whatever the score is, we'll have a cracking day as supporters of true clubs with great history.

Wigan 42

Gateshullthunder 6

Not bothered about who scores first or the attendance

It won't be anything near that.

Given Wigan's slump in form and Hull's upturn in form it's a close one to call, maybe only one try being the difference.

I CAN see there being a 10+ in the scores because the way we've been playing we won't get near but equally if we click because everyone's 'back' then I think we'd stick that on them
I'm not sure which way it will go. I think we have been doing some good things recently but then dropping the ball or picking wrong pass so if we can sort that and tighten the defence well be alright
Maybe they've been like that because they've been getting distracted by the final it's wether that long build up in your head is a hindrance

Got a feeling for a 20 all draw

Hull 24 - 20 Wigan

LT - Holdsworth

Expecting A Cracker Of A Match

No more then 6 points either way IMO.

I'm expecting a classic.

Close game , hull win . We're good defensively , and know how to win the big games when it matters . As long as our forwards match yours , I can't see us losing it . I'll go hull 22-20 , with a late Wigan fight back . Mom either houghton or briscoe who I can see getting 2/3 try's .

Sneaky suspicion we will nick it by 1pt - have not kicked a drop goal all season (although flopped a few). This is the game we finally get one when we need it.

Think it will be very close.

Hull F.C. 22 Wigan 23

(Pat Richards field goal wins it for Wigan).

Can't see past a Wigan win,think you put a score on them.

Wigan 42

Hull 16

Lance Todd Sam Tomkins

A close match for 60 minutes but then it will be a Wigan cake walk. Wigan by at least 20 points

If it's a messy weather affected game with lots of errors Wigan 12-Hull FC 16. If the weather is fine and an expansive game Wigan 28-Hull FC 12.

You need to pick yourselves up from the canvas and strike a knockout blow. Jammy sods that you are i can see you doing it.

Wigan have been very poor recently, I wonder if they can turn it round for the final.

For me there are no underdogs in this game.

If Hull F.C. replicate their performance against Warrington then it will take something very special from a Wigan side that have been below par to beat them.

Not confident at all.

Me either to be honest, looking back I remember being far more confident before the '10 Grand Final and the '11 Cup Final. The comparative lack of excitement from our camp is a bit disconcerting too, look at the Hull board if you don't know what I mean.

A Hull FC win it is then





I'll stick with my original prediction
WIGAN 19 - FC 24

That's because Madge was at the helm and we played a different style of rugby i.e. low error rate and good field position. We drained the life out of Saints and contained Leeds (even though we didn't play well). with Waney's style, it all depends on the ball sticking!

Wire were shocking, you can't turn over so much ball and win a game (which incidentally they nearly did).

..... as well as the players being up for it from the first minute. We looked very lethargic early doors in both semis last year. A stark contrast with the teams of the Maguire era who would get three tries on the board in the first 20 minutes in big games

For the very first time ever, and I have been to many cup finals since watching my first in 1958. It is the first time I am not confident of a win.

I suspect the game will be close, and I hope we do win. But my oh my, we have played some rubbish of late.

I've just cleaned all three bathrooms, the kitchen, playroom, dining room, conservatory, scrubbed all the floors, moved all my kayaking gear out to the shed, put a couple of loads through the washing machine, pegged it all out, hoovered upstairs and I'm about to go out on my bike.
Is this what they call "nervous energy"?

Hull haven't suddenly become a good side there average at best but I hope your team us up for it more than the fans are there seems to be a lot of soon and gloom on here good luck for tomorrow

Doom not soon
