Right picks for TV so far.

So it’s Wigan v The World Champions in the Semi Finals.

Think Wigan will pull off a shock win!

Nice to see Sts getting rather arsed and Welsby spitting his dummy

Burgess certainly seems to be having a positive affect on Warrington as Coach. Seems to be little dummy spitting out there from St’s and as Cpl Jones once said 'They don't like it up em'.

Welsby is a great player but thick as two short planks.

Wigan are good, but I'm not sure there that good

Should be two good semi-finals, reasonably even-matched in both.
Guess Wigan and Wire will start as favourites to meet at Wembley, but at this stage last year virtually everyone had a Wigan-Saints final as nailed on, so nothing is certain in cup football by any stretch.

It will be especially interesting if both Huddersfield and Warrington bring this weekend's form into their clash. Think Huddersfield's win yesterday was the big upset result and performance of the season so far, didn't see that one coming at all.

Obviously, Wigan start as favourites in the other, but rovers are more than capable of upsetting the odds again, but they will probably have to play somewhere near their peak to repeat last year's result. Wigan really do look like they mean business in 2024.

Rovers only won last year due to playing 12 men for over half the game. Wigan will win comfortably if they both keep 13 players on the pitch

Plenty of Burgess doubters on here when he was appointed.
He has done exactly what Peters did at HKR get them supremely fit,defend and attack with a structure and work on a fast play the ball.
Notice also that the play the ball pass is not a short two or three metre pass its long 10/15 meters which opens up play a lot more.
We really are miles behind these these teams
