I must say i was there tonight,free ticket , & it was amazing to hear the Saints fans shouting for offside & forward pass when they did most of it ,not to mention not square at ptb repeatedly. How that little scrote Walsh didn't get a red is beyond me but all the scousers did was boo Childs for giving him a yellow.

I think they may be right, Catalan and Wigan are falling apart, you and Hull will have the distraction of Wembley and then the winner will have the seemingly inevitable Wembley comedown. The door is wide open for Saints to get a home semi and go into the playoffs in the best form.

Most wire fans would take that fixture.

Lavatory Park would be the ideal venue.

Hull FC have had a dream match here in the build up to the challenge cup final.. Game is won at HT ,Catalan are offering absolutely nothing and have been an absolute disgrace...Hull may even have the luxury of taking a few players off with one eye on next week...

Not sure a procession is a great warmup if truth be told. They could still pickup injuries here especially if they start getting half hearted. If we have a good tight and hard game against cas that will be a better confidence builder, Hull haven't had to do anything.

Agree 2 weeks on the run Hull have had a training game not the best prep for a final - a total lack of intensity can cause complacency (hopefully)

Catalans are a shadow of the team from earlier in the season. But as the muppets keep on reminding us, they have be decimated by injury.

I agree that this may not be the best warm up game for them before next week.

Dave taylor might be getting a rest against us in a fortnight!!!

Remind me how intense your match against Wakefield's kids was last week?

I'd be amazed if we have the same this weekend. If its a procession I think it would be us on the receiving end of it, cas have been brilliant recently and their attack is as dangerous as anyone else in the league. Anyway last week is irrelevant for me, I was talking about this week and we should have an intense test on our hands, next week this week will be irrelevant the best team on the day will take the spoils.

Last week ?? I'm talking about this week ,, you know the week before the Challenge cup final..

Sneyd is gonna boss it next week according to Yorkie Stevo... And according to Eddie he's gonna boss it at Old Trafford.. How exciting..

It's going to be a pleasure watching them take us to the cleaners next week!!

Maybe not the best warm up for cc but they gained 2 points at a canter in the league. We must match that against cas to keep the pressure on.

Its a shame for catsthey looked like they could have been a challenger for silverware this season but have been unfortunate in the injuries and timing of them a fully fit cats would have been a very different game and one that would leave the hull team feeling like they have been in a game which is exactly what we wanted!!

so according to you guys we wont be up to pace? shame that as I was hoping we might give you a game,
