Which is exactly what I said.
Anywho ....forecast ... Dry cool conditions on Sunday- hopefully the pitch has recovered a little- perfect for rugby.

Happy we've got a bit of rivalry with Hudds, always good for the game. Not going to go into the repetitive boring arguments abouts Hudds crowd numbers, Bradford going into admin etc etc. Quite frankly it's boring. Much rather talk about what i think will be a fantastic game, bit tasty in front of a decent crowd,

Think our biggest chance of victory is trying to control your big pack and also moving Kearney to stand off. If Addy's at half back, might as well give you lot the two points already.

Although Hudds pack is far bigger than ours, think our lot will get stuck in, think theres some added spice with the Kopczak factor, can see this been a real cracker....or Your lot steam rolling ours.

Hear hear!

Hear hear x 2 ,could be a great game on Sunday, hoping for a good game of RL a little bit of biff and may the best team win.

Enjoy the game

kopzcak will be playing sunday

maybe mullally will drop out or maybe anderson will rest another one of the props patrick or fielden

Fielden ought to play against his old club too! if it were up to me I'd have eorl, fielden and kopczak on the team sheet already. I'd like to see mullally given a go as Patrick hasn't shone for me since the first half of last season-he looked very strong at wakey- at was really miffed when he had to come off as a BB substitution- BUT it's going to be a physical game and mullally may not have the required fitness.

bookies going Giants -12 for this one...

Hope people don't get sucked in to doing us on the handicap, as Wakey proved a win is a win and having to win by over 2 converted tries is rarely a gimme especially in a game like this.

1. Scott Grix

2. Luke George

3. Leroy Cudjoe

4. Joe Wardle

5. Jermaine McGillvary

6. Danny Brough

7. Luke Robinson

8. Eorl Crabtree

9. Shaun Lunt

10. Craig Kopczak

11. Brett Ferres

13. David Faiumu

15. Larne Patrick

16. Jason Chan

17. Ukuma Ta'ai

18. Aaron Murphy

19. Jamie Cording

20. Jacob Fairbank

22. Anthony Mullally


No Fielden

Pleased Jerry made it back in the 19 was concerned when he went off at Wakey, that is one big unit, even without Fielden

Interesting, seems like squad rotation to me, Kopczak, Eorl, Mullally and Larne as props then. Assuming Jerry is fit Luke George to miss, but does Ta'ai come in and for whom? Cording or Fairbank?

Must confess I think Cording has been getting better and better so does not deserve to miss out, also offers cover in the backs, though not sure that is a huge thing in his favour as moving Leroy to wing last week significantly weakened us defensively imo and allowed Lauatiti into the game.

no fielden, no big surprise always knew we would be looking after him this season, and mullally did ok last week.

ta'ai i think will play in place of cording or fairbank..

good win by the under 19s last night too v bradford...

that zac mccomb got another try..thats 4 in 2 games! is he a centre or wing?

I also think cording is getting better- he looked pretty fired up against wakey too which was a surprise as he hasn't shown that side before. Fairbank has done nothing wrong but hasn't really shone going forward but as usual his defence has been very solid. Ta'ai looked like he had some pretty good ball handling skills- would be nice to see him at 13 but probably won't have the match fitness to do that just yet.

Isn't he a Cas lad? Perhaps he just doesn't like them much?
