Must have missed what Brown did then as don't remember seeing any late hit?

Hopefully Sao will be back so he replaces Brown, I'd also replace Scott on the bench with Johnstone to spell Houghton or possibly rest him altogether after 90mins and 86 tackles.

Jack Brown (Hull FC) – Grade B Other Contrary Behaviour – 1 Match Penalty Notice

Yes though in the match review panels minutes it says 'late hit in the 89th minute' but don't recall seeing anything in the game?

what does that mean in English

And Miller, we should be winning this one and winning well. Which is where it usually all goes wrong.

Yeah, thought that when I read it. It covers a multitude of sins and some others they can’t think of.

No ice baths no swimming allowed in rehab after the longest and toughest of games possible, a 5 day turn around and a small squad with a few injuries thrown in against a desperate team under threat, an ex fc assistant coach who has a point to prove and and a coach whose job is on the line. Anyone who doesn't think this is a big ask is deluding themselves. This will be a real challenge for everyone I think.

Come on Wakefield have looked terrible, they play for 40 minutes then look knackered. Make mistakes galore and even sillier last tackle plays than we did at weekend.

Hardly the mentality Hodgson wants to Instill if we're making a big deal out of Wakefield. Can't see there being many upsets this year, as super leagues very predictable at the moment.

Comfortable win for FC.

26-6

I think they need to make a big deal out of every game. Turning up complacent will just lead to the sort of result that has been our big problem in recent years.
Respect them like any other opposition.

All those points taken, If you think this is going to be a challenge for Hull you are sadly mistaken, we have no idea with the ball (we have scored 3 tries in the last 3 games and we were lucky to get them) now the player that created our only chances is out injured. Slightest sign of pressure on our defence and we fold in two. We look like a group of blokes thrown together, I genuinely think we are the poorest team in the league right now, should be a walk over win for Hull in my opinion.

Dont understand why limited number swimming is not allowed.
Has to be one of the most sterile areas you could have

That's a strange one as you are now allowed to swim at the gym with limited occupancy. Hot tubs are open but the sauna and stream room, understandably, are closed.

BH has just confirmed in his press conference that Ligi Sao should be back this week, good news.

At the end of the sentence, I thought he was talking about FC for half a second....LOL

Squad is out.
Same again except Sao in for Brown.
I'd probably go with 2 changes, Sao replacing Brown obviously and Johnstone in for Scott on the bench.

I'd agree with that. I don't think we should be asking Houghton to do 80 minutes again 5 days after that mammoth effort.

Connor
Faraimo
Tuimavave
Griffin
Swift
McNamara
Sneyd
Sao
Houghton
Satae
Lane
Savelio
Cator

Taylor
Bowden
Fash
Johnstone

I think the team more or less picks itself. Just a case of who starts.

Think we may see Fonua back either on the bench or starting if we make a change at half back

Definatley Johnstone on the bench, I personally think he offers a better pass selection from the play the ball, something that we didn't get right at times against Warrington. Would be a handy tool to have to bring on. Also to spell Houghtons huge defensive efforts. I think we l be on the front foot vs wakey so game probably suit Johnstone more

Wakefield have always been a bogie side for us regardless of their league positions in the past , I'm expecting another tough game again .

Wakefield are a strange one I can't get my head around

Their team isn't much different to 2017/2018 teams that were dark horses for the GF and put 70 on us and Wigan

Yet last year or so have struggled big time

Team news

Connor, Faraimo, Tuimavave, Griffin, Swift, McNamara, Sneyd, Taylor, Houghton, Sao, Savelio, Lane, Cator

Bowden, Fash, Johnstone, Satae

Feel really sorry for Mahe - unless its a fitness issue then he should be in ahead of Faraimo every time

Not on current form

Faraimo had one good half against a first division side and did nothing against Warrington
