Thinking of tomorrows game against Hull, are they seen as a potential banana skin, or are they viewed as a strong side that are genuine contenders? Hull's form has been indifferent throughout the year, but they have proved that they can play, especially over the past few weeks.

I personally think that Hull took a while to bed in, and will have a strong back half of the year. It can't be easy with a new full back, stand off and captain (who got injured before a ball was kicked) Chance of a cup run and a shoe in for the top 8, could challenge at the back end?

I hope so. We are a different side with Holdsworth in the team - he frees Horne up to play a running game and he has been exceptional this year. In the pack, O'Meley is starting to pick his game up, Ellis is nearly back to fitness and people like Pitts, Green and Westerman have been very good. We also have an exciting back line now, Crooks and Lineham could be our right side partnership for the next 10 years. Not getting ahead of ourselves though, there have been a lot of false downs - but i think we are happy that we have blooded so many youngsters this year, who havent looked out of place at all

Definately not a banana skin for me (unlike my pre match worry about Salford!!)

I expect a tough game from a decent side, looking forward to it

I'm expecting a Wire win, but Hull are plenty good enough to turn us over if we are not 100%.

From what I have seen of Hull, they seem to have the balance right. Big, strong pack and quick outside backs. All with a blend of youth and experience.

Crooks and Lineham are diamonds. Big futures.

They ran Wigan very close the other week, from what I heard they should really have come away with the two points. Not many clubs can say that this year!

We have really turned a corner now and with the spine of our team all firing I expect us to come away with the 2pts.

Our right wing is really pleasing at the moment and I fully expect the Crooks / Lineham partnership to get even stronger.

Yeaman has improved no end since returning from injury and with Ellis now coming into his 3rd game the left side will push on even more.

Holdsworths return is very timely and his ball distribution has given us an extra 20% week on week.

Horne is playing the best rugby of his career and has ran some great lines over the past weeks.

Our forwards are all taking the ball up well and defensively excellent.

I reckon we wil take it by 14 and the rest of the league will sit up and take notice.

Yeah, was a good game and I think we should have taken the two. Gut feel you will have too much for us, but looking forward to a good evening out. As long as we show our continued good form, and some more exciting rugby I have nothing to complain about. On song, I think we are almost a match for anyone. (cue a heavy 60 point defeat!)

We will win. Too much quality in key areas and it also looks like our wobbly left edge defence has improved greatly.

My heart says FC will win but My head says a Warrington Win.

Either way, as long as FC battle to the 80th Minute i'll be happy.

It's going to be a close match though. Either team by 8

I am made up, managed to get a lift over to the game. Exam in the afternoon then a nice trip over the Pennines at rush hour to look forwards to.

I left my season ticket in Warrington thinking I wouldn't be needing it, would I be able to get someone to drop it off at reception for me and pick it up from there I wonder?

Haha law for my sins! I may still end up missing it yet. Next exam after tomorrow is Tuesday, so a bit of rest and recuperation won't do any harm. Cheers Unc.
