I feel giants wull edge it due to you coming off a tough derby game and a lot of injuries. The score made it look an easy game but im sure the players are feeling it. Giants by 10

Could go either way this one. Can't see how anyone could say Hull aren't a genuine threat & keep a straight face. Those lads are 2nd in the table & haven't got there by accident. Should be a good game this.

Agree,I would have said last season a nailed on win for Hudds.This season Gentle seems to have installed a bit of steel into the team.Hope it is at least a close fought contest.

Can't see the patched up Hull team having enough left in the tank to beat a Hudds team with plenty of options coming off an "easier" game, but a win at hudds is far more likely than the win we got at wire on Easter Monday last year

Who is out for the black & whites for this fixture then?

Horne
O'Meley
Moa
Martin
O'Carrol
Green
Westerman

Heremia?

Not playing in our 17 may be:

O'Donnell
Lunt
Walker
Gilmour
Fairbanks
Ferguson

Murphy / Eden
Faiumu

That first 6 is an impressive starting pack.

weather forecast for a lot of rain on monday, wonder who a wet game will suit more? possibly hudds with the bigger forwards seeing as we have 3 front line props out. lets hope the crowd gets over the 10k mark for this one

yes heremia is out for most of the season with a neck problem, thats 8 out for hull, 7 of which would be in the first choice 17 if everyone was fit

Why does everyone think we have a big pack? We have eorl and mason- who are big front rowers. We've had a hooker/loose playing prop, a centre playing prop and various second row playing prop. The one area the giants fans were concerned about at the start of the season was front row but opposition fans keep going on about us having big forwards- we have a scrum half playing loose and a winger playing second row! It's worked for us in terms if agility but still everyone keeps going on about our big pack -I only hope opposition coaches are making the same mistake!

Its the team that plays which is the side,not the one which doesn't!

lets hope with hull bringin a good number and probably vocal that we try and raise ourselves and get behind the boys, friday was shocking it was like a pre season cricket game, as they say on the various PA systems at grounds, make some noise for the boys!

Our P.A system is STILL pants though , we could not make out what RhP was waffling on about when he came on at half time .

It wasn't at our side!

you guys start us off then we'll follow then

agree, we were in the past....seems opposing fans still think this way

for example crabtree isnt an impact player off the bench anymore and he has shed weight and plays more mins now

bookies say giants by 6

yep our huge pack with that huge man mountain - Lee Gilmour, the equally massive Luke Robinson and Shaun Lunt and those other big guys Dale Ferguson, David Faiumu.........our pack is more lightweight and mobile than its ever been but yet people still think its massive !!

I think its because we did in the past and dont forget we were a dirty wrestling side so obviously needed big guys to perform these acts !!

Thing is our pack must be one of the lightest packs we've ever had ....

looking forward to it large following coming over from hull should be around 3k, would like to win this one but feel friday will leave us running on empty but who cares, at least were going forward under our new regime

we do have big forwards LOD isnt small neither is fa'alogo. chan, mason crabtree are all our big guys i wouldnt say ferguson is that small for a second rower either. at times this season its been small due to injurys but when everyone is back fit it will be a big strong mobile pack. which brough and grix will love playing off the back of

just beat them theyre carrying on like theyve won the grand final and WCC already and knock them out the cup aswell just to bring them back down to earth

hull unchanged from fridays game v hull kr, question mark over horne

they may tire in the last 20mins

hoping for 10k crowd but prob looking at 9ish

not a bad crowd for the salford game 6900

Still smarting mate?
I think we all know it isn`t going to be a cakewalk against Hudds.As long as we give it a go.
