I spoke to Groupon on Friday as I am waiting for mine. They referred me to the RFL. I spoke to them on Friday and they blamed FC for the delay saying they had not sending them the tickets. They said they were getting them either Saturday or Monday and they should be posted out Monday evening. I queried what would happen if the did not show up by Thursday and the RFL said to contact them if they don't turn up.'"
Thank you.

They received tickets today and will be sending them out today

Again thanks.
Back on topic, I think it will either be close Hull win or an easy Rovers win.
We look better at home (As you do), but if you put the ball out wide, i think you will have too much skill and pace for us, our only chance of victory is to keep it tight and in the forwards (Which is a boring style at the moment) and take our limited chances. If you can defend well and can an equal amount of ball (Or slightly less) you will win.
Unfortunately for me, I can only see a Rovers easy victory.

Fair assessment and that is how Widnes beat us, we need to be smart and keep out of the forward battle as we did on Friday. If we take Friday's attitude in then we should win but HKR away have been a very different side from HKR at home.

To be honest I thought your forwards gave a really account of themselves on Friday. I know the backs take all the plaudits but credit where its due.

| Liking all the decent chat on these forums at the moment, long may it continue.
Obviously, if Hull win the Derby it will be back to what it was.... ☺

| I'd be stunned if Rovers didn't win this derby given the one up, flat attacking rugby we're playing at the moment.
Rovers will be buoyant after their win against Saints and I think the confidence will carry into Thursday.
Obviously hope that I'm wrong!!

| I think Rovers will want it more, it seems Radford has made us complacent, we just seem to think all we need to do is turn up. I hope it's a great game and the side that play best win, nothing controversial from the officials.

I agree our forwards did a great job but it never was a forward slugfest, we moved the ball and let the centres make the yards. We won't win a war of attrition and we need to make it a game of pace, Lunt has been a great signing as it certainly allows us to win more yards around the ptb

Well said. It makes a very pleasant change to some of rubbish that passes for conversation.

| I feel we missed a chance at widnes to start building momentum and confidence and get the 1st away win of the season but with hard work against saints we get a second bite at the cherry to really kick start our season a win at hull and hopefully keep our home form going against hudds will put us at the right end of the table, I just hope we don't flap our lines again

All the talk locally is of Rovers being favourites. It's an attempt to shift pressure off a team that loves to pile pressure on it's coach. Rovers are 0 from 3 away from home this season, and look like going into the game with 2 props again. How does that equate to favourites? Answer is, it doesn't.
Meanwhile, the bookies have Hull as favourites.

Both sets of fans only seem to remember their last game, so Rovers fans are on top on the world, while many of ours are on suicide watch. I still think you are slight favorites because of your backs, it depends if we can draw you into a forward battle and stop you getting it out wide, we have to really hammer (fairly) you halfbacks early on. If Dixon is FB, really need to test him early, making sure our chase is good, as he is dangerous in broken field.
Biggest disappointment is that you don't seem to have a bad guy previously it has been Newton or Burns and I really thought Bailey would fit that role, maybe come Friday night their will be a new villain.
