It has been a very strange week.... Everyone feels a bit downtrodden by the injuries and the current form.... No one is REALLY expecting a win.. only Duckie is saying we will win.. The only reason he is saying that, is so if we do actually win, he can spend weeks going into every forum he can find telling everyone he was the only person that knew it would happen... like some sort of sage, when really, he is just a broken clock.

When it comes to the actual game... we do have a chance.... We still have some brilliant players.. its going to take a really big performance from them.. especially the forwards.

We can also take some confidence from the fact that saints are massive bottlers in big games against us.... They are the massive favourites for this game.. pressure is on them to finally deliver and win something.

Heart says wire win..... head says saints by 14+

The problem is that the squad only has 1 half back and even you have generously described him as a weak link.

Well just about to head off down the smoke for the weekend! I fear the worst for both the Cheshire representatives tomorrow but you never know! One thing is for sure I'm gonna drink far too much have plenty of laughs and fun and enjoy the whole weekend experience!
I hope you all do too!!
I wish you well. Have a safe trip and good luck

It’s nothing to do with who’s in the squad, it’s to do with that squads’ recent form, which is abysmal.

How many times have we beat you this season????says it all really

We didn't beat them last season,..................until it mattered!

Very amusing. I feel like the Saints fans we have had on during the year have tended to be less generous on their appraisal of our players.

Going on my past cc finals it's a Wire win 1974,2009,2010,2012 didn't make the match or watch on TV we won them all 1989,2016,2018 went to each one lost them all this year can't make it or watch on TV so if history repeats itself a resounding Wire win

This player appraisal quite amazing..! All I've read all season on Red Vee, Twitter etc is how crap our players and joke of a club is... Yet as soon as a major final comes round you're trying to make a case for us ??
Crazy..

Can't remember reading about your players being rubbish - I've read plenty of jibes about your club but then if you fly a plane over another team's ground suggesting they should be concerned about you, you can't complain too much about getting some attention.

Everyone with half a brain knows that a strong Wire side (or Wigan for that mater) is a team that can easily beat you on any given day.

As far as I can tell, you are missing just Austin from the team that was hammering sides earlier this season. Everyone knows Wire are a genuine threat, except Wire fans.

I believe Wolfie Airways fares are out in September . Easy Jet are worried.

It's a one off game. Who tipped Sheffield to beat Wigan all those years ago.

That was hardly two teams first and second in the table

All the best in the final .hoping for a good game very much looking forward to it .hoping for a good game after the season weve had at Headingley. Same good wishes to Saints but no one o. Their board these days

They dont like talking to fans of other clubs, so have got their own insular site. Just go on redvee and see how anyone from an opposition team is treated.

The Royston Vasey of message boards!

Oh I don't know...I've at least 2 topics on me running and one by topic title.
I'm very well thought about on the RV

you must be so proud.

Regardless of all them nice words about our current squad, the fact is we are miles off compared to Saints and playing some of the worst rugby currently (in the last 2 months) than we have played for quite some time. We are averaging 13.3 points scored a game in the last 6 and without our key playmaker.... our chances are very slim, one off game or not.

Well done Warrington, told you it was not the mountain suggested

well done wire from a hull fc supporter.

Never doubt the Duck !!!!!!!!!!!

Well done the duck, thought he was ‘quack-ers’ ..

As per my previous post if I don't go or watch on TV we win cc final great all around performance

So will you be in the Antarctic if we get to the Grand Final
