sorry double post

!!!! PS you know season 10 of tpb has just come Netflix mate

Lovely stuff!

I'm gonna watch the e out of that this weekend.

I think the level of confidence within the team as a whole from the last two games is more important than a couple of personnel selections.
The less senior players have shown they can do the business and so the coach should have a bit more confidence IF he feels a top player could do with a rest.
Radford had his hand forced for the most part with who played Monday, there was no point risking Minichello IMO even if fit and those that were just a rest is a calculated decision based on getting results after Easter.
Basically Warrington was a free hit, not many expected us to win and yet those playing whether due to Injury or based on just wanting fresh legs pulled off a great win.
It couldn't have worked better if you had written the script yourself.
Thus we now have a better than even chance tonight, some rested legs, some back from injury and bouyant mood which is then matched by the fans. Long may it continue.

Let's hope for a good victory . It will be a good result to bring the points back .

Thompson, Hadley, Bowden, Tank

Harsh on Washy but he has been excellent and did virtually 160 minutes over Easter so a well deserved rest!

Washbrook & Green both injured.

6-0 Saints. We are just waiting until they have a 3 score lead then we're in business.

James Child ruins every game he officiates.

Mini off, possibly with his neck injury.

Childs having a mare. C'mon you Hull.

That'll be 6-6, sounds like an element of luck but they all count.

Leeds are behind again. Tee hee.

Nowt to beat here really. Come on Hull.

Great finish by Noggers for his try

16-10. The comeback's on!

Rovers doing well at Leeds. Warrington spanking Wigan.

we sound pretty poor

Still in it but a big ask to win this.

OK, here's a big ask, can we win it? I say yesssss.

Sandow is off though!!!!!

Childs has been awful so far, think it's a 6-2 penalty count but there was also a very dubious knock on decision that resulted in a Saints try and their second conversion IMO wasn't, the stewards were laughing about it. Skinny 5. A close first half, but we look a bit jaded despite some fresher legs. Need to keep disciplined.

Not to far behind though, hopefully we can have our usual good 20 min spell and put some points on the board

Is that a penalty count of 6-2 against us? If so, we may get a few in the second half as ref's invariably level things up to make the penalty stats look fair.

That'll happen when you aren't allowed a fair share of possession.
