Both sides have been pretty inconsistent so far this year so it's a really tough one to call. It'll come down to whichever side is willing put the most effort into the game IMO, in which case on past form it's a Rovers win.

FC..by 16

You're a more optimistic person than I.

Both teams will be fired up and hitting their straps after suffering losses...FC have the edge on recent performances imo

However not with recent derby performances IMO, we always seem to get out enthused.

Lot of changes to FC this year, and a few changes to KR, Cookie has always spanked us in the Derby, KR will miss him on Friday.

But perhaps not the key one?


I do think you're right though in that Cooke not playing will be a big plus for us as he always had a stormer.

Only bothers one half then goes missing...



Do look forward to him try to stop Hame, his defence is pants

We just need to sledge/niggle him and he will give us more metres than he will give you

You may be right



Depends which head he has on..we can never tell

His St Helens head or the one he has worn in every match since you mean.

Anyway according to your own board he is only a project anyway....and we now how the last project ended up.

im looking forward to the derby, gonna be a tough old game thats for sure.
