Agree tonight's result is key, another Warrington win and regardless of what we do its getting more and more unlikely we'd make the Top4.

A win for Rovers would also help the crowd next week and income for the club...can't bring myself to cheer for that lot though!

Tonights results make it harder but the fat lady hasn't sung yet. I would be very disappointed if Hull approached any their upcoming fixtures with a view to not trying their very best to win. If nothing else a weak finish is bad for pass sales.

Very much agree on the last point.At least compared to 2015 we have a few players on the horizon to come back in the coming weeks, hopefully everyone bar Connor and Bowden. Expectations have been raised so important we continue to show the effort that's been put in most weeks this year.

Jim Carey in dumb and dumber
“So you’re saying there’s a chance “
Beat Wakey and Rovers and we have more than a chance
Cas or Wire could slip
Please no more talk of why we cant win
Let’s aggressively fight all fire with fireball and let’s win on Sunday or else I’ll be playing funnel nuts on me own

Shoulder charge is banned so can't see us being able to use a fireball.

Basically its win tomorrow or we face the most pointless derby of the SL era and a very long summer.

Still not a fan of this league format, while there is always teams with nothing to play for in any format, this early split seems to make it seem like the end of the road for for many teams far too early in the season. Under a normal league format we'd still be in the top6/8 and be fancying our Playoff chances when we get players back, while Rovers wouldent be getting a points reset and would still be desperate to win next week to avoid relegation.

Win the next 2, which is feasable, if we play in the same fashion as the Saints game, then we finish on 26 points, only 3 behind Warrington, who I can’t see getting a result at Saints. It’s still on. Warrington are also involved in the CC semifinals so they could well drop points before and after thier game. An added bonus could be they get to the final which will put even more pressure on them, so who knows. Sorry to be so upbeat, I know it’s unusual for an FC diehard on here

If we can hang on to 5th and assuming Wigan defeat Catalans at home next week we'd have Saints, Warrington and Cas away and Wigan at home (other fixtures a bit hard to call). We'd obviously have to beat Warrington so we could do with a bit of luck with the schedule of Super 8 games. Warrington winning the Cup and us playing them the following week would be good.

Not to mention a team that is desined to finish at least 6 points adrift from everyone else, who have been the worst team in the League all season and who should be down after the next round, might yet still survive and not be relegated by the vagaries of the stupid middle eight stuff

Shaul, Sneyd, Westerman and Green all back in the squad!

The Airlie Birds are boosted by the return of Jamie Shaul, Marc Sneyd, Joe Westerman and Chris Green, who come into the 19-man squad but might not all feature.

They replace Mark Minichiello, Hakim Miloudi, Cameron Scott and Jez Litten.

The full and updated 19-man squad can be found below:

1. Jamie Shaul
2. Bureta Faraimo
3. Carlos Tuimavave
5. Fetuli Talanoa
7. Marc Sneyd
8. Scott Taylor
9. Danny Houghton
11. Dean Hadley
15. Chris Green
16. Jordan Abdull
17. Danny Washbrook
20. Brad Fash
23. Mickey Paea
24. Jack Logan
25. Jansin Turgut
27. Jack Downs
29. Masi Matongo
33. Joe Westerman
35. Liam Harris

curiouser and curiouser I just hope we aint rushing anyone back!

If those 4 added to the squad play, then we have a good chance and no excuses

Hopefully Minichiello has just being rested, although unlikely.

Sounds like he is one of the players Radford wanted to drop but was unable to

Judging by the strapping put on his leg at half time last week, I suspect he's not 100%, but I'm sure dropping him suits some.

Its obvious that we are with Sneyd and Westerman
I dont like bringing long term injured players straight back into the first team without a previous game

No it doesn't.



No it isn't.

Not much you do like is there?

I’d go
Shaul
Faraimo
Tumavaive
Logan
Talanoa
Abdul
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Green
Hadley
Turgut
Westerman
Washbrook
Fash
Paea
Matongo
Washbrook to cover the backs if the worst happens again!!!!

Wakey fans crying on their board has given me a good chuckle.
I think we'll struggle tomorrow. Good to have players back, but 3 long term injuries back on once will affect us energy wise at the back end of the game. Wouldn't be surprised if we get the win but also not surprised if we lose. A very 50/50 game

With the mess that we now have over no reserve grade there is really no other option but to put them straight back in. Stupid situation but its the same for all clubs I suppose.

With the Catalan result its getting to be a very much must win for Wakey so they'll be desperate. Going to need a big effort from Hull to see that Radders continues his long winning streak over Chester.

I dont like stupidity and you dont know what i like or dislike.
If you dont have anything meaningful relevant to the subject then dont comment

yes its embarrassing, looks like we need you to send the under 19s for tomorrow

Thank god for a reasonable Wakey fan. Some of the others on your forum are showing themselves up. Are we supposed to leave our better players once they're fit to play just because someone is afraid they'll be beaten. Dear oh dear.
