Oh, now I really am concerned then if you are

Ill be a lot more concerned if its the same by Boxing Day.

If Rohan does decide he's had enough after he's slept on this whole debacle, we are absolutely in at least as big a hole as after the Bulls cup match.

You don’t seriously think Smith is just going to wake up and bugger off ?

I probably dont really, though the way he seemed to have to navigate his way around the press conference to protect GH and not concede that it's an absolute mess, he may well decide the vision he had is not being matched by GH, the way he's handled this and possible lack of support on getting players in. Who could blame him if he feels undermined and it's left a bitter taste.

Back to topic - this must be a winnable game given the proximity to the CC final. I think both sides should be playing on the same day - why do Hull KR get two days extra prep?

Interesting to see who lines up given the movements recently. Maybe this is Gannon's big chance to be the heaviest half back is history - yet another RS crackpot idea.

Hopefully this can the start of a positive end to the season and we can cement 8th place at least.

Gannon is still injured.

Win this and other results go our way we could be 2 points of 6, 4 points of 4th. We have a better points difference than the 3 clubs above us.

I know some have written this year off but I would hope the club and players haven't.

Yeah I'd hope they haven't either but with the disruption off the field, 2 of our best performers in key positions out injured/gone and our current form, let's be real, this season is cooked.

Lose on Sunday and I agree with you. It will be interesting to see what kind of performance they put in.

Leigh did not turn up against Wigan last week so hardly going to do 6 days before the cup final.
Plus if they rest key players we have no excuse to lose this one.

Of course the club have written the season off , they have just shipped one of our best players out

From the Squad that’s been released id go

Hooley
Roberts
Macdonald
Martin
Handley
Sinfield
Sezer
Oledski
OConner
Holroyd
Bentley
McDonnell
Smith

Johnson
Lisone
Walters
Sangare

21 looks rather sp now doesn't it. Your 17 is about as good as can be expected christopher.

Though with our current plight I'd say a character like Donaldson would be good for the cause which could see Sinfield left out and Smith in the halves..

I get the feeling from Smiths interview that Hooley may be left out again.

My prediction

Handley
Roberts
Macdonald
Martin
Olpherts
Smith
Sezer
Oledzki
O'connor
Walters
Donaldson
Mcdonnell
Bentley

Johnson
Sangare
Lisone
Holroyd

I don't think Hooley will pay either TBH, I think he will get an opportunity after the cup final , although RS was adamant that the Rhinos came first with regard to him playing.

I think we'll see Handley at FB and unfortunately Olpherts on the wing.

I don't care TBH as long as we win

Leigh squad looks strong though they don't have the biggest so remains to be seen if the likes of ipape and lam will play, I'd guess they will.

You are right.

Have Leigh rested anyone Cokey?

Looking at the 21 man squad, No.

Look forward to it. No really.

Its come to something when we “Fear” Leigh and hoping they rest players.

We are so unpredictable though we might just smash 40-50 past them

KR resting players tonight, it'll be interesting if leigh go the other way.

It's against Lammy's philosophy to do what Kr are doing. Lammy quotes that the position on the ladder is also important, and we shouldn't get drawn away from that.

Id agree with him, you need some momentum too going into a final and while kr are currently getting pumped the same won't be true of Leighs preparation.

Spot on Seth.
