I'm feeling more optimistic than I usually do going into a match. That's worrying.

going to miss this one as im going away but given my pass to my brother in law who is a hull fan so he can take his lad who is rovers fan hes not happy

Likely to be the toughest game of the season so far, glad Green and Allgood are both back. One blessing is that we only had a light training game on Thursday, so should have some energy.

I know what you mean, but I think I can help.

Huddersfield are a top quality team, with a big powerful pack and real pace out wide. We know it's going to be tough, especially backing up after a derby, but we'll give it a red hot crack.

Take a trip to Hudds board. A lot of them are conceeding defeat 2 days in advance!!!

how did hull manage nil them and score 19 points also

As I recall there are a good few of the "glass is half empty" brigade over there. They're a good team who played poorly in their last game.

I've just been on their forum and they are complaining about a lack of intensity and line speed from their pack v Salford as well as a high error count. As their set completion was below 50%, they had to defend a lot in wet conditions on a heavy pitch and as a team they collectively made over 400 tackles. Brough and others started moaning instead of playing and their game dissolved to rat s**t.
Taking nothing for granted, we might just have better energy levels come Monday. They are a good team, but now is a good time to be playing them.

God knows!

only one


the rest of us are cautiously optimistic, as we tend to be before every game
i'm looking forward to it, we were pretty poor last night and we need to have a massive improvement or your halves will tear us to pieces.
i hope Lunt thinks he's still playing for us and puts in the kind of performance he had in the last 18 months for us!

I just hope that whichever set of fans end up on the losing side can refrain from whining about the opposition.
It would be so refreshing.
