You know the drill now. First named team with the HGA

Hastings Hurricanes v Staines Steins
Surprisingly in Preliminary Final we see the 2 teams who we thought would play the grand final facing off against each other in Steins v Hurricanes, 
Hard to call this one but if pressed would favour the Hurricanes if the can maintain the form shown over the last 6 weeks.  Steins twin rucks were strong last week and would need them to continue if they are to upset the Hurricanes.

Leeds Leeches v Grope Lane Giants
Giants with a massive score over 2600 last week if they can maintain this form could be the first team since Steins in 2018 to make final from 5th. Leeches have been very consistent and even maintained position when coach went walk about.  Coach will have them firing in an attempt to get to their first Grand final since 2017,   Giants will have to overcome a parochial Leeches home crowd and if the can silence them early should win.
