stems from the top! ganson thought he was bigger than the game when a ref, still seems the same way in charge of this useless crop of refs/officials, his ego is too big!

between him and Hetherington the game is going backwards, I have pretty much lost interest. NRL is far superiour, in every aspect.

we even use an inferior ball!

Massive game IMO, we haven't yet shown up against any of the big teams and looked like a top 4 team, we have been close against Wigan, Leeds, Saints and Cas (The best 4 teams IMO), but have failed to beat any of them, Thursday is a chance to show that we show we can play well and beat one of these 4.

Excellent news for washy and masi

Bowden and unlucky for Litten to miss out for me. all depends on whether the likes of Carlos, Manu, Kelly and Mini are fit

For me. Either Bowden or Green doing a stint at 13 to spell the backrow. Lane has done well but clearly doesnt have the impact that Bowden has, even if he hasnt been in fantastic form of late. I would like to see Litten involved again. But at the expense of who? The bench is lacking a forward if he plays ahead of one of the big men. And he isnt going to be replacing Connor.

If they're all fit it's pretty much full strength so no excuses particularly as leeds are missing a few. Wouldn't be surprised if both manu and mini missed out though

Agree expect both those players to miss out this week.

lose this and middle eight, at best, we have shown precious little this season.

Who are Leeds missing?

if all 3 play I would defo start 2 and 1 on the bench, think we can win this, but will be close COYH

from southstander forum (paraphrasing)

Only change to the squad is Ferres coming in for Dwyer.
Leeds without Walker, Keinhorst, Sutcliffe, Garbutt, Peteru, Dwyer

Think Connor as shown he needs to be in the 13 , I'd start griffin in 2nd row like lots have suggested and if that's Radford a plan for him . And start mini on the bench to interchange with griffin . Tala , Carlos , griffin/mini down that left would be a handful for the 80. Manu, Conner, bureto down the right would be useful to, Hadley and manu spelling, keeping the back rowers fresh and making an impact , green, Bowden making up the rest of the bench , boom , jobs a good un

No denying he wont be playing, but its Leeds choice to loan him out,

Its a little like us saying Turget and Bienik (Spelling) are missing

I'd be tempted to mix it up with Green or Masi to start and have Paea to give us a bit of impact from the bench.

Yes i hope Radford has Griffin training again this week for the second row.
Like to see him as a starting second row next season.
Interchanging with Mini if fit would be the way to go and allow Carlos and Connor to play centre.

So by your reckoning we won't make the top 8 if we lose on Thursday, how do you work that out? All you do is be negative about the club!
If we beat Leeds which I predicted we will we'll jump above them and be in a strong 5th with over half the regular rounds still to go. Even if we lose things are nowhere near as cut and dried as you and coffee lady make out re M8s

y a w n

I'm not sure it would work griffin in the 2nd row, but I do want to at least see it, griffin, Carlos Connor in the 13 excites me and think it would give us big threat a right across the park and also keeps our 2nd row interchanges fresh and able to have impact

as you say, worth a try, we need to change things a bit.

Very tough game and wouldn’t be surprised if we lost
A win would be great and has us believing a Top 4 is on
A loss would hurt a lot
Come on you Hull !!!!!!!
