Big game this, but one I'm confident of winning to maintain our 100% record. Whether or not the week off will have been a help or a hindrance remains to be seen.

All match discussion here please!

Think they will struggle without Dobson as was evident last weekend. Saying that, they are a big side and have plenty of other match winners in the team. Will need a similar level of performance to the the Hudds game and we should come through, a tight affair that we will edge:- 25-16.

If we can perform like we did against Huddersfield and with them having Dobson and Webster out I'm more confident about us winning. I originally predicted us to win nearly all of our opening 10 games and this and Huddersfield were the only dodgy ones

4 point defeat at home last year and a 2 point defeat away. I can see it being close again.

I'm intrigued to see Terry's selection as with Snitch, Hudson & Fozzard all available, will he be tempted to change what was an excellent performance from 1-17 against the Giants?

Craig Huby still sits 2 points short of 400 for Cas and Rangi Chase is 5 off 100 while Kirk Dixon needs 10 to reach 550.

I think the forwards battle will be key again, which is probably a good enough reason for making use of Fozzard's availability. Who gets dropped to make way for him though is a tough choice. We'll be needing big games from Huby and Holmes again in order to give Chase and Orr room to work their magic.

I suspect we may see Snitch for Aspinwall and Hudson for Clark. Maybe both starting on the bench so Holmes and Milner retain their starting spots.

Tight match, edge, thriller … etc: oh, and no dubious video ref decision in the final minutes

A close one yes, home advantage to prove vital for you guys.

Dobson was missed but you wouldn't have thought it with some of the tries we scored. It was more our defence and concentration that cost us which Morgan will be very angry about. The biggest thing we missed without Dobson is the direction and kicking game, most of our kicks landed in the arms of a winger or full back so if you pin us in our own half then we'll struggle to get out and more than likely you'll start your sets on your own 40.

Near the line is where Murrell and Green are good at kicking, keep us out of your 20 and we'll struggle to put in an attacking kick all game.

Like I say a close game again but Cas by 9.

Hudson is likely to be missing again according to other forum.

I'd have Fozzard in (if fit) and Snitch in but that's about it.

Bench: Fozzard, Walker, Widders, Clark.

Fozzard has to be one of the most over rated props in the game, his spell with us was less than satisfying and his nickname 'handbreak' really suited him as he just stops before hitting the line. Had one good game for us where he ran the ball like a prop should but after that he just went back into his old style again!

Saying this however, our star forwards in Vella and Clinton have hardly been performing early part of this season and we could really do with a bit of beef up front. Good possibility if Mason arrives soon he'll have to go up front instead of back row to kick start our packs season!!

I am more worried about this one that I was against Huddersfield to be honest.
We have a belief bubble going on now and historically when we get to this nearly stage when we have a chance to underline our credentials, we seem to pop our own bubble - plus with the week off, that feels more likely.

I am not bothered if we win or lose so much as we protect the belief we have collected up to now and, to a man everyone believes we are good enough to win, we play OUR OWN game well - then whether we win or lose, the performance will be good.

It sounds like a crap cliche, but it really is all about us and if we believe enough to play our own game well - if we do that 9 times out of 10 the result follows and even if it doesn't, we protect our bubble for next week.

I rather agree with Fully's selection, but I think Isa is in with a sniff this week.... depending how training is going.

With Dobson and Webster out I think it'll be a win for you guys.



Should be a great day though, and I reckon we'll bring somewhere in the region of 100,000.

Per stand?

Best make beer £10 a pint then.

We'll have our new stadium before Christmas.

Always an entertaining game against H K R, I think we have the mentality now to win games, Danny Orr very instrumental to Cas, he is leading the players around the field, this is something we havent had for many years. I tip Cas to win by 10 points.

Fozzard & Hudson in the 19 but Daryl Clark also retained so maybe still doubts over Ryan.
No recall for Steve Snitch following his ban.
Willie Isa misses out on the 19 altogether.

Good to see TM sticking with those guys that did the business in round 2.

Dobson missing is a massive loss for them,having said that we seem to play better when we are underdogs.

So i'll go Cas by 10 or Hull K.R by 4.

Big Willie arrives Tuesday for Rovers, don't know whether thats good or bad for us seen as it would have been a bumper crowd had it been a week earlier.
Cas by 8
att 7,300

I reckon you will still get a bumper crowd KR fans might think mason will turn up he may do or may not but its worth turning up incase he is there

Attendance? 7,300? Against KR? On a Sunday? IIRC we got 8,800 and it was on Sky last season?

6,855

Fairy snuff. Still think it'll be nearer 9000 than 7000.

What's the capacity?
