Surely a MUST WIN - I say this because we are due a response to the Saints garbage.
Also what message does another loss send ?

We have 3 away matches after this home game and I don’t fancy going to Wakefield on a losing run

We have to win in my opinion - no ifs or buts

Maybe not a must win and an important game.

You would have to be disappointed if we don't win, with them having the cup final next week, our home form and fact we only lose by a point away.

Has to pick the right team and drop underperforming players particularly when we have players ready to come in. It won't happen, but I'd go with

Connor
Swift
Wynne
Carlos
Mcintosh
Hookem
Gale
Sao
Lovodua
Evans
Lane
Mau
Brown

Satae
Taylor
Griffin
Houghton

Not a must win. Every game now is important though. Can see Wigan putting a full strength team out. Get among them early. Our home form been good this. Hopefully get a good crowd and get behind the lads

Good team, Hodgson probably play JJ at 6

Great team that Dave but like you say BH is loyal to certain players so expect to see Reynolds at 6 and Houghton to start at 9

I'd go with that but with Mitch on the bench over Griffin, I'd were selecting players on form, in fact I'd have Wynne on the bench as utility option.

Connor
Mac
Carlos
Wynne
Swift
Grub
Gale
Tag
Mint
Sao
Lane
Ma'u
Lover
Subs
Satae
Griffin
Brown
JJ

I think this will be his team. Hate the fact Hodgson has his favorites and won't give youth players a good go.

Brown, Wynne, McNamara, Scott have all featured pretty heavily this season when fit and Balmforth has made his debut.

Is Hookem seen more as a hooker now anyway? That's where he played for Whitehaven

Kaide Ellis missing from the Wigan team as he's got a one match ban.

Griffin should be dropped altogether until he ups his workrate and gets some fitness into him
If you watch the Saints match highlights on FC live and Saints last two tries Griffin just couldnt be bothered and looked totally disinterested.
I would still play Wynne at left centre with Swift.Its a pity about Mitch as he has showed he is a very good defender and can make some metres.He kept Leutele quiet and not many centres can say that.

move Griffin to Batley please

My record on predicting Hull results this season is none out of many. So let's keep it going!

Wigan to win by a few.

I agree Dave but is Hookem ready to come in against a top tough side like Wigan I don't think so IMO yet.
