I don't think any RL players in the world fear their opposition, silly talk imo.
Rovers should win looking at form, in fact the should win by around 20 points. That said when you beat us 42-6 we could not have been in better form and you could not have been in worse. Over the years I have watched rugby and in particular the derbies form is not always important and upsets often occur as it's a unique one off game. That said I am not hopeful, we are not a bad side it's just that we have no confidence and ceratin players know they are going, should we raise our game for this one match it could be a belter, if not it will be an easyish win for Rovers.

This reminds me of the Northern Rail Final against Leigh when everyone thought it was nailed on we would win and look what happened there...
...BEWARE...even if they don't want to play for Agar they will play for the pride in their shirt and derby loyalities on Saturday...a very dangerous prospect I think...'"
You reckon?

| Granted Derbies are notorious for throwing up upsets.
However, if I were Morgan I'd be telling the players that they will never have a better chance of posting 50 points and putting the record Derby score out of reach.
I expect us to be ruthless.

That will the same at all clubs.
I am confident of a Rovers victory and if Cooke plays a convincing one. Saying that i have seen to many derbies where the form book has been turned upside down and whilst confident would never rule out the unexpected.

| Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista":lol: Not being overdramatic, but we shipped 40 at Cas and they had 5 tries disallowed and were outplayed for 70 minutes at home vs an extremely average Celtic side.
Who exactly is going to engineer an FC victory? Our tactically astute and highly motivational coach? Our scrum half (either Thorman, possibly the worst player in the irregular hoops since the nineties and unceremoniously dragged off the pitch at Cas, yet to return, or a hooker)? Our ball-busting front row (oh, that's right, Dowes, Cusack, Lauaki, possibly Thackray, all injured - and not really fearsome anyway)? We are playing the worst rugby I can remember for years. The only thing you can say is at least we are consistent, having beaten only Salford, Celtic and Cas since our 5 from 5 start, and not playing well even in those wins.

get you excuses in early
