There has been a lot of talk about how often our pack has been dominated this year and that this is a large part of the ongoing problems. However we have had a lot of field possession at times in the opposition half and yet the attack has still faltered more often than not. I think our attack is the largest area in need of improvement in the off season. Think we have too many attacking players injured to win tonight. I like PG but he hasn’t shown any signs of our attack improving since he’s been in charge and that to me means he must go when we get knocked out tonight.

Leaving the door open for Radford I'm being told. Well that's my pass money put towards next years Holiday.

Are you going tonight, Dobbo?

He's off round Asda with the missus.

We only go to Huddersfield if saints beat rovers and there's no guarantee on that

Spoken like like the true dobbins supporter you are. I much prefer those red & whites who share this exact same sentiment but are honest about who they support.

I think home advantage really does apply to this game. The Cats are not the best travellers. However, if Dureau is on the top of his game and Holdsworth isn't then I can see the French winning but only just.

For me, this is a complete 50/50 game. The Cats don't travel well but we don't have a pack, and as we've said all year, no attack. I'm not really looking forward to the game, but I'll be there and hopefully singing them to a win. Us by 6-10.

Our game is the main article on the back page of The Racing Post! Catalans are fancied, especially with the 4 point start.

i think most Rovers fans dont care who your coach is, and the ones that do maybe think Gentle should stay. Anyway im no doubt a part of a very small minority of Rovers supporters who will be hoping you do well tonite, good luck against those frogs

If I was a Rovers fan id want Gentle to stay so Hull FC would remain cack you titend

Come on you UUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAA

No Scott dureau for Catalan. Big boost!

Great news . And P.Johnson starting , come on PJ prove the doubters wrong COYH

Is jay Pitts injured or dropped he did have a shocking game @ Wigan if I'm honest.

Really? So wanting Hull to lose, not going as usual, and only emerging from your sewer when Hull lose, makes you a fan of who?

well away from the coaches future and back to the actual game, its chucking it down and (for the out of towners) it has been raining pretty constantly from mid afternoon. we are playing with that ball that nobody seems to be able to handle in the wet, least of all us so let's hope we have learnt a few lessons from wembley. need to kick well, and i would have houghton kicking a few down the field as well as holdsworth tonight. complete our sets and take our chances and we can win this. also i would be in favour of taking all points on offer tonight ie. taking the two if we get kickable penalties

forgot to add, rain forecast throughout the game

Looks like a poor gate.

Not going well so far. Only two mistakes in the game and both by us deep in our own half. Terrific defence but too much of it.

Need to force an error here.

Too slow.

Crookes tackled in the air but Thaler too dim to spot it.

No offload game all season and NOW we decide to try them?

Back to basics my .
