My £50 wants Wigan to win but I'm not bothered, hang on if its Leeds they'll start chanting Yarksheer Yarksheer..........so I now vote Wigan.

Re: CC Final : Thu Aug 25, 2011 1:59 pm  

Looking at Leeds' squad and knowing their ability to stand up and be counted when it matters, I don't think it's quite the foregone conclusion people presume. The 2 matches so far this season (22-22 and 26-24) show that Leeds can live with Wigan. I just worry that Wigan were nowhere near their best at Headingley and didn't paly particularly well at the JJB either. Still, I think that if Leeds forwards can perform and Sinfield can produce a kicking game to trouble Tomkins, we may get a close encounter.

Oh, and I obviously want the lesser of two evils to win, so Leeds.

Re: CC Final : Thu Aug 25, 2011 2:03 pm  

Trouble Tomkins. Leeds first aim should be removing him from the field. They'll have to match Wigan's grunt, aggression, cheating and thuggery and more.

Leeds have the players to take Wigan apart if they can get through the aggression and match them in that regard. Wigan are overdue a good hammering, they are not as good as they seem.

Still can't see past Wigan though. Maguire has them primed and they are superbly drilled.

Agreed. He's hoping for another 1998.

It would be the same the other way around.

I won't hide the fact that I want Leeds to win. Can't stand the smug Wiganers, alot of them have assumed it's already done and dusted.

I suppose, I've been there cheering for Leeds in the 07,08,09 GFs TBH. But now I hate the Leeds team and fans and same with Warrington.

Not with Saints though I like a few players especially Roby, Makinson, Magenis and Lomax as he has the right attitude and is a gifted player, future GB 7 in the next 3 years. Unlike Wellens and Graham doesn't go moaning and shouting at the ref like a bloody big shiela but can't knock their abilities, although Wellens is past it at 1 and should be moved to 13 IMO.
