| There’s quite a few negative posts on here.
This is my take on it.
kr are not unstoppable.
They are not littered with international players.
They’ve lost 3 of their leaders from last season in Abdul skd linnett.
Folk comparing last game at kc is nonsense. Both squads have changed massively since then.
Wingers.. Ryan hall as good as he was he’s now 36?
Wigan thrashed us in the pre season whilst gearing up for world club challenge. Wigan thrashed kr last season in a play off game.
kr have arguably more biscuit players than we have.
who’s going to organise their team around the field
With a bigger and more mobile forward line I think Lane will improve.
Bear in mind we had probably the smallest pack the last few seasons.
The hype and pressure is on kr.
Keep the faith folks !

| The derby has usually been won by the team that wants it the most.
I can only hope Tony Smith has fired the heck out of the players and has them chomping at the bit.
Getting smashed at home last year was the shoitiest low point for years.
Surely all this “ it’s just 2 points” rubbish has gone out of the window.
This is a MASSIVE game and there is more than 2 points available.
There is pride in the shirt and the whole club from Adam to the programme seller.
There is something special to this game and yes we need to play at a level higher than we normally do.
That’s just how Derbies work !!!!
It’s not Wakefield at home
It’s the filthy scum from poorhouse lane with their povo supporters thinking they can throw bricks or bottles onto families.
Let’s win this !!

| They have to strong favourites, but don't think there team is as good as they think, lots of comments about hammering us, but they have a few weakness, very small starting props including Hadley and no kicker (we have this issue and maybe why Smith will start 6), we need to get them into an arm wrestle and make them work hard for metres, start with our usual errors and I'll discipline and it will be an easy Rovers win. Must test out the defence of Lewis, Evalds and Gildart, who either aren't great defenders or playing in ab unusual position.
I'd go with
Walker
Mcintosh
Sutcliffe
Scott
Martin
Smith
Brown
Ese'ese
Houghton
Sao
Okunbor
Ashworth
Cator
Brown
Pele
Staverley
Hoy
Looking at that side, worry about how our backs defensively will get on.

Hull fans invade the pitch at Craven Park 2 arrested for ABH on a woman. Then the famous smashing the goal posts incident and the worst was Boulevard throwing bricks at people, after the 40-0 hiding outside the ground when the CHAVS attacked Rovers supporters walking over the bridge shall I go on.
Your vile attack albeit it childish and immature needs to be stopped and removed from forums like this.
Still another hiding coming by 20+

| One thing that does concern me, is Balmforth not making that squad, 21 players and 5 out, might again be reading more into this, but don't see him getting a chance this season at Hull.

I wouldn't read too much into it. Presumably a 21 man squad has a mix of players to cover any injuries that occur prior to the game and most of our missing players are backs so we need some redundancy in the squad there. All of our players that can play hooker are fit (Houghton, Brown, Smith and, like it or not, Cator) so you could argue he is surplus to requirements in the squad.
That's my take anyway.

Alleged team, no real surprises given who’s available. Would have liked to have seen Stavely over lane.

Yeah agree with all that, just don't get why Lane keeps getting in.
Only real big decision is Smith or Hoy, guess Smith impressed more in pre season and more of a natural halfback.

Agreed, but think with Brown not been a real 7 as well, Smith seems like a more sensible option to give us a bit more balance in the halves. Hoy needs a big season for me, but Walker will be number 1 when fit.

Smith probably has a better long kicking game than Hoy? Which will be important in the early sets of the game to make sure we're clearing the ball as far down the pitch as possible. M
Not sure with Lane, he's not someone who can come off the bench and provide impact to the team

| Yeah think you are both right with regards Smith over Hoy.
