Its not so much the fear of losing,its the endless stick we would get afterwards.
Will Rovers rename the 10-5 bar if they win?

Not confident, although I never am when it comes to derbies and that's been the case for 30 odd years!

Indeed.

I dont usually stick my neck out in the derby build up, but if we play anything like we can then I just cant see them beating us

Im never confident in derby games, could go either way. The first try is massive though imo, I will be a lot more confident if we can get points on the board before they do.

if we can keep our diclipline and control the ball with running our sets out and a good kick-chase, then i cant see anything other than an fc win....our pack is far too dominant for theres....also a massive line shot by yeaman on newton wouldnt go a-miss................one of those bone-rattlers earlydoors, and you wont see him all night....guaranteed

A few of you have mentioned Longy but .......... if you had the option in your team of Long or Dobbo
or Fitz Vs his counter part or Omeally Vs his counter part were as RL fans do you stand?

Who is this Omeally you speak of?

id have dobson over long, but theres no-one near in your team who id take over fitz and ogre...maybe newton....cus he's younger

im nervous as hell, not confident, as that gets you nowhere

Very confident in this b&w household, got a feeling were gonna really hit form
in this this high stake game.

The likes on long,fitz ,o'meley and berro excel in these games.

FC 38 kr 14

Come on u ulllllaaaaaaaa

I would take Long, when fit he is still better, plus he knows how to tackle it is always a bonus in a derby

I regret saying this, but for the first time ever I am confident going into a Derby. I am sure it'll be knocked out of me inside 10 mins of the game, but just can see us sorting them out in this one. 30-10 FC

26.14 win for the FC.
