your not going to be 2nd because were going to beat you

Hull FC v Huddersfield Giants 8pm

(Ref) S Ganson (TJ) J Roberts (TJ) P Brooke

The week before a CC semi we may send a weaker team. That said we played without 5 regulars versus Catalans and stuffed them.

looking forward to a good game, our last chance for a play off birth, slim as they are, hope to see a good few coming over like last season.

Anyone that writes you lot off this season clearly hasn't seen any RL at all. For me you are the team I would want to avoid in any competition, the form team of the comp and currently performing better than both the teams above you. Would be no surprise to see win the CC final or even at old trafford.

Hull name unchanged 19 for our game on Friday.

[iHull FC: Shaun Berrigan, Mike Burnett, Mark Caldwerwood, Josh Cordoba, Craig Hall, Danny Houghton, Graeme Horne, Richard Horne, Paul King, Tommy Lee, Willie Manu, Sam Moa, Lee Radford, Gareth Raynor, Jordan Tansey, Danny Tickle, Chris Thorman, Richard Whiting, Kirk Yeaman.

If anyone needs a lift to Hull Mark still has places on his bus. Ten pound each. Meeting at the bus station at 5. If you dont have contact details for him and you want to go just let me know and I will let him know for you.

Reading today's examiner, it says Jammer and Mason should be OK for Friday with Lunt and Faiumu in contention for a hooker role.

Not so good news for Fatz and Raleigh who NB hopes are OK for the semi.

Eorl looks like he's being rested for this!

Very strong team, thought he may have ressted a couple of others although if Fatz is OK he, will have had a good break too.

Really looking forward to this game but very nervous that someone may pick up injury and misses CC semi final.

Regarding Eorl,l he has had a stormer of a season like Mason but maybe this rest will do him good.

Couple of spare car places if anyone's interested.

Probably a few fans from other clubs saying or thinking this too

Interesting point and one that slipped by me, that we'd go second if we win tonight albeit if Rhino's win tomorrow it would be for a day.

Which pub we meeting in over there?

In-form Huddersfield Giants will move above Leeds Rhinos into second place if they can secure a sixth successive win at the expense of Hull FC at the KC Stadium.

Victory would complete a perfect build-up to next week's Carnegie Challenge Cup semi-final against St Helens for coach Nathan Brown.

"Our form is definitely improving," said Brown. "The past two weeks have been two of our better games for a while.

"We'd like to improve again against Hull to go into the Challenge Cup in good form. We said we wanted to use the five weeks leading up to the cup as building blocks to that game.

"We've won five games in a row and are definitely getting better. The best way to prepare for the cup is by playing well in the lead up to it."

The Giants' lofty position has generated much excitement at the Galpharm Stadium but Brown is keen to keep things in modest proportion.

"We're third on the ladder and in the semi-finals of the Challenge Cup but we know that to get to where we want to we've got to keep on improving," he said.

"Building on what we've done is the really important thing for us at the moment.

"If we do end up with the second position, then great, but if we don't and we end up in the top four and playing well, we'll feel very happy."

Good luck lads

Usually it's the Brickmakers - I know Giant Daz mentioned there on Facebook.

Safe journey over guys - and a tearful safe journey back too

Tears of Joy as we go into second spot

and guarantee a place in the play-offs to boot !!

you sure about that? We will be 5 points ahead of you then with Wigan breathing down your necks...

Whiting to miss out on tonights contest.

[iHull FC’s Richard Whiting will miss tonight’s clash with the Huddersfield Giants due to illness.

The 24-year-old centre is suffering from diarrhoea and vomiting and is unavailable to play, so youngster Josh Hodgson replaces him in the 19-man squad.
