Wigan will need to be on their game to handle the emotional occasion of Saturday's Challenge Cup final against Huddersfield, says boss Matt Peet.
Warriors have seen off Salford, Wakefield and rivals St Helens to reach the final in north London. It is Peet's first season in the job, and he is only one victory away from ending a nine-year wait to win the cup. "We're not going to shy away from it, we want to embrace the pressure," Peet told BBC Radio Manchester. "We want to embrace the occasion, but we've got to be present for 80 minutes on Saturday afternoon."

Come on the Giants!
Although I do think Wigan will win. They have a lot of speed in their team and if the sun is shining on that big pitch then their speed will be too much for Huddersfield. The Giants will be no pushovers though, they beat us in the quarter finals and deservedly so, they played very well. They have a great coach too whereas Peet is a rookie.

Needless to say, I'm rooting for Wigan and I really hope for more than a 4 point difference in the final score. Got a feeling its gonna be a nail biter though.

Such a shame for the rest of the country. They have to make do with football and being bored to death with 0-0 draws in their showpiece events.

If they'd have converted that last try you would have right with your score prediction Alf.
We love you Wigan we do!

I also said McGillvary for first try and although he didn't get the first try he did score a try. Heartbreaking for Huddersfield. Congratulations to Wigan. |

Congratulations to Wigan, Kate.
I'm gonna check the highlights of the game later, but it looks like a good game with how close the scoreline was.

It was definitely more exciting to watch in execution than the Champions League final imo. I really found it fun seeing Wigan score the winning try in the last few minutes of the match, it kinda added to the excitement.
