Is anybody really that bothered though?

It's a chore as much as anything now this game

On the forum last night Radders stated he would be playing 23-24 players he'd spoken to Sandycrack who said he'd be playing all fit players 25-26, would expect a fairly competitive 1st half, end of the day its a trial game with no points at stake, neither coach will want to lose and equally neither coach will want to pick up any injuries, doubt that AP's sensationalised comments in the HDM will change how the game pans out.

Not bothered if we win or lose and nothing to shout about by the winning team whichever one it is, would hope to see Hull cross the whitewash a little more than at Bradford and tighter in defence.

Thurs 17th April is the first Derby that matters (unless we draw each other in round 4 of CC)

Still heard nothing regarding Magic but I hope it's not a Derby, as some one mentioned at the forum last night with relegation for two teams this season nobody should be entitled to an easy ride e.g Catalan v Broncos

@SuperLeague: The @SuperLeague #magicweekend fixtures will be announced at 2pm today! Who are you hoping to be facing the Etihad in May? #rugbyleague

A guy at the forum asked if AP would bring up to the rfl that both hull and rovers get harder games than a lot of other teams and with relegation and then the 3 split leagues if the magic weekend should be drawn out of a hat . Thought he had a great point tbf

Should drawn out of the hat live in sky sports. I would love to play Leeds at magic weekend would be a good game with good atmosphere.

TBF Wigan and Saints have usually had tough games as well. A draw would be the only fair way to do it. They need to play the 'Derby' teams events one after the other as this will encourage more fans to stay.

I know, who'd have thought, Cockend is not the point of our abuse

Said in the HDM today that Sundays game is the 1st of 4 this seson.

So derbys I reckon, or the HDM doesnt know what its talking about again.

I'm all for a bit of banter but some things are best left well alone and I think this is one.

Well quite!

We have a winner!

I agree. Few things tend to go above derby day 'banter', however, on this occasion and due to the nature of the incident, I feel it is better left alone.
