If you really believe all that in what you've just posted, then your in for a rude awakening.
I'd actually say you're a troll or an FC fan if you really think Clarkson is the only forward you rate from our team. Laughable really.

Definitely not an FC fan or troll. You lot seem awfully defensive. think you know this is your biggest test yet. Not after a bite and I've already said in my first post Saturday will not be easy by any standards. The stats and figures don't really shine all that bright for either team, reality is we've played one more super league team than you's have and couldn't get the result.

I think after watching Leigh fall to pieces on Sunday, you's will probably be a tougher test now. May the best team win but yeah I think our pack the last couple of weeks have been brilliant. There aren't any big prop names who'll break the line every time like Fafita but our work rate lately has been nothing short of outstanding. As you would say about your lads.

Keep a lid on White and match them in forwards and that will go a long way to getting 2 pts.Think they only had 2 away wins in regular season? Leigh apparently turned up with stinking attitude and Widnes got the win, fair enough but we more than match them and I suspect/hope Masoe and Carney really turn up for this one .Just got feeling Mr Carney is due a monster game for us

Can't disagree that this will be our biggest test so far in this comp but that could equally be said about this for Widnes. The only team you've played who we haven't is Wire and fell way short, so with home advantage added that will certainly even things up.

We need to get the early intensity right and see if we can get the crowd bouncing, make it a bit of a couldron of old.

Don't wish injury on anyone but below is a quote from Widnes website. Their starting 1 and 7 from this past weekend unavailable.

"Denis Betts has confirmed that fullback Rhys Hanbury will unlikely feature again in 2017 following the adductor injury suffered against Leigh Centurions.

Denis also confirmed that Danny Craven will miss out on Saturday’s trip to Hull Kingston Rovers, but will be assessed further later to see the full extent of the injury. It is hoped that Danny will be available to return for the Vikings remaining Super 8s fixtures."

Hanbury particularly and White were big ones to keep quiet.

Loss for The Chemic's.

The forward arguement is interesting. Jewitt seems to have been made aware that his penalty count was unacceptable and tempered his game whilst still being affective.
Scruton has had an absolutely stellar season, he'd have stood out in SL this year (and I'll stand by that), Masoe, can do better, Lunt is head and shoulders above anyone that they can bring, Kavanagh gains quick PTB all day.

Mulhern has been packing all year, Blair is on it and Lawler wants it.

I don't think we'll get bullied, if we want it and we make East Hull the fortress it should be, we'll get there.

If Widnes do it, then fair play.

They've not had a good team spirit this season, we need to jump on them and put doubt into there.

Then kill them.

Hanbury is a big loss for them.

We have a much better coach than them. Lunt is again the key. However nerves may play a big part with us needing one win to go up.

We could get a role on and if we do they are in for a long afternoon. Masoe could play a bigger role. Our centres look a threat and it will be interesting to see if they can contain Carney.

Our points difference hides the fact that without our first choice 1 and 6 we've still been the better side in each game. Sheens' plans get us over the line in each game.

Too many people on here seem awfully sure we'll win. I'll be there but I'll say Widnes are clear favourites for this game and rightly so. I'm not confident of a win but then again i'm always a pessimist.

As I started this thread, this game is going to be tough.

In 2006 we had to beat Widnes to get promoted and were the underdogs, and here we are again although in different circumstances.

I don't know what Widnes forum you've read pal, but let me assure you that no one that I know thinks Saturday will be an easy victory. This year we've been excrement! On the contrary, its comical that there are HKR fans who seem to know Widnes' best side, and the brain surgeons think that Greg Burke will play centre! Just shows you how much they've watched Widnes this year! Greg Burke physique makes Mick Burke look like Seb Coe in his pomp! Anyway, see you Saturday!

He 'played' for us as well.Tub o Lard .Big unit with little aggression looks the shape of a rugby union turnip

This is quite comical as most Widnes fans don't want Greg Burke in the 19 squad and since players have come back from injury he has not been in the squad. I am the first to say Burke is useless and I think he should be playing for Simms Cross as he is that bad. Gerrard coming back from injury is a big bonus for Widnes and Burkey won't be taking his place. Well no Widnes Fan will think it is easy unless they know nothing on Rugby League.
