Their left edge attack against our right edge defence is gonna be a concern from previous weeks. Be interesting to see if we stick with the same team and we've worked all week at it, or we make a tactical change for this match.

Think LR would go with Hadley over the two. Will help keep things tight, but lacks the impact of Thompson.
Suppose it depends which game plan they go with.
A few players are going to miss out, and you could make cases for all of them.
Good position to be in I suppose.

I agree, think he'll stick with Hadley.

I'd play thompson personally. We need to have impact off the bench IMO not a steady player. If we go with a half back as interchange we also need bigger forwards with better go forward.

Bowden and Frank offer pretty good impact.

Don't be fooled Yed.

Wire are all out to finish LL.
A defeat to Hull will all but write top off, furthermore the defeat could really be a belly blow and send negative signals throughout the CC too.

In many the game v Hull is the first part of winning the Shield, Cats the follow game being the final second part.
If Wire let that slip, it'll be the worst collapse since loosing the league under Ashcroft.

Hull won't get a hangover from a loss, they won't really have expected a win, and I'm fairly sure, pre season their goal was to finish in the top 4. I know ours is much higher than that.

In my opinion, anything less that 1st at the split is a failure.

Wire win for me because we need it more, and because at near full strength we are a better team than Hull.
Hull away required Gidley missing and in all actions Lineham missing...3 of them, from a win.
I hope Hull finish in the top 2, they have earned it but not above Wire.

Just to clarify, weren't Warrington at near full strength in the game against Hull earlier in the year? Gidley, Russell and Dwyer were missing, anyone else? Genuine question, I thought your team looked pretty strong that day.

FYI, Hull were missing Fonua, Talanoa, Tuimavave, Pryce, Pritchard, Manu, Minichiello and Thompson, all of whom will likely be in the team for Friday (depending on who Radford decides to play at stand-off).

Lineman bombed a couple, but so did Hull. That said, I don't think that result will have any bearing on Friday.

Think Friday will be a great game between the top 2 in the league, on merit. Warrington seem to have come out of their dip with two strong performances (coinciding with the return of Sandow). Hull have been winning, but seem to have lulled a bit performance wise following the tough Catalans, Saints away, Wigan away run, possibly showing some signs of fatigue. I am hoping Hull can raise their game (we'll need to) and come away with the 2 points, but I am taking nothing for granted. Two excellent teams, could go either way.

We beat you with literally our 2nd team? I agree you have more superstars on paper in your team, but we have a better balance and overall better team. If you picked a wire and FC combined starting 13 I'm sure we would have more. Looking forward to the game as it is a real challenge for both teams!

I went to the FC game, we looked more than comfortable first half, to a point I thought we were going to rack up a big score at one point, then second half fell apart, strange game that was.
Bloody Easter and we looked knackered and I think Radford kept it fresh by resting a few, a very shrewd gamble that paid off, I think Gids would have made a difference but that's ifs and maybes.

I genuinely think without arrogance that if both teams are at full strength and playing at their peak we have a slight edge, but I wouldn't gamble any serious money on it, I still think you're one world class or MoS class halfback off a pure balance.

This game, I want us to win, I think we can but I don't expect it, this game will be imho tight at about the 65-70 min mark with something special from somewhere winning it for someone, just looking forward to it, the very essence of what makes sport exciting for me is this game, evenly matched at the top of their game with the trepidation of complete uncertainty.
All I will wish you is a safe journey and no injuries to your guys on the field.

Got a feeling we are gunna get a reality check on Friday ,hope I'm wrong but would be pleased with good game with tight score line.

To be honest it just too close to call and that's what makes this game special and hope it lives up to expectations. Think both teams have huffed and puffed a bit of late with us not putting in anywhere near an 80 minute performance yet and with Warrington blowing games that they were certainly not expected too adds to it even more.

Think Warrington have the edge if I'm honest with the likes of Sandow & Gidley but only if they are on top form, but it all depends on which teams forwards can get their team on the front foot and keep overall momentum.

Just hope both teams turn up and put their best performances on for 80mins as it will be a cracker. As a Hull fan I expect it to be close but for us to just come up short to be honest as it may be one game too far. I wouldn't be disappointed with a loss as this season so far have been a massive improvement and I've seen more this season from the current team then I have from the last 8 seasons put together.
