Hall anxious to avoid hat-trick

Ryan Hall hopes it will be third time lucky after suffering heartache with club and country in the last 12 months in the capital.

The Leeds and England winger lost last season’s Challenge Cup Final to Wigan at Wembley and a Four Nations match against Australia in the autumn.

Hall has the chance to avenge those defeats in tomorrow’s final and said: “They were disappointing but it means you want to try even harder to get back there and win the next time.

“Playing at Wembley is incredible and you have to enjoy the experience. We have a massive challenge against a very tough Warrington side.

“We beat them at home earlier this season but they gave us a really tough night at their place.”
