Should be another comfortable win for you guys next week too. Will you rest anyone?

This year's Wigan jersey is vile

I think that was our strongest line up last night and i'm pretty certain BM feels the same way. I wouldn't be to surprised to see Sinfield & Buderus rested next week, or depending on the score playing less minutes than usual. I'd definately keep Ali & McGuire in there, we need those two to be fully fit and in McGuire's case in particular he needs to build his confidence if possible to the levels of last year.

When McGuire is on form and confident he's a danger every time he touches the ball which is why many, me included think his best position is scrum half.

You mean the one where Phil Ford boots the ball towards the Wigan line in an open field chase, but kicks it so hard it landed in Bolton, Mal Reilly turns to Norman Smith and says "what did he do that for" in the most comedic style I've ever seen from Reilly...



Ah great days....

Doug Laughton was the coach @ the time of this particular unexpected hammering.

Remember we [ishould[/i have beaten them in both SL matches this season. We've fared much better against them than against Stains or Wire. Although rightful underdogs, bigger upsets have taken place at Wembley.



If we can generate some good form from now until the final then who knows...

We've got one game to go until the final.



We've had a decent mini run of wins but we've beaten team we normally beat anyway. We've kept the opposition scoreless 6 out of the last 10 halfs. That's the best thing about our ''form''. Because to give wigan a game our defence will have to be top notch.



I think we'll give a decent account of ourselves but i can't see anything other than a wigan win by about 10 points.

Didnt we stuff Cas 2 weeks before the Cup Final last year too?.. Just sayin'

Not forgetting the 2 further meetings between the teams later that sesason.

I think Delaney will be back in the side for Wembley, he was injured last night but B Mac favours Delaney over Ali IMO. It's a tough call to drop anyone after that performance but i think we need Ali in the final, he's a gamebreaker one his day but i do think Delaney will be playing instead of someone, hopefully Kirke but i doubt it.

I agree...Ali should get his place on the bench (esp as he stepped aside last year). Kirke should be the one that makes way...but, as you state, he won't. Those illicit photos continue to pay dividends for him.

I forgot about Delaney!. Yeah he'll be in. Ali has to be in to, but who makes way?, you mention Kirke but then that would leave us with only one prop on the bench. Ali's strength is in running wider from the ruck, he'd be wasted playing as a prop playing down the middle.
