should be a cracker , 2 very passionate sets of fans will provide the atmosphere , the spotty ones for me , just

[The Masked Poster]

Couldn't say who'll win. Depends who handles the occasion better. 

I'll go with Leigh though purely due to them looking like a united team that will fight for each other. Although I'm sure the same could be said about HKR so wtf do I know? 

[UBranger]

I like both teams, I'll be pleased for one and sad for tother. Like it that it's not going to be Leeds/Saints/Wigan .

[sam4731]

Golden point for whoever ends up winning. Lance Todd to be on the losing team. Leigh to wear leopard print suits for the trophy presentation. Stick a quid on all of that and you'll never work a day in your life again.

[GeordieSaint]

Leigh are the favourites. But for some reason I am going with Hull KR. 7pts gap.

Win or lose, the most important thing is that next week, I should be able to describe my state as "not nervous" for the first time in weeks!

I'll second that

[DavidM]

Looking forward to this . Two teams on the up going against each other , I’ll go HullKRRovers by 4 

[ELBOWSEYE]

Expecting a cracker, can't wait to see what DB wears, Leigh to edge it but it's a flip of a coin.

[johnh1]

Likely to be the best final for years without one of the 'big' clubs in it.

[bobbruce]

Good luck to both teams don’t mind who wins. Let’s hope for a classic. 

[Snowys Backside]

Whoever holds their nerve will win. 
 

Leigh by 8

It's going to be emotional!

[bratman]

Whoever handles the occasion better will probably edge it... it's going to be nervy though I feel 

[Father Ted]

Leigh by 10. 

[Havenlad80]

Can’t honestly pick a winner here which should make it a fantastic game and occasion.

"Good luck to one team, I absolutely do mind who wins, couldn't care less if it's a bloody awful game."

[Zilla Budgie]

I'm just going to enjoy the occasion. Yes I want us Leythers to win (obviously), but in the last 30 years I was pretty sure I would never see Leigh play in a challenge cup final.

[Mapleyther]

Heart says Leigh, heads says … Leigh!

Just about to board a flight from Toronto to be there.

[Thunder Road]
