Picks itself apart from maybe Hock for Farrell but I would prefer Faz.

The team does pick itself appart from Hock and Faz.

At the end of the day, a back row of Hoff, H and Faz is class but they are all workers. None of them will give us anything EXTRA.

I would play Hock for his x-factor and I have seen nothing that makes me think he will let us down in defence or with silly mistakes at this point.

Yes Faz will put in 40 tackles but I can't see him punching holes in the Leeds line. Hock will punch holes and make 20-30 tackles. What a weapon to bring off the bench if we need something extra.

However, I will not complain if he plays Faz (unless we lose

) you could argue that you need hard workers in a final to get the result.

At the end of the day, it is a great luxary for Madge to have. If Hock is going to continue last nights form though, Hock for me.

Start with a 13 that will all be here next year, same as we did in the league final.

yeah let's put best second rower on bench!!!!!

I agree Hoffman should start, but just because someone is a good player doesn't mean they should start the game.

Roby used to come off the bench, great player.

On a side note Leeds are currently losing 12 nil to Quins.

Oh and I'd be inclined to go with Hock over Farrel. If only because Gareth can cover at prop if Prescott breaks down at any point during the final.

Hock played himself into the 17 for me last night. Farrell also had a decent game too, so it's a tough call for Madge. I think the other 16 are sorted it's between Hock and Farrell for the last bench spec.

Farrell is more consistent and probably still more match fit, but Hock is more explosive. Hock could win or lose you the game.

Think Madge will go for Farrell, but it will be a shame for whoever misses out.

If there is any doubt about Prescott or any other prop, I'd have O'Carroll on the bench just from last night's performance alone!

probably mind games but leeds seem to be struggling - kallum watkins carried off injured, carl ablett wearing a protective boot after the match and mcdermott unsure on bailey and jjbs fitness.

I'd rest Sam and Pat for the big league game week after.

Whilst Faz is certainly not letting himself down, I would go for Hock for this one. Perhaps its just that he needs to prove somen=thing to himself and the team.If he is 18th man, watch him tame the Wilfs the week after.

The only promlem i have with Hock , is if he is wound up he could have a brain explosion (nearly had one on Friday) and we end up playing with 12 .

We don't want to give Mr Bentham any chances .

Didn't look up to the pace in the Wire game. On a big pitch like Wembley he could really be exposed.

Drop Harrison Hansen, What does he really offer?
We've won games without him this year?

Pretty much spot. I think maybe Hock might get in over farrell because he offers more on attack and can cover Prop. Still tough call with those 2>

I too think the team will pick itself with Farrell on the bench, not Hock. Harrison Hansen would be an outside bet for Lance Todd for me and cannot be dropped.
Crucial for me that our 'pivot' men all play at the top of their form in the first half. Tommy, Finch, Deacon, Sam Tomkins, all on form early on and we could blow Leeds away.

Gaz just has too much x-factor for me, and his discipline has been better since he came back
