on telly at all.

What a pity. I came on here hoping for some good to and fro about our final and the first thing I read is this one eyed codswallop. Think I'll leave it there though I'm sure most on here are better educated about the sport than you appear to be.

So Radders has Named the team today then ..
"Everybody is fit and we’re pretty strong"

Guest of Honour and presenting the Cup to the winning captain on Saturday is Ellery Hanley.

Discipline is key
You could see from the kick off in last years final that discipline had been drilled into the players.We cleared the ruck quickly and didnt give away too many penalties
More of the same on Saturday please.

Shaul
Fonua
Connor
Carlos
Talanoa

Sneyd

Houghton
Watts

Bowden
Washbrook
Green
Thompson

We can't afford to have Washbrook AND Connor on the bench, Connor is back up goal kicker and has being more effective than Griffin for the majority of the season. It might sound harsh on Griffin given his later season form but we don't have the luxury of leaving a back on the bench potentially for most of the game, not IF Washbrook is there which is almost 100% certain.

If you have Connor on the bench and Griffin in the backs then who misses out?

Griffin will play imo, be gobsmacked if he doesn't, connor on the bench, Thompson 18th man

Presume we'll be using last season's build up as our blueprint.

Nice to have no injury/disciplinary/team selection distractions nor the 'but Hull have never won at Wembley question' this season.

I think the Huddersfield match will already be long forgotten and our 17 will be just fully focussed on Saturday. They also know they'll have our absolute backing throughout the game.

I'm quietly confident and can't wait.

I'd rather have Connor or Griffin on the bench then Thompson, if we have another forward I'd go for Fash.

Team will be the same as the semi.

Absolutely - same team and subs as the Semi-Final :Connor Green Bowden and Washbrook the bench. Griffin has been our most consistent performer over the last 6 weeks. Mahe Fanoa owes his team and the fans a massive performance on Saturday - been under par the last three games he has played!
