Ok Mrs B has gone and predicted a score
I like that !!
Wakey by 14

Let’s all have a go at the score

Flush out those who comment after the result rather than put their credentials on the line

Mrs B is negative on this

I have backed Hull -4

I say Hull by 16

Come on let’s have your predictions

Lol golden point, for a change Jake dropping the goal.

Oh Tarquin, stop it. You're inviting predictions of outlandish winning margins for FC only for these to be used as sticks to beat Radford with when Wakey sneak it! Play sensibly everyone

Have I missed something? Why are you not being your usual positive self, Wakey by 14, what's that all about?
We have the stronger team, a superior coach, I can only see a hard fought game but a Hull win.

Or is it down play Hull's ability, over emphasise our injury predicament, tell people not to bet on your team in order for Wakey to appear favourites so that if we do lose you can maintain the status quo in defending Lee and the team.

By the way I'm not bigging us up to win just so I can beat them with a stick if we don't, as you claim some are.
I genuinely expect a response to Monday and a Hull win.

hull by 10

It's heartwarming that you believe Radford has the ability to coach us to victory against a team in 3rd place despite us missing quite a few, quite the vote of confidence. I'm not as convinced for pack reasons already discussed at length.

Looking forward to the game but think it’s a real tough task for us to come and take the two points again...

A lot is being made of our pack but we’re missing two really experienced props in England and Huby...players not really being talked about with both halfbacks and that deadly dream team left edge missing.

We’ve coped so far without them but I think this may prove a game too far after two big efforts over Easter...neither Fifita or Kopczak trained this week as both have slight niggles...hopeful they play but not a gimme...I’d say our two first choice backrowers are missing too in Batchelor and Ashurst and although Kirmond and Horo have stepped in I think Kirmond in particular may struggle after only just come back into the side and playing both Easter games...

The rest of the pack then you’re talking Arona and Pauli who’ve both been playing big minutes and could feel the affect of this 3rd game, so too Keegan Hirst...

It’s been a great ride so far for us Trinity fans and the lads will give their all but it might just favour the fresher side and although since the opening day debacle at London our worst margin of defeat since was a 6 point one to Saints with a late score...I feel we may just be on the end of our worst defeat so far...as a betting man Hull -4 looks unreal...

I agree
FC are evens at -6
Easiest money ever
Gamble responsibly as FC can materially affect your losses lol

Hull by 19

According to you we are joint 3rd, so what difference does that make? but now you're confirming Wakefield are 3rd and not us, how contradictory of you.
Again getting your excuses in for a loss, conveniently.
Again as already discussed at length Wakey have no recognised 1st choice halfs and a depleted backline as long as we don't take them on through the middle and keep turning their forwards around I believe we do have enough to win.
I'm also touched I've warmed your heart believing in Radford. As we're often reminded he has led us too 2 cup wins and 2 top 4 finishes so why should he not coach us to victory over a depleted Wakefield side at home.
I'm disappointed you now under value him and don't believe he has the ability to beat a team in joint 3rd.

That's the spirit, I'm with you on this 1

Well we are joint third. There are no excuses needed for a loss against a team that's also joint third, they are there for a reason, that being they are decent enough



Yes, that's pretty much what I said other than the predicted outcome, but we're all entitled to different opinions on that, right? Bookies made an industry out of it.

What a lovely start to the day. That's going in my sig.



It is worth reminding people about. Some on here post more about me than they did about winning at Wembley. Mind-boggling that these achievements are dismissed so readily.
He might well do. I've not said it's impossible and said I hope it will be close. My opinion is that if Fifita keeps up his MoS points spree and they get early ball wide we might struggle. Our edge defence wasn't amazing last week.

I do value Radford highly, unlike many. I also think our side's biggest weakness, as stated many times, is our pack, and I'm a big fan of Wakefield's. Without a platform any set of halves struggle to manage a game.
It's just a bit tricky aligning the position 4 weeks ago of Radford putting the club in imminent club danger and needing removal with expecting him to oversee a straightforward win against a club in joint 3rd.

"Expect the worst, hope for the best, take what comes" as my Nana used to say. We will all be there tomorrow wanting the same thing.

The last paragraph regardless of our persuasions is something we can all agree. We all just choose different paths to get there and shouldn't be lambasted for it.

always said you was my best mate lol

It’s a love in

Hull to win by 12

I would like to see a similar game plan, as to that utilised against Catalan. Radford got it spot on that day but think the heat and the early morning flight all played a part in FC tiring late on. Home venue and Wakey supposedly understrength, I’m going for another close game with us winning by 8

Wakey by 6, just because of the superior strength in their forwards (hope I'm wrong!)

Mrs B and Bombed Out in mutual admiration society. Who would have thought it??

Like May and Corbyn having a lovely pint together

Superior strength in the forwards! Really , you mean fiffita? Considering most rate Taylor as a world class forward , I don’t see how that’s the case , 1 man doesn’t make a team , they’ve plenty of injuries to. I know the game ain’t played on paper, but looking at the 2 17s , we should be winning this . If not , then questions do need asking why we haven’t , making excuses for a defeat before we’ve even played mrs b is just ridiculous. Looking forward to this one , COYH

Surely no one can doubt a near full strength Hull side will beat a depleted wakefield? Especially when you take into account that we are coached by our most successful coach in 2 generations and wakey by the hull kr cast off? Where's your belief?

Er, no - not just Fifita! He's the standout forward, but what about: Pauli Pauli (6ft 5ins, 18st 13lb), Keegan Hirst (6ft 5ins, 19st 3lb), Craig Kopczak (6ft 4ins, 17st), Justin Horo (6ft 3ins, 15st 10oz), with Tinirau Arona for good measure (he's a relative lightweight at 5ft 11ins and 16st 10lb!

Oh right it’s all about size then !! That’s not the wife says

We’ve some pretty big lads in green Ellis and masi, westermans a unit, manu easily as big as arona , so yeh , not sure what’s so superior
