Wow that's positive thinking, and you know what I'll join you, why not.

Steady on with 8th PT but, I love your optimism.
Certainly 10th should be a target but, as the old adage goes, one game at a time !

Unless the deal specifically states there’s no recall option, which there is no evidence there is, then the could recall him should they wish to. I doubt they will but i imagine it is possible. I’d be surprised if they let him play against them though this week either way.

Saints may well not rest anybody as the Disciplinary has done a great job for them in that respect so far this nseason.

After yesterday, I'd say win both....

Jake Conner will be a massive loss to Hull this Fri , thought the the tide turned when he went off in our last outing against them , when he has his head screwed on he’s a nightmare to defend against with that cutout pass ,Kane Evans also sitting this one out on the naughty boys step .Don’t like the favourite tag at all but one last rousing performance and a Wigan win and it’s two fingers up to the powers that be and hopefully our recruiting begins in earnest .

Add a Leeds win <spits> to that and 10th looks possible... cue Trinity capitulation

Bet365 has Hull FC down as slight favourites. Trinity are getting 2 start …
Still slight underdogs, just how we like it!

Not as daft as it sounds really!
Kruise Leeming said on the SL show Trinity would have beaten any SL side with that performance against Wigan - so we know they CAN play a bit - the key word though is consistency. It depends on how much they want it but they are capable.

I think right now is a good time to be playing against both Hull sides, and are both there for the taking.

Also, I wouldn’t be surprised, if Saints or Huddersfield rest a few, if their positions are confirmed before we play them. Could we win all 4. That would be some momentum to end the season.

Agreed, it would be nice to start planning next season, regarding signings. Who knows, maybe we already have our eye on some

Actually just to correct myself, 8th isn't mathematically possible as the 2 Hull teams play each other.
9th will be OK though.

I'm wondering what the squad will be for this.
With Tanginoa out and possibly Shaul not allowed to play, it hits us in the weakest areas.

If Shaul doesn't play, then Gaskell will have to go back to 1. That leaves a centre free. I assume we'll bring Croft back in and move Hall back to left. That leaves the right weaker again, just through inexperience.
But add Tanginoa to that too and we have a hole at right SR, which hasn't got a natural replacement without Pitts.
So we could put Crowther there, or a young lad in (I'm not sure who is playing there in the reserves or Academy who could step up. But either way we end up with an inexperienced SR and centre on the right.
We could easily end up leaking tries through there again.
