Super League Grand Final 2016 : Fri Sep 30, 2016 3:39 pm  

So we've made it, i'm very much looking forward to it! Where are you all sat? I'm just above the tunnel. Let's hope there's more of us there like in 2012 against Leeds rather than the [what i considered] poor-ish turnout in 2013.

I think it will be the same team but there is a possibility that Dwyer comes back in if Smith feels like the rest has done him good.

Where are the drinking holes going to be before and after for everyone?

I think there will be a larger following for us this year. When we lost in 2013 it was at the end of a streak where we made a few finals and i think it may have impacted on peoples pockets. I know we have already had 1 final this year, but i feel we will take a few.

As for seating, I and 5 others are on the top level of the West stand right behind the sticks. My theory is we have lost when i was in the lower tier and when I was in the South Stand.

We usually end up having a few in Wetherspoons in Deansgate

Can we also play the team from up the M6 please, we owe them one.

So we play Wigan's reserves next week.....should be a good game of reserves v reserves.

We'll win, and we'll win well

Pre match beers are best in the city centre.. The bars around the stadium are expensive and are seriously rammed. Some even charge entry fee at the door .

Good luck and enjoy the day. Warrington have been the most consistent side in SL this season and would be deserved winners.

Nowt in it for me....team with the strongest bench before and throughout the game(injuries) wins!
No chance TS will make the same mistake of sitting 4 forwards on the bench again...I hope!!

2013 was inexcusably poor, but the RLWC certainly didn't help, with many saving up for that.

The last two Grand Finals have both been fantastic 'events' in front of full houses. More of the same next week I hope!

Block WU202 for mine, train over from Sankey early doors.

It should be a cracking game. It's a testament to both clubs work at academy level that they've made the final this year with so many first choice players in the stands.

Have a good one.

Exactly why I said Hull FC were in a false position. They've been fortunate on player fitness.
