Well here it is, the season's pinnacle a night under the lights at Old Trafford and unfortunately our team are already on the sands at Towyn. The final is probably the line up that the competition deserves 1 v 2 and if the Magic weekend fixture is anything to go by we should be in for a belter.

It's triple points on offer this week, and time for you to 'clouez vos couleurs au mat' Will there be a new name on the trophy, will McNamara get the credit he deserves as a coach, or will it be case of 'same old same old' that sees St Helens walk off into the sunset over Billinge Hill with the prize?

Thanks UR for running the comp once again, and I'll leave you with my final tenuous link for 2020, being that Ringo Starr passed his driving test on this day in 1964. Let's hope that Wire steer a course to Old Trafford in the years to come, and we get rid of our L plates where the GF is concerned.
