Never missed a final though I think you said so see you in the KC ticket queue on the off chance that we win.

You could always go down and support West Hull ARLFC.
Pretty pointless you even coming on here as you clearly don't 'support' Hull anymore.

And the rest of us have read enough garbage from you to be grateful that you won't be showing your face.

| Quote ="The Hollywood Frasier"The main thing on Sunday is trying to control Warrington's offload as all their good work comes off the back of a offload which inevitably leads to a quick PTB the next play and the last thing we want is Higham, Monaghan and Ratchford getting at a defensive line which isn't set.
Our kicking game should simply be kick it dead every single time IMO to hopefully make the game painfully slow and make them need to go 80 metres to score.'"
Extracted from Brian Smith's website :
Substituted QLD for Warrington.
Put pressure on the Warrington tryline on any sets there by putting on back to back to back plays with real positive questions and multiple options NOT negative hold the ball attitude for attempted repeat sets.
Warrington eat this up and any time spent there without success becomes a negative for Hull FC and a positive to Warrington for their defensive resilience.
Smash this mindset and you are well on your way to the thing you want most – Warrington rattled!
There is no problem handing the ball over on their line if you have stretched them repeatedly with controlled and powerful questions. Those bombs to wingers need to be just short of the Line also for optimal and multiple good outcomes for Hull FC.
You don’t have to smash the brick wall down if you can find the window. Set plays are over-rated.

Regarding the goalposts, didn't a bunch of idiots do that. None were wearing Rugby shirts and was rumoured to be football hooligans.

| Looking forward to another semi final. Not expecting a win but then I wasn't in 2005 and Saints that year were far better than Warrington are now.
Just hoping for a decent performance and a bit of luck and who knows.

I advocate lots of dummy half running to play at a pace (Warrington pack big n old) plus we can't hold the ball in the dry never mind the wet lately.'"
We're actually more effective in the wet, we know teams are not going to be expansive so it becomes a forwards game, we just play the Aussie pressure game in the wet, keep them pinned in their own half, hope for a mistake and capitalise on it.

| I think we can win. We'll need to kick really well and defend with good line speed and discipline. The one way Wire hurt you is when they play off penalites in your half. Restrict the easy yards and they get frustrated and start pushing the offloads. This has happened the last two times we have won at Wire.
That said I think the big match experience will be too much for us and our lack of discipline will cost us.

| The last half dozen games I expected a win for Hull IF we turned up and played like we all know we can. Unfortunately we didn't, a lot is made of the halfback issue but for me it starts with the forwards and ours need to raise their game.
I expect the same on Sunday, play like we did against them a few weeks ago and we have every chance of a win. And PG should be safe in his job for a good while longer.
Play like that and lose I also think PG will be safe.
However, if we play like a bunch of amateurs that have never met before then PG may be shown the door at the end of the year, especially if we miss out on the play offs.
But, until then, I will be behind the team and will be at Huddersfield giving my full support.

| I think we'll get a superhuman effort in defence, but our poor application in attack will rear its ugly head yet again.
The 3rd worst attack vs 2nd best defence in SL - points to a Warrington win.
Who knows???

I am just praying we can find our attack on Sunday, we have found it once or twice this season and when we have we have looked very good. Find it again with the forwards playing there part and we have a chance.

Last time Gentle mentioned he wanted attack the players thought he wanted to pin a notice to the board.

My thoughts as well.
Think we'll give it a go but there are too many worries about our attack. I don't think there will be a problem with effort but that will not be enough at this level.
Heart says a repeat of 2005, head says a gallant defeat by 10 (26-16).

| I've literally no idea how we'll play on Sunday. All I'm going for is a decent day out, catching up with old mates, having a number of alcohols and probably ending up regretting ordering the hottest thing on the curry-houses menu on Monday morning.
If we win, then we get to repeat it in four weeks time in London, if we lose, hey its not the end of the world, least we still have a club to support.
Getting the 10.58 train over, where's everyone heading for the pre-match sherbets?

I just can't see us all of a sudden finding an attacking flair against a quality defence. Therefore our defence has to be top drawer. If we keep Warrington to 10 or 12 we could win. 20 or more and it will be too much for us.....
