in 40 plus years of watching derbies there has never ever been a match either in friendly or leage that has not meant everything to both players and fans so dont be so silly we all know its a bragging rights game and a stepping stone to the first game of SL

| It's a friendly and remains that win or lose, its always nice to beat them lot no matter what the game is but coming through unscathed with a decent hit out under our belts is much more important.

Chris Thorman was NEVER the answer although he did have a good game that night. Him and G Horne were very good that night.

And to be fair to Graeme Horne his form throughout the season earned him a deal with a top 4 club..

Perhaps. Has always had the potential. Struggle to see him get a regular spot personally but perhaps the increased intensity of training at Huddersfield that he speaks of could help bring the best out of him.

I agree he will struggle to get a regular spot. Hudds are not short of utility players either.

| Just don't get all this negativity on here. Come on, Rovers finished 4th in the regular season and are playing the vast majority of the side that got them there tomorrow adding in only top drawer youth. FC finished 12th, have just brought in a load of pension-seekers, have made wholesale changes and have never played a competitive game together, new SH, new centre, new prop, 2 new 2nd rowers effectively. Plus Rovers have the edge by far in derbies. Why are people making out it should be an FC win?

Hull have been preparing since about July , you're at home and your fans, while I wouldn't go so far as to say they are treating it like a 'real' derby, are taking the result a bit more seriously and the players will likely pick up on that.
If I could offer you a (narrow-ish) defeat, but guarantee you no injuries, you'd take that wouldn't you? Not the case for the SL games, I'd bet.

its not negativity, just the fact that its the first friendly thats all, after all the signings youve made and all the shouting about what Hull will do this year i can see why this game means so much to Hull, but for me its just a friendly, hopefully with no injuries too.

of course there will be bragging afterwards, thats sport for you, but its still only a friendly, a chance to try things out, test the youngsters, gauge your fitness levels
after 40 years i would have thought you would have known that
