Matty English suspended. Vete suspended for KR.

Gutted for matty- absolutely gutted.
If Seb is not available then likely Bruno will take up that bench spot.

If the game develops into a hard grind forwards battle, Hull KR will miss Vete far more than Huddersfield will miss English.

I’m not so sure they will. The KR fans seem to think he has been a bit of a poor quota signing

Hard one to predict this Rovers are more adventurous and if get going will be hard to contain, we are more functional with occasional flair thrown in - need to get our early season form back for this.

We should have our first choice spine back for this though.
Having Tui, fages, Russell, and Levi as our spine all together will make a big difference I think.
Some solid work horse players such as Yates, hill and Jones with the likes of McQueen and leutele who can do the hard work defensively but give some flair also going forward.
KR potentially have their two best players out (if the Coote stuff isn’t just kidology) and a host of others such as dagger, vete not available either.
IF our players can play 80% of their best game we can be in the final- the rest of rugby league will hate it.

Why on earth would you say that. Do you have a complex??

sorry, I should have said the rest of rugby league except the West side of Hull will hate it.


Its not me that has a complex, its the rest of the game that has the tiresome repetitive dig at our crowd numbers - so if I have a complex its one that's been forced upon me by the words and actions of others, even though we are above wakey and salford in crowd numbers - yet no one seemed to make the same comments we are already hearing when salford got to two finals.
the ones that do come are just as frustrated at the lack of numbers, and we try to do our bit, but barring dragging people off the streets what can you do?
huddersfield sports teams could well be in a playoff final and a CC final in the next few weeks!

hull kr fans are worried they are claiming we are going to be missing
English and Pryce to suspension and possibly Russell, O'Brien, Greenwood, Mcgilvary, Lolohea, cudjoe and Golding

It looks as if, like myself, you are registered on the HKR unofficial fans forum. The forum is referred to by Hull FC fans as the 'secret' forum which is quite hilarious really because there are many of their own supporters who have accounts on there, some active, others dormant. As the forum is for HKR fans to post/comment there are a few Hull fans mischief making or devilment who actually post as ' Rovers fans'. The particular post (not posts) is one in that category. HKR fans are well aware your suspensions apart you are very likely to field a full strength team and be favourites to reach the CC final. HKR have a lot of injuries which is a shame because i believe that both teams at full strength would have competed in a close and entertaining game.

I am still expecting a very close game. Tony Smith is no Mug and is more than capable of getting KR to a final whoever plays. A few missing just gives a few others the chance to shine. I am by no means expecting a win here, especially in light of how we have played recently. I do hope though that having what should be our best / most settled spine, and not having to play a short turn round for the first time in three weeks will help us play our best rugby.
I never understand this insular forum stuff like the cas furum and red V, its just an echo chamber and not healthy in my view.
