00:00Yeah, it should be said that OKR have got a little bit of experience in terms of grand finals as well.

00:05Obviously, Ryan Hall has won six, I think, with Leeds Rhinos.

00:08Tyrone May was there last year with Catalan, so he knows what not to do, I suppose, against Wigan.

00:14We've had the team news come through yesterday. Liam Farrell is in the squad. What do you know there?

00:21Yeah, just that it's slight fitness, isn't it?

00:24So, we're giving him every chance to see if he's going to make fitness.

00:27He's been battling a virus, Matt Peat said. He obviously missed the semi-final.

00:31Hopefully, we get to see him play. Matt Peat said that he's ready to play Sam Walters as he needs to be.

00:37Obviously, he played the match in the semi-final, took his chance.

00:59They've obviously got the likes of Oliver Godot. It's not in the squad, is it?
