He wasn't named in the 19

Likely Hull line-up:

McKinnon
Sharp
Martin
Yeaman
Briscoe
Horne
Seymour
Lynch
Houghton
Moa
Manu
Tickle
Aspinwall

Ellis
O Meley
O Carroll
Whiting

That's a strong side! Work cut out this week.

stop manu, tickle, yeaman and briscoe and they can certainly be beaten.

I took the opening line as being the poster's prediction

They look to have a good balance to their pack and in O'Meeley have a bulldozing prop that can cause damage coupled with Manu's offloads and we may struggle up front

Hope I'm wrong, but I think it'll be a big win for Hull.

I've been thinking the same all weekk, reckon they might quite easily cover the handicap of +18

Hull are nothing special so i dont expect them to win big close game Hull just

The way to beat FC is to close down Houghton, he is a busy player and likes to be on the front foot. At the same time you need to get your forwards running at FCs half backs, Horne in particular, and pressurise them when they have the ball. Do that and I will be quids in with Wakey's odds @ 6/1 lol!

. . . I meant to add; Rich Agar knows this and I know for a fact he wants to get one over his old club!
