Its 5pm local, 4pm uk.

At a team meeting a day or so before the final all the players talked about their motivations for the game. Kearney said that he'd already experienced major successes in his career and that his motivation for the game was to see the younger members of the squad experience such highs.

If Hull FC raise their game.....and they WILL have to..then who knows.

Either way it will not ultimately result in silverware how could it?

A situation that your lot are only too familiar with.

Aye, twenty-seven years since their last major trophy win and thirty-three since their only Challenge Cup win. It must hurt.

Surely Miller would want to be rooming with a player who will be playing, not one who isn't? Or am I looking to much into it?

Very much so, we think our current 6th place is a tremendous achievement, all things considered.

There's even talk that we look likely to finish in the top 8 but we're not going to boast about what we might achieve, what a mugs game that would be.. ha ha ha ha ha..

Hull will win.
As for the Dobbins, I think they are more worried about the result than we are.

You said you were nailed on for sixth last season.

I forgot about that.

An easier run in wasn't it?

Yes, he said something along the lines of five of their last eight games were at home (they lost all of them) whereas we had a majority of away games.

What a mug's game indeed

No excuses today I'm expecting a big performance and a win.

Off out on the p[ii[/iss early doors to get in the groove.

D-DAY.
COME ON THE BOYS!

Head says Catalans, Heart says FC..

Hoping for a good performance no matter what, but Gentle said this is game we've been waiting for.

It's nice to see how the BBC values our sport. On the sports section of my BBC News app, they have stories about women's football, women's rugby and Moto GP, but not a single mention of the Challenge Cup.

The people in charge at the bbc are a set of clowns, I think they come from the same place as the ******* who run the RFL. The licence fee is just another tax that goes on nothing we get a say on. Just look what they have done with football and horseracing, they are cast aside so they can fund a load of **** that no one wants to watch.

McDonnell, Lineham, Crooks, Yeaman, Briscoe, Heremaia, Miller, O'Meley, Houghton, Green, Ellis, Westerman, Galea

Lynch, Watts, Tickle, Whiting

would have been tempted to play Whiting at 6 and defo Tickle in place of Galea.

Think you'll win by 20

You would think tickle would be starting esp with no good kicker in the 13,
Gutted Johnsons isnt playing aswell .

COYH WE CAN DO THIS

No you dont

Getting nervous now...

Not confident at all....another 80 mins of crap dummy half passing,clueless half-back play and certain forwards missing tackles and stealing a wage.

were wearing the magic weekend shirts by the looks of it.
Ive got butterflies like I get before the derbys

Nowt like positivity before a cup QF...

Can't call it. We've been quite poor for a while, but there's little doubt that this game has been targeted above all others. Play well and we've got a shout, but I think the lack of a kicking game might do for us.
