| CC cup every time, the true champions are the team who finish top after 28 rounds.

100% wrong for many reasons but if you followed the whole SL and play-off concept you'd know that.

| A heck of a lot of people can't seem to get used to the Champions being based on the Grand Final.
For me the CC is clearly a major trophy and second to being Champions. I wouldn't claim it as meaningless, although I suspect that early-round knockouts are not the tragedy they were 15 or 20 years ago - either financially or for the fans.

| I would give up winning on Sat if it means we can win at OT in October. GF is the No1 IMO followed by the CC and then the League leaders shield.

I'd rather take the CC on Saturday and go into the play offs with all to play for...

| Leeds have never done the double in their history ..... that's ever.
The players and coach Challenge Cup winning experience, the new venue, injuries and the amount of strapping holding some players knees together are all concerns.
Underdogs but it's all on the day.

| I dont know which i would rather win.
However i do know that this year with the leeds and warrington both getting to the final, it has renewed everyones enthusiasm, and i know that i (as a wigan fan) and everybody associated with rugby that i know.....cant wait for saturday!!
I think the challenge cup may become that little bit more special again after saturday! Good luck to both!

No they are not. It's like this, I'm sure most sensible posters will agree
GF>CC>WCC>Hubcap

| Quote G1="G1"Well, luckily this year we have finalists that have sold it out.
The Challenge Cup is great, a prestigious trophy, one of only two meaningful ones a club can win each year. I always want us to win it.
However, despite how much the fans may enjoy the day it still is not as significant as winning a championship.'"
I agree the championship has to be more significant because it is the climax of many more games home and away againts all comers. But the actual experience of the finals themselves is quite similar. I hope to report which I prefered in a few weeks time.
