I'm sure that Hull can win tonight, not by much because it will be close with very little between the two teams. Wigan will be hurting from last weeks defeat at Bratfud and that could work against us or it may have knocked the confidence. However the return of Sean Long will make a difference in our attack. Fitz will lead by example as always, Horney is playing with new found confidence and I reckon Hull to win by 8 points.

Just a quick Stat for my fellow geeks. We've only won at Wigan twice in the Super League era.

There is a few draws in there though although your record is terrible really, like ours at the halliwell jones

Think its just the one draw at Wigan? 2 wins and 1 draw in 15 games I think it is.

Never go to Wigan expecting a win you usually come away dissapointed. Go expecting to lose albeit closely and if we get the win its a massive bonus

I think it'll be a cracker tonight, and who's defence is better shall decide the game.

I like the look of Hull this year, but I think at the moment we're a little bit better (bias but what the hell!). Last week we cruised at Bradford before switching completely off at half time. I'm sure we wont make the same mistake this week - watch out for the early Wigan try and more importantly - Amos Roberts.

We're still missing George Carmont as far as I'm aware with his knee injury from Bradford so expect a weakness on our left side.

Can't wait, should be a cracker!

Good to get the monkey off our back then



Come on u ullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllla

may well be a down the middle match which will suit us as its pishin down here at present in pie land

According to the Wigan board Feka isn't playing tonight so our chances are improving.

anyone post actual odds please, I cant get onto betting sites at mo.....

Stan James -
20:00 Wigan Warriors vs Hull Fc Home 10/11 -8 Draw 16/1 -8 Away 10/11 +8

Thats good news too, he always has a gud un against us !!, their forwards will have their hands full with or without Feka , cant wait for tonight !!
Coley vs Omeley
Fielden Vs Radford
Ologhlin Vs Fitz

match ups all over the shop

Deffo going to be a middle match which will suit our forwards , this rain is getting heavier by the minute here , glad its not a dry one to be fair i think our backs would have suffered a bit with Wigans speed

An 8 point start is tempting.....

You coming up for this one mate or stuck in the smoke ???

Out of all the fans in superleague I think theres only really the Hull fans that give Feka massive respect. He's had some blinders against Hull FC and that must be the reason but alot of other teams fans take the micky out of him a little.

I honestly think him being out of the side this week increases our chances a touch. It's obvious the new coach doesn't trust him and at Bradford and Warrington we've basically had to play with 16 men because he's very reluctant to use him.

I think Feka will come back better then ever at some point this season but I still think the new coaching staff are trying to iron out some flaws on the training pitch.

Not to sure on that, Feka hasn't been the same player since loosing two stone in weight. It seems he has put all his effort in to loosing the weight and his strength and power training have suffered. I would be more concerned if he was playing, he isn't offering us anything going forward and has only played 5 minutes in two of the games he has been selected for this season.

Which is why were glad he isn't playing

Hull +8 Evens with Corals.

Logical I suppose

Glad Feka is not playing, always a handful and needs to be used right to get the mximum out of him.

It's working out what is the right way thats proving to be the problem.

When he was huge he couldn't defend but caused all sorts of problems in attack but he's now slimmed down yet seems to have lost power and still looks sluggish in defence(although it has improved a touch).

I get the feeling they're really flogging him in training both in fitness and power terms in the hope that later on in the season he'll be able to play longer more energised spells. I think they're trying to do what Saints did with Paul Anderson a few years back after his move from Bradford.

Where's the "raining" coming from? It's dry as a bone (although cloudy) in Wigan at the moment.
