Come on you Hullaaaaa.......
Joint 2nd and staying clear of Wigan and any other Jonny come latelys

Lose and well......

Given Wigan’s form, the fact that they have just beaten us and their pedigree in the competition, why wouldn’t the Sky pundits say that?

I think the fact that Wells apart they all played for the Pies will have a bearing on their statement.

F##K Wigan - we have our own destiny currently in our hands

Careful there’s a new policy on detrimental posts.

But, after you with them

A few missing (Albert Kelly (rib), Mickey Paea (hamstring), Joe Westerman (illness), Sika Manu (calf), and Andre Savelio (foot)).
....

1. Jamie Shaul, 2. Bureta Faraimo, 3. Carlos Tuimavave, 4. Josh Griffin, 7. Marc Sneyd, 8. Scott Taylor, 9. Danny Houghton, 10. Josh Bowden, 12. Mark Minichiello, 14. Jake Connor, 19. Masi Matongo, 20. Brad Fash, 22. Jordan Lane, 24. Jack Logan, 30. Danny Washbrook, 33. Ratu Naulago, 34. Gareth Ellis, 38. Kieran Buchanan, 39. Tevita Satae

Wakefield Squad:

Chris ANNAKIN, Joe ARUNDEL, James BATCHELOR, Danny BROUGH, Anthony ENGLAND, Morgan ESCARÉ, David FIFITA, Ryan HAMPSHIRE, Ben JONES-BISHOP, Danny KIRMOND, Craig KOPCZAK, Reece LYNE, Jacob MILLER, Pauli PAULI, Tyler RANDELL, Adam TANGATA, Kelepi TANGINOA, Bill TUPOU, Kyle WOOD

Kirmond, Miller, Pauli all named, so guess you just have Arona, Ashurst, Johnstone & Huby (retired) missing, whereas we have Kelly, Manu, Savelio, Paea, Westerman and Talanoa (retired) missing. Very challenging fixture for us.

I thought it was pretty disrespectful to us tbh. We're the ones right behind Wire, Wigan have to win 2 more games than them to go level. At one point they mentioned "the side in third place" so you can see where their loyalties lie.

Still a decent squad. Hopefully Satae gets clearance

I'd assume naming him means he has

They’ve won one from the last 11. Stranger things have happened, admittedly.

I want Hull to win this one. Usually it is mixed feelings in these situations. And I actually have a bit of soft spot for Wakefield Trinity. But i’ll be applauding Hull’s scores this time. One of the prices of where we find ourselves, I suppose.

And I will be rooting for you at Wigan, this season has been extraordinarily unusual

Milers first game back from injury and maybe not play Hampshire/Brough, Kirmond will get injured first tackle, Pauli will just meander aimlessly round the field with little or no contribution, maybe he'll give you the odd penalty for being too slow to get up being third man into the tackle stopping the two genuine tacklers from getting up.

Crikey, bit harsh that. Getting bodies back at the right time, would not like for you to go down.

We were 0 from 13 not so long ago and amazingly picked up when we got players back, like Wakefield are doing now. Hope you put the cleaners through Wigan tonight now London look certs for the drop.

Not so sure on that one Mrs B, London have shown such desire, that end of the table is yet to be decided, unlike the one at the top, a seemingly unstoppable Saints team go on. Is there a twist in the tale this season

More faces than the town hall clock


Cant believe that you are now supporting the Black and Whites.

Hull are rightly favourites for this one.
Trinity have been mickey poor for 2 1/2 months now and although we've made a couple of signings, it will be a modern day miracle if we can turn our form around against FC.
The best that we can hope for is a close score line and have enough to build on to beat KR next week, which will make both FC and Trinity very happy.
Looking forward to the game on Sunday and safe trip over for the Black and White fans coming accross on Sunday.

That he might, but he'll still manage to barge his way over the try line as he always does against us!

Lol thanks Wrencat, think you lads should be targeting the next game, I would leave big Dave out, probably Pauli as well, give Reece a rest, and let BJB and milky have a break, Brougie would be also refreshed after another rest. No point in risking all your stars in this game.

I was just about to say the same thing, its almost guaranteed.

Reserves game re-arranged for Wednesday 14th August (7.30pm) @Mobile Rocket Stadium.

Savelio wont play again this season
Need Satae in that team otherwise weak bench again
Naming both Buchanan and Logan seems strange,unless Griffin starts in the second row and Buchanan at left centre

Buchanan's normal position is back row.

No it isnt

Regarding the drop, it’s ended up not being that dissimilar to the middle 8s after all. Points on the board is huge and London do have fewest. But odd results are bound to happen, especially as teams rest players ahead of the cc final and play-offs.

London play us and Wakefield still. Although, being optimistic, a shock win at Wigan tonight and we might be at the edge of their reach, if Cas do their bit as well.
