9 missing ? yes but if all fit only 4 would play the others are squad players

Rubbish. If fit, we would have Wello, Pryce, Flannery, Moore, Clough and Perry playing every week with one of Wheeler/Gaskell/Lomax to partner Pryce (because Eastmond was dropped ages ago - but he's sick with a chest infection and so cannot play either). Makinson was our stand in fullback but he went out with a dead leg against Cas.

At present we have twelve fulltime players missing. Seven of those would feature every week. But our standins are also injured, at halfback and fullback. So at present we have no halfbacks at all and no fullback at all. And we are one prop down.

Welcome to our life 2003-2010.

I see 7 on that list that would play

Diddums

Great post. Not as good as this one though:

At least we got to a respectable number before our team went to kaput as opposed to Rovers injury list of one. Then the whole team goes to !

Hull 24 22 Saints

So far for us it has been 2009 to 2011! We're getting a bit piddled off with it to be honest but so far we have remained competitive. Hull may be one step too far for our patched up team though. We've promoted three youngsters to the squad over the last week, which isn't a good sign! I can imagine we will be bashed to bits by your props and I'm sure Gleeson will happily run over Meli all over again. He loved doing it at the Grand Final, and we Saints fans all know how Meli loves to oblige! (assuming Meli is fit, obviously!)

Need to be patient with this game,let the pack get on top and use the interchanges well....Sts bench is very very inexperienced and when Sts start rotating..i would bring our big hitters on,Manu,Lauaki and Moa...we should have too much firepower for them then.

For me it all depends on which Hull side turn up as we've all seen before Hull are so inconsistent its not funny.
Got a feeling the last 2 games will have take too much out of them. Saints by 10.

18-13 to Hull

We should put 30 plus past this Saints team. However, only Warrington have failed to score more than two tries against us this year so I'll allow Saints three tries.

Hull 30 : Saints 18

Just about half way mark in the season after Mondays game.
If we have top 6 aspirations think it's a really massive must win game. Leeds 5 points in front of us in 6th.

It'll be healthy if we can make it three wins in a row at the KC.

Hull 22 Saints 16.

Hull FC...28...Saints 12

MOM...Yeamo

1st Try...Horney

Attendance....14986

with it been bank holiday and on sky i reckon only 12.5k which again is very dissapointing

Reading some of the above posts I'm starting to wonder why some are so cocky about Monday -are we truly HFC? From the doom merchants of the last couple years now after a couple of very good wins we'vejumped into NRL beaters!
I will be as pleased as anyone if the faithful manage another win, but I still think there will only be a single score between the clubs. Even if Saints are down to the bare bones for selection, this could prove a benefit -afterall the youngsters will want to put a marker down to show their coach that they have ambitions to play in the first team and as we know, youngsters have no fear -they go all out-and play like the games for the winning, so we in turn haveto treat them with respect.
Hoping for another win, and cheering them on for it, but nervous all the same...grannyfan Cindy

I agree about which side turns up.We have had the good ,the bad and the ugly,but I believe the last two results must have been a confidence booster.If not,we have no hope.

I never realised we are on sky, will be around 12k then.

I think you'll have an easy win against the squatters.

Hull 30 - 12 Squatters.

Still trying to remain positive about us chances (which goes against my natural tendencies

).

Will go with FC 20 Sts 14, 1st try Briscoe, mom Obst, att 12,002.

I'm always wary of Saints, no matter what the make up of their side. They have a winning attitude/culture which runs through the entire club. It's the reason why they have remained consistently at the top of the game for more years than any of us can care to remember.

Looking forward to a good competitive game, let's hope we can keep the momentum going.

you mean like they did against the unstoppable wire?

How many Challenges Cups have you won in the last couple of seasons?

how many have they won before you won the last 2

Typical Hull fan. Bragging about the success of another club.

We've won the Challenge Cup in the last 2 seasons. What did you win?

We're a far bigger club than Hull and always have been.
