Excited and Nervous yet? : Tue Oct 09, 2018 9:16 pm  

Got my ticket today nerves are starting anyone else?

No. i think we will lose this one so im not allowing myself to get excited. Sadly i think Warrington are ready for a big performance in a Grand Final and i have just not seen enough from us recently with ball in hand to suggest we will turn them over again. Everybody seems to be under estimating them and over estimating us after the win against Cas when in reality, whilst our defence was very good, Cas were woeful.

Can’t say I’m nervous yet. Unfortunately I can’t even watch the game live because of work so i’ll Be turning my phone off and watching it when I get in.

As for the game itself I think it can easily go either way and wouldn’t be prepared to put money on either team. I don’t think the attack of either team really clicked in the semis, both defences were very good.

Let’s not forget this is the team that battered us in the Challenge Cup and kept us scoreless.

We owe them one. Let’s hope we use that in the GF. We need a good start against them (for a change).

That doesn't mean they'll win.

Anyone who's not excited about this one, should be.

Both teams are well balanced and will be highly motivated. Also, both now have experience of the big match atmosphere. It literally could go either way. It could be close, or it could be a run-away. There is no real favourite, and no one can second-guess the outcome beforehand.

It has all the makings of a cracker.

Agree with Cruncher...I think we (Wires) go in a slight under-dog (given league positions etc) but both teams are well drilled, have a good defence and I think evenly matched all over the pitch. Should be close, might not be very expansive...but exciting...and the best team on the day will take it. Should be a cracking atmosphere...enjoy!

Could go either way but I do have a feeling the old ‘its always your year’ chant will be in the bin after Saturday. I hope I’m wrong and will enjoy the day regardless and give the leaving coaches and players the send offs they deserve.

What

We beat the best defence and attack in the league (by a mile) 30-10 about 5 weeks ago...

And then beat Warrington 26-6 only two weeks later.
