Very even game IMO, probably the hardest game to pick to far as both teams have had a lot of adversity, players unavailable and are out of form.

I’m looking forward to it (Might not be saying that by halftime) hopefully see some of the fringe and young players and hope they can step up.

Biggest worry for me is the centres, Lyne and Tupou are big strong players and it would be tough for Scott and Fonua.

I'd feel more confident with Connor at centre, but not sure if Last thinks Mcnamara is ready,

That was Chris Green, sitting on a warm up bike

The new changes to salary cap rules for this year explains the sudden availability of Scott and Bienek.

Wise decision targeting the cup because the new points percentage system pretty much makes it mathematically impossible to get in the top 4.

Just been announced Wakey have lost another player with now 9 stood down and 2 staff members due to Covid for Hull game.

That’s not including the injured players. We are down to bare bones now and 2 young players Bailey and Aydin are now given their SL debut through necessity.

Hard to see anything but a win for Hull. It just keeps nosediving for the trinity. Probably doesn’t help that the whole club has just come out of isolation and been unable to train until the start of this week either.

I’m glad the games on though and still looking forward to some rugby,

Lots have in fact changed.

Reading between the lines (well, the HDM) it sounds likes Jones could well have been suffering from coronavirus, as he has only recently returned to the training ground, but could be fit for the cup game.

And we have now got the Duckworth/Lewis method of determining where we will finish, should this sorry state of affairs finish prematurely.

I think the win percentage is in regardless of a premature finish, unless ive misunderstood. But if you look on bbc website the table shows Catalans at the top!

I’m really looking forward to seeing our lads playing against Wakey, seen a few of these kids in the reserves, and also saw a few of the Wakey kids, as their reserve side was made up of young kids, we seem to be pinning our hopes on the cup, perhaps the right decision, time will tell.

Your right it’s just not cricket

Looks like Scott is playing tomorrow

That was released today
Scott was in the 21 for warrington so the clubs must have had a heads up on this last week

I think he will play with Connor on the bench to come on for Albo so both get half a game before Sunday.
Cam Scott has a decent defence and has bulked up a bit so no worries for me at centre
In reality this game means nothing so i would give as many of the younger players a run as possible

No change there then, can you imagine the Challenge cup final, the 79th minute, both teams are level, then one team gets six again three times on the bump.
