| This will be a massacre. We seem to be losing players after every game. We lost 4 players after the Catalan game, 4 the week after, and then 4 after Magic.
I can't name a side really for Sunday yet, will await the squad, but the bench will be very young

| Should be a walk in the park for Wigan.
It'll be a very young team again, more senior players missing due to injuries and bans.
Unless Houghton returns we will likely have a hooker partnering an 18yr old in the halves and no hookers at hooker.
Lightning will definitely not strike twice.

I think we'll win because of the situation you find yourself in, but I think our injuries/bans in the halves might stop it from being as bad as you think. We'll have a centre at 6 and a young lad (albeit a very promising one) at 7, and a very inexperienced 9 on the bench too.
Nobody's going to be getting the violins out for us! But I think our options in the halves stopped last week from being a blowout, and I think it might be the same this week.

| What's the general feeling about next season at Hull? Is there any degree of optimism?

Personally, I am quite optimistic about next year, not for a top 4 challenge, but definitely top 8. The kids will be better for their experiences this year, but alongside some real SL experience which they haven't had this year. Off the pitch, we will have a new coach, and the back room appointments have now started with a very highly rated physio (we let our last physio go, and replaced with a kid just out of Uni apparently), and new S&C and Assistant to come.
Plus, we still have 2 important quota spots to use - expected to be on a half back to partner Abdull (who has been set a weight target for his return to pre season), and an outside back - with another domestic signing or 2 to come in hopefully.
Anyway, enough about next season, please ensure you shut HKR up. They are becoming quite annoying in the City

I was feeling your optimism until I read the bit about Abdull.

| Hoping Tom Forber will get big minutes on Sunday - he really does have huge potential. Great distribution, looks in great condition and gets stuck in as well.

Too many Hull FC fans are deluded
How they can be optimisic about next season when you look at the current recruitment
If you take out Asiata the recruitment is all over the place with a bunch of average Joes i couldnt see any other S/L club wanting to sign.
seriously a backline of Briscoe,Hardaker and Chamberlain is a joke and is likely to be our first choice.
Then we have three others who cant even get into their clubs squads including Holmes from Leigh who i dont think has played more than one or two games this season and cant get into their first team.
The club at the moment is a joke with a new DOR who is only in the position because his father in law looks likey to be taking financial control of the club.

| Hull squad if you're interested. A lot of teenagers and a whopping 2 single figure squad numbers

A question we've been asking ourselves too.
Ultimately I think it's the result of years of poor recruitment and squad management.
It's particularly bad right now as a large number of our overseas players have been shipped out early and not replaced coupled with some injuries and players contriving to get themselves banned regularly.

Same team as last week with Hill in for Ellis then Douglas 18th man then.
Nice the 3 young lads get to warm up with the first team on a game day though
