So with no new injury worries and both Henry and Nash availble for selection this weekend what would your team be? Not sure if Sibbits got a heaing with the RFL this week either for a high tackle during the Cats game, but ignoring that for the time being, i'd go with:

1. Wilshere
2. Henry
3. Littler
4. Turner
5. Goulding
6. Smith
7. Myler
8. Cashmere
9. Alker
10 Stapleton
11. Parker
12. Adamson
13. Swain

14. Paul
15. Leuluai
16. Sibbit
17. Jewitt

Think this is a very winnable game, Hull have not been in great form of late, but they will no doubt want some sort of revenge for the cup defeat. I've had some confidence restored in recent weeks with some very encouraging performances, including parts of the Catalan game, where we defended our hearts out and played with lots of effort for large parts. If the same effort and commitment is shown this week and with the backing of the shed there is no reason why we can get the two points.

Sibbit out 1 match ban, but he should get off on appeal, Burgess at Leeds was handed the same sentence for the same offence but was overturned on appeal with £300 fine staying and £100 extra for the bribe to get rid of ban.

Thornley or Nash to come onto the bench then?

i would go for :-

1.wilshere
2.ratchford
3.turner
4.goulding
5.henry
6.smith
7.myler
8.cashmere
9.alker
10.stapleton
11.adamson
12.parker
13.swain

14.paul
15.sibbit
16.leuluai
17.jewitt

if sibbit to miss out i'd bring littler in but as a second row option

Sibbit banned at present

ratchford dropped then. henry and nash to play in the reserves to regain match fitness ratchford has done nothing wrong if he keeps getting dropped when he peforms the club may aswell let him go.

Ratchford not dropped just fans selections

off the topic abit but with utd at home will you be expecting a lower then normaly crowd ?

probably yeah, plus with it being shown on sky as well!

Most of our worst crowds in SL have been Saturday evening kick offs.

looking at the hull board i'm guessing you not expecting as big a traveling support as usual yourselves?
I hope it's not too quiet.
With it being a sky game and united and home plus dishartned hull fans at the mo i hope it's not too quiet!

4000 at the most ruined my day, planned to be out at 12 to OT for 3.00 and then tram to the Willows for 6.00,
Then Setanta step in, so drinking from 12.00 and hopefully see the kickoff

Aye we are ed off with the board and Agar isnt the man for the job so i and alot of others wont be travelling ( i wouldnt have been going anyways as at Hull City v Liverpool )

I reckon around 300/400 Hull fans will travel which is shocking tbh but its expected the way our club is going atm

Well i see this game a very important fixture it is vital we continue to move forward after our defeat in france last week.
Togetherness and commitment to the cause is vital, it sounds like the hull players and fans are stuggling for confidence at the moment us on the other hand have certainly moved onward and upward despite last week defeat i personaly feel a lot better about Salford and the way we are playing and im sure the players themselves are more confident now.

Just stick to what we did against Wire/leeds and Hull, complete the sets, put them underpressure, stay in the arm wrestle for as long as we can and when a chance/penalty comes or Hull start to drop off take advantage.

We need to watch around our fringes, the defence in them areas have been world class the games we have won and to get a simular result saturday it needs to be the same.

Im sure considering its our 1st Home game since leeds a few more may turn up or a least watch us on tele to see what all the fuss is about,

[sizePerform on saturday, give 100% be committed, play for you yourself and your pride as an individual like you have in the games we won thats all us fans can ask for and we'll all go home happy regardless of the result.[/size

Im sure the shed will be in good voice as well, Hull faithfull are umongst the most noiseys in the leauge (even though in my opinion they have let themselves down badly over the last few seasons in both number and voice) so im sure it will be a good atmosphere
