didn't need anything to get me hyped up and excited about this game, "friendly" or not i'm excited now i've watched this and derby highlights

Didnt realise KO was 14:00

I don't like the idea of having a derby as a friendly, I think it just devalues it. 3 times (with of course the prospect of a CC and/or Playoff game too) is more than enough.

If I was a 'pay on the day' fan, I'd be keeping my money for the Warrington game.

We've had no rugby for 4 and a half months. I'd pay £20 to watch the warm up.

U wud pay 50 quid mrs b just to watch em do they're squatting

Starting to get excited about this game now and how people can just dismiss it as meaningless I find a little odd. To me the chance to see how the new players and the squad as a whole are shaping up plus the fact we've had no rugby from the black n white's for four months is just too big a draw.

Think rovers may just sneak it but Ihope I'm wrong.

So how many tickets have been sold. Rumours on here are that only 6500 tickets have been sold. Someone has just told me 15000 have been sold. Can't see that to be honest

it will only be meaningless as a game if one or other of the teams make a full teams worth of substitutions at half time, if both sides use a smaller squad of around 20 players then it should be a good game

Not to me it won't for the reasons i've already stated. Wether we use 4 or 10 subs it won't be a meaningless to me.

its meaningless as the result is a fourgone conclusion

rovers will win and youll all be on here the day after slagging off your new signings
