London didn’t do to bad last week, we traveled to France and back , same day, an hour and half flight each way . Can’t see France been the reason for defeat

Didn’t we play Catalans before the last time we beat the Dobbins?

Agree though that it’s ridiculous asking a team to play on a Thursday night after a trip to France

Even with the stupidly short turn around if the 17 named perform like they can as a team then they should still come away with the 2pts.

It’s not a transatlantic flight going to France it’s an hour away you where back in Hull before midnight

Don’t expect us to tell
The opposition who’s fit and who’s not
That helps them plan in advance

Let them stay guessing until the latest as possible

You have obviously not flown to Perpignan from Humberside as Hull Fc do.
By jet its approx 2hours and 10 minutes
Hull charter an Eastern Airways aircraft on this occasion a Saab 2000 which is a fast prop aircraft but it takes a little longer 2 hours 30 minutes

"Thursday’s game will not make or break Hull FC's season in the same way it might for Rovers" say the Rovers reporter in the HDM.

Still, not much different to getting the coach back from Wigan / Widnes.

It would be the effect of playing in the heat which may have been a bigger factor

The main problem teams now have in their planning, is that we have recently become multi- dimensional in attack. Therefore very hard to plan against, no matter who is playing.

I hope we wipe the floor with them but just have a sneaky feeling it could be one of those games where we're not on it from the off and get turned over easily. I expect them to start with masoe and garbutt and try to hit us hard early on.

We need a win to keep the pressure on wire who could lose this weekend although I expect saints to send a weakened side to them and wire to pick up the points

Tough one this, as much as I want to beat KR I would love to contribute to sending Leeds down.
