If it wasn't for the fact I cant seem to bet against my own team I would be lumping on a Rovers win. Thats not to say I think Rovers are a better team but look at the circumstances and the fact we are missing probably our 3 biggest earners for the game and I can only see one winner.

Comfortable win for Rovers, something like 10-28.

This weather is going to be a massive leveller. It's forecast to lash it down during the game!

The winner will be whoever does the least mistakes.

Leveller





Nothing between the two sides anyway, no levelling required.

The winner will be the team with a decent half back and a coach that can change the tactics to suit the conditions.

congratulations on your 2 points.

In form there is mate. After last weekends results and performances, and I know its the derby and all that, we should blow you away but this weather could be the deciding factor.

Blow us away, based on one win. I don't really get that tbh. Form is judged over a dozen games or so I would say not one. We have both had good wins and bad losses during that time and I would say we were about even. You might have slightly more confidence after beating Leeds.

I have to agree Paul, both sides are capable of winning if they play to their potential, the big issue is the ability to motivate the team, as said on another thread, we've scored 8 points in 4 second halves, that is poor form (even if you win the games), I fear for us tonight, we could be in for a humiliation on Sky (and I don't expect we'll be a delight to watch next week), there is no avoiding our injuries, and Horne's incredibly poor form all season, add that to Berrigan being totally inept and the loss of Ogre, Fitz and Long and I just cannot see a win, but I also can't see KR "blowing us away", unless Dobson has one of his nights, but the conditions seem to rule that out.

Going by mates of mine who are Hull fans they have not seen anything special over the past few weeks that would suggest you will win tonight whereas they have been very impressed with our performances (tv highlights only). Ok you've had 2 wins out of the last 3 but you have to look at the opposition you played.

As for confidence, I would think it would be a lot more than 'slighty'.

I apologise if I've disrupted the thread, prediction is...

22.....12 Hull FC.

14 - 12 not sure who to yet , proberly make my mind up when I see both teams .

Not far off

Looks like 'over' may have been more appropriate.

Correct!

Close

miles out

Weather was perfect and no blowing away going on

I was praying for rain to level it

Miles away!

My prediction is Newton is a big windy get.

That is not a prediction that is a fact

Horne was excellent if not our best player before he was injured.

I won't argue with the rest of your pre-match assessment (it's pretty much how I saw it) - I'll see how Berrigan finishes the season before I jump to his defence.
