Can't wait for this one.

Everything to play for and there'll be fire and brimstone to boot.

Is this our GF ? Will it be Mad Monday after the game ?

Rovers by a country mile. With our SL status already secure, umpteen players missing and 2 more gone in a confidence-killing shellacking yesterday, Rovers "bouncing" with fewer injuries and keen to end a winless Derby run going back to Easter 2015 and 2 day turnaround advantage, this has only one outcome. Their first win in 8 derbies, champagne time for the wizard.

Can see us resting players to go along with the 8 first teamers we had missing against Warrington we’ll have to wait until next season for that elusive win

No need to rest anyone with a fortnight before the start of your next middle eights campaign.

I said after the Wigan loss that the season would most likely fizzle out with many pointless fixtures
Whilst hiding behind the injury excuses
Show me the coach and I’ll show you the team
Defence is always the Mark of a team and it was always Radfords best feature
Not anymore and not for a long time
We are not consistent enough to win a GF
Last one was 1991
I love the CC so I will always remember LR fondly
The Derby should be our last win of 2018
We are the weakest team of the top 8 by a country mile

Not sure what is funnier.
A. You believe Hull have been hiding behind the injuries
B. You believe that Hull won a Grand Final in 1991
C. The derby will be our last victory this season.

Now live on SKY. Which kills off any hope of more tickets being sold, good job the club were quick off the mark last month with the promo and have got 15k sold already

We need a massive reaction after yesterday.
Get at Rovers early, and with their minds on survival ,they won’t want to know.
Rovers fans I have spoken to ,want Sheens to rest players and concentrate on the Middle 8’s. The stupid format the sport is in makes it a dead rubber .
We can then move on and play our 7 friendlies to see the season out .

i agree with this - rovers won't want a couple of injuries (or more) to key players going into what is a new mini league table - the derby game means nothing to them except for the usual bragging rights. given what happened to them last time they were in the middle 8s as a superleague club they have every right to be cautious, even though i think they'll be absolutely fine.

tbf even the rovers reserves will have a good shot at us if we play anything like we did on sunday

Wonder whether Rovers will appeal disciplinary bans for Mcguire, Masoe and Greenwood.

I'd be very surprised if rovers don't rest players, the bottom 4 positions are already decided, so the result is totally irrelevant.

3 players already banned and playing a side which is pretty much wrecked, they'll make a game of it whoever plays.

You've no choice about the highlighted 2 lol

That's a bonus if Sheens was thinking it. Might not have a choice with Lunt either he went off with concussion and looked like bambi on ice when he did so prob wouldn't be cleared

rovers by 10 then

Trouble at mill between AP and Radders has been doing the rounds today.
Let's hope for a Derby victory to put a smile back on our faces this week.

Doesn’t really surprise me, the rumours I mean. AP doesn’t knee jerk but probably as disgusted as everyone. It is his dosh after all.

after a big defeat always rumours kicking about, imo think what radders has done for hull the last few years has earned him a lot of brownie points,

Well AP was seen giving Radford a bollocking after the Catalans away game so wouldn't surprise me if he got another one yesterday

And he has every right to with all the cash and time he’s invested, we’ve come too far to slip back to bad old ways. Injuries havent helped our season everyone can see that, but we have lost the aggression and teamwork of the 2016 team and need to get that back.

Hopefully AP will give Radders some money to sign a player or two, maybe look to release a couple of loan them out

It could be true.
I posted after the Huddersfield defeat that Pearson was far from happy,and it came from a very creditable source.

Here she goes again.

Fake News!

Don't you have a sense of humour??
