I think we'll turn them over.

28-16 to Cas.

Someone has to show a bit of optimism.

We couldn't even win at the KC last season when Hull were struggling. Infact we couldn't even beat them at home a week after we'd beaten Saints. With Hull playing with confidence as they are at the minute, it's going to be a tough ask to go there and pick up a win. Should be a decent game though.

I've got a tiny feeling if anyone could be our downfall in the next couple of weeks it'll be you lot this Friday night.

You showed some real potential on Saturday night, i thought Chase/Netherton played exceptional...

Expect a good following from you lot on Friday too only 40 mins drive. Should be a cracker!!!

I'd give us a sniff.

Are Hull FC the real deal and as good as their early league position suggests? They're definitely in form and super confident right now.

We're a better side this year and although we lost on Saturday, we had enough ball to have come away convincing winners.

Cas by 2

If you look at the teams Hull played then there is reason to be optomistic.

They beat

A Poor Wigan side

Catalans at home who we beat away

A very poor Bradford side

Celtics ....... promoted team syndrome

Huddersfield... who everyone agrees had a bad day at the office against them

Don't get me wrong they are obviously playing well but so are we and I think if we play as we have been doing then this will be Hull's first real test

A close game but hopefully we will just edge it.

Oh and we need to keep up our away winning streak......

Bear in mind, we have an infinately better team than we did last year. I have got to go anyway, I bought the new shirt on Sat and want to get my moneys worth. Trouble is some has sewn man boobs into it! (I am sure they weren't there before I bought the shirt!

People keep saying that we are playing teams that are playing poorly.

5 out of 5 suggests that our meaner defence and higher fitness levels are forcing errors and our much improved defensive pattern is forcing teams more down the middle and into some very strong defence by the forwards.

But then again, we are not a very fancied team so every team we play has an off day!

Much the same is said of us when we have the temerity to knock off a team that's supposed to give us an hiding. We should know our place and have no aspirations, doth our caps to 'superior' teams and take it royally up the ar$e [size(on the pitch that is)[/size

I think Hull will be in, And possibly win the GF - And my money is on at the bookies on this, As for the CC, I think they have recruited well and its no fluke they are flying high, This is the hardest game of the season for me, And without Shenton, Sherwin is a doubt too then it will be really tough - Just hope we perform with a lot of credit

hope you bring a big following and it is likely to be a huge home attendance after our 2 away wins.

SL is great these days with nearly every weeks games being too hard to predict

Intimidating!

You have probably gone to far there tbh

But hate the fact that people are saying Hudds were poor against us for example. Our pack bitched theres, therefore needed to get the ball out wide quicker and produced errors because of the defensive pressure. Just because they had a decent game agaisnt Sts the week before and couldnt match that intensity against us then it was deemed to be a poor performance.

Hope you come across in numbers on Friday, should be a good game. Looking forward to seeing Sione play after the 2/3 disapointing games he had for us a couple of years back as I think he is a very talented player!

Good luck Cas.

Put the Gateshullers down !
