No Griffin tonight - not sure if Wynne or McNamara have been drafted in (if allowed). If not, then perhaps Carlos to full back, or Jake.

I’d play McNamara and Connor to full back

....it is allowed, no penalties for changing the squad at short notice anymore.

Connor is at 1

Didn’t you used to lose an interchange place.?

Yes, but they changed the ruling after lockdown.

Suppose if Covid related, they may now relax late changes, but not sure.

Quote Finally, and in recognition of the impact of the current suspension of the season meaning there are likely to be some midweek fixtures, at least at Betfred Super League level, the newly-introduced rule punishing teams for making late changes to their 21-player matchday squads by the removal of an interchange will be suspended for the remainder of the 2020 season.'" https://www.rugby-league.com/article/56 ... mendations

Least of the sports troubles at the moment, a last minute squad change.

Wanted to see Connor at full back anyway, but will miss Griffin.

If today's game had been the last derby of the season as the original fixture list had intended, we could have expected as many as 12,000 "walkups" at the KCOM, now a massive revenue loss, and revenue AP would have budgeted for.

It's Rovers' home game.

That game would have been the last derby of the season and would have been a home game. https://www.hullfc.com/news/2019-11-05- ... s-revealed

Griffin has tested positive

Awful news.

Really bad news for Griffin, I wonder if anyone else will be forced to withdraw?

Just him I think , been in good form as well .

The weather in Lancashire has been awful all day. Slippery wet conditions will be a leveller. I hope we win well, but anything could happen especially as its Rovers cup final.

Connor, Faraimo, Fonua, Tuimavave, Naulago, McNamara, Sneyd, Taylor, Johnstone, Bowden, Ma'u, Savelio, Cator

Houghton, Satae, Sao, Fash

Reckon the wet conditions suit us a lot more than Rovers. Bigger pack & limits the way they like to throw it about a little bit

I’ll start the commentary...
“Too many dropped balls”
“We should be playing to the conditions “
“Rovers up for this”

Rovers will be up for this one. We just need to play to the conditions.

Rovers normally score first moving the ball wide at pace to Ben Crooks.
Other than that we should be putting 40 points on that team
Little enthusiasm and interest on both sides of the river for this game

For all those who have endlessly trotted out guff that the interim coach doesn't want the job, he's just stated that he does.

play like we did against Cas and it will be an easy win

its all about consistency

Get in, great try, so underrated farimo
