Firstly, to correct the title/subject - this is a seriously DAUNTING trip to the west side. Standards have slipped alarmingly here.

Tough, tough, tough this one. To go to one of powerhouses of the global game is never an easy task. With the fearsome faithful behind Hull FC, it could be a hard 10 minutes before they turn against their team. That said, any FC team that includes Houghton and Shaul shouldn't be taken lightly. They've done us before, and so has Jack Smith - the current leader of the RFL's incompetency ladder. Rovers beware.

Personally think it'll be a tight game but hopefully HKR seeing the game out with Abdull channelling his inner Murrell to drop a goal at the north end. Should any scuffle(s) breakout Nev and Jimmy Walker to sort things out. Mickey to get binned/penalised for his Benny 'wasp' like windups. Mannson to play off a King offload.

Appreciative murmur.

Now let’s crack on and hopefully make the play-offs with at least one game to spare.

We'll, that was both fun and funny.
We played well, but sweet Jesus and the baby goats, Hull are terrible.

I always felt that under Smith (not just him to be fair) our defensive organisation was horrible, and I'm certainly not yet lauding Peters but Hull looked as if they couldn't shut a team down in a game of touch.

Really liking Lickley and King has to be one of the most underrated props in the competition.

Abdul, a joy in our system and we seem to be correctly building a side around him.

Hull bad. Rovers good.
Noughty forty
Fair

A case of one club on the way up who have spent the last few years putting things in place off the field and building towards the future verses one who is going the opposite way
