No team of professionals would be able to watch that game back from Friday and not be thoroughly embarassed by it, Agar may not be able to motivate the team but their own professional pride should kick in.

I agree, hence why I expect a better performance on Sunday... Amazingly we were in the game to the last 15 minutes with a shocking performance, yet Leeds have not produced much better than their performance all season.Far too early to write us off imo.

the best thing we could do is ban Agar from the training ground, let Fitz and O'Meley impress on the team just how unacceptable Friday was, our attack was abysmal on the few occasions we had the ball.

Not a bad idea

The positives was our defence was acceptable, we need to look at cutting out the errors, some of our offloads were totally stupid play....It was apparent the game plan was to win the games with our forwards, we failed miserably! we need to mix it up more..we need to shift the ball out to the wings, Yeamo & Briscoe have been scoring for fun this year! letting them see the bleeding ball may help. Also we need to slow Leeds down at the plb, and we need to let Westy take the penalty kicks instead of Obst.
Oh and finally we need to give Tickle the captains armband because when he has that he is out-standing.

So far this season we've taken 3 points from a possible 20 against sides currently above us in the table. Doesn't give me much confidence taht we'll take many more points from the remaining 4 games we have against teams now above us

how longs Dereu out for?

I like the way people assume that we'll get a 'positive reaction' this week. Remember last season when we were soundly beaten at Headingley in the league game? I remember people saying then that we'd 'get a reaction' in the cup the week after but sadly it didn't happen did it? What makes anyone think it'll be different this time around? You can say all you want about this being the worst Leeds team in living memory but they still did us over on Friday night which says a lot about how bad we really are.

If we get knocked out of the cup we will finish 7th, we will beat Les Cats, Crusanders and Cas.

If we beat Leeds we will finish 8th as we will get beat by Catalans with the semi in mind.

Rovers will only win one more game against Cas last game of the season.

Was it you who won the euro lottery last week?

Nope, if I had a I would be sat the offices of Hull FC writing Agar's P45.

He's not far off the mark though.

doubt that.

tbh mate, it isnt just 1 bad performance, imo friday was the worst because we didnt break 1 tackle against a poor leeds team. the best way to prepare for the cup game would of been to have gone to leeds and to have given them a pasting which hull would of done even with an o.k.ish performance, i dont think we will finish 8th but i dont really care if we dont, 7th, 8th or 9th is mid table mediocrity and is simply not acceptable for a club at full spend on the cap. the fact we are scrapping to make the numbers up in the play offs shows the season has been littered with disapointing performances.

You will beat Leeds on Sunday then draw Cas in the semi's due to them beating an out of sorts Hudds.
Jammy sods.

I think we will beat Crusaders and Catalans.

We will lose to Wigan.

Cas game could go either way.

I can see us beating Wire. Its the last game of the season, they will probably have secured top spot by then and will have one eye on their first play off game.
