Bless 'im.

Bless us all tonight well us black & whites anyway. Have a good night mate. #COYH.

I wouldn't believe anything I hear on radio or read in paper . He's not going to come out and say Ellis isn't playing is he .

Yep. What would derby day be without petty insults and banter?

Hull hate Rovers and Rovers hate Hull. Thus it was ever so. But blessed are the rugby fans of Hull who are privileged to enjoy such unique rivalry and neither side would have it any other way.

It's them and us and determined undermining by either side will continue for evermore. Mutual loathing will out. See merger thread for details.

Ellis defo out?

Massive blow if Ellis is out.

No, it's not. Cas are a far better team and we beat them without Ellis, Mini and and Paea. Whiting and Mini will be enough in that second row, with Thompson at prop. Thats a pretty mobile pack.

If we're relying on Ellis to beat Rovers, it's a poor state of affairs.

Without doubt. No denying it.

But we beat Cas without him, we can beat this shower.

Don't understand all this we beat Cas so we"ll beat rovers . No 2 games are the same , did fancy us all week but I don't now . Not without paea and Ellis . Think rovers will just want it more tonight , but we"ll still claim 8th

If rovers players "want it more" I'd demand our players sacked!!!!!

Kelly fit and playing according to Blunderside

kelly playing, ellis out. Can't see us winning this one but still think we'll make the 8

win for us, COYH

He can't be 100% fit?

Smash him early.

Ultimately, Kelly or no Kelly, our attitude and concentration will be the main factor tonight. If we play with the required desire (which should be a given) and cut out the sloppy errors and needless pen, then I think we have to much for them.

Sadly I fear an error ridden performance and a beating!

Have faith! For some strange reason i have - Ellis is a big loss but we have good back ups
