Stranger things have happened, I think Stan still fancies playing for PNG in the World Cup.

I think that was tongue in cheek, but yet it still somehow wouldn't surprise me. The guy is still an absolute tank.

The way the injuries are piling up we might have to. He retired too young anyway

it would make sense stans only about 31 isn't he

Cant believe sky was stupid enough to air this silly daft rumour, or perhaps I can.
HDM will be running it later in the week !

In the not too distant pass a lot of your fans were bigging your club up for giving your youngsters their chance in the first team,so why when you say you have an injury crisis is their no call for james green,rich beaumont,keal carlisle and omari caro and the like.

Well edith believed it

Its Sandy that goes on about the missing "automatic selections" we have plenty of players fit tbh just that they aren't the most experienced !!!
Rich Beauy had a bad virus at the weekend btw.Oh and its Keal CARLILE !!!!

Green and Beaumont have both played a few times recently - Netherton only played because Beaumont had a virus according to Sky. Walker, Griffin and Cox also. Salter in the centres. Carlile was playing regularly when Withers was out. Caro might be where some of those are now, next year, if he works hard at his game.

It's actually been one of the really positive aspects of this year for me - it felt like starting from scratch a bit with the sales of Taylor and Watts, plus the departures of Sheriff and Peterson. But 3 or 4 have come on really well this year - not to the verge of an international call-up in the immediate future, or anything, but so they can be picked on merit irrespective of injuries or 'giving the kids a go'.

Saw Stan very late on FRiday night in Larkins Beer Festival so he will been ready for his re-debut .

Please everyone, Bradford is going to be an extremely tough game.

Just because we made Hull look ordinary...again....doesn't mean Bradford is a picnic.

Hull are a very mediocre attacking team who rely on teams running out of steam & patience if they defend well enough for long enough. That's OK and I've often wished Rovers could do it but it's not enough in the big intense games where the other team is just as up for it as they are.

Hull are so mediocre they actually think Daniel Holdsworth is some kind of creative genius when actually he's nothing more than a good kicker of the ball. The words not, fit, lace, boots and Dobson come to mind.

Bradford offer a different challenge altogether. They have more flair and unpredictability than 'coach by numbers' Hull FC. It will be far more difficult to defend against them than boring, no ideas Hull FC .

At least we won't have a video ref to contend with...

Good post, in a post about Rovers v's Bradford, you only managed to mention Hull 4 times.

If you watched Hull in the last few weeks, you would have seen that we have played some good rugby, if fact watch the game and the weekend, we broke the line a lot more that Rovers and created much more scoring chances, poor handling let us down in the end.

Back on topic, Bradford are poor at the moment and if you play with anyway near the intensity that you showed on Saturday, you will win comfy.

Oh my goodness , you still think you are something special don't you?

If Hull had played in my front garden these last few weeks I would have closed my curtains.

You're ordinary, live with it.
