So, after a good nights sleep and several deep breaths can we c put yesterdays farcical events behind us and look forward to this massive game? It really can't come soon enough now for me.

I'm really confident we can for once put on a show in the capital. We should be going into this with all our players in good shape and the old stagers rested up and chomping at the bit.

No more excuses, Now is the time, so please, please deliver!!

I'm still a little bit bitter about yesterday, but its subsiding. I'm focusing on how giddy i got when the tube went past Wembley Park yesterday, and i got a glimpse of the stadium. Saturday really cant come quickly enough for me either. I'm absolutely buzzing about what i think could be an absolute classic.

Don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere but Phil Bentham is the ref.

The prospect of a Wembley win and always my first thought is Graham Murray.

Its Wembley eve and I just want to say the best of luck Leeds!

Winning tomorrow will be unreal after seeing us lose the last 6. I, like others, will look back at the previous trips, all the travelling and all the ££££ spent. A win tomorrow will make up for it.

So, waht does everyone think the score will be tomorrow, then..?

I saw on Facebook the other day about a potential reply at Bramall Lane and lots of angry comments about this by Rhinos fans. I hadn't realised the CC does replays but since learning this I have a nagging feeling that it will end up as such. I can't go to any potential replay either!

So my gut is saying 'draw' (18-18) but optimism is saying Leeds 26-22.

Also, did anyone see the pictures on Look North of the Cas coach being seen off yesterday? There was a picture of some massive, long-haired dog sat on the pavement wearing a Cas top. I thought it was quite funny <insert relevant joke about 'people from Cas' here >.

This is one of the reasons why the missus and I go every year, so if we get to the final and lose we can always say "we were going anyway", it lessens the heartache a little.

Good luck to the boys tomorrow - I'll be the one in the Rhinos shirt.

I'm getting the buzz and pre-final nerves. This is going to be a long and unproductive day at work!

I'm just trying to kill the last hour or so till it's time to get the train down to that there London. Nervous as hell.
