Wont you be fielding a weakend team to concentrate on the league

will go for us because of home advantage, probably no more than 10 points in it.

rovers 40 vs 36 wire

along as we beat u , i wudnt care who we had out

Rovers will be favourites because of league position and home, and I would prefer to go into a game as underdogs.

But both teams can play very well on their day, and we have a few players back since we last met, so I'm hoping for a wire win.

Gonna be a cracker.

I fancy Rovers mainly because of their desire to get to Wembley and win the cup.

Vella should be back for us as well and that will be a massive lift for us.

Having played KR & Wire in last two games, KR are by far the better team.
Wire beat Wigan with 8 as did KR.
The KR game was one of the most brutal matches I've seen in a very long time. That was one reason perhaps why Wigan were off the pace v Wire and by all accounts KR a lot slower v Cas. Games like that take their toll on players.
Wire had an 8-1 pen count advantage in the 2nd half and despite that could only manage two tries. With that amount of possession and field position KR would have put 30+ past Wigan.
KR are 2nd in the table and Wire 10th. That is the difference between the teams.
IMO KR will win it in the halves. Dobson & Cook are in a lot better form than Briers or Monaghan. KR can switch Cook to the pack and Galea to 6 with Murrell an option to move position. Wire don't have those options.
To me it's a home banker. KR 32 Wire 12.

I would have thought that same desire is amongst our players too so on that basis a wire win is my fancy although I still have to buy my binoculars to be able to see this unfold from the Grimsby(south) stand

Give us the £15, bring what you like.

Not really. Part of our success so far this season is the teams willingness to work for each other, we have had a lot of games where they have no way near played to their potential, yet ground out a win, due to them not wanting to let each other down.

Although TS is improving you, I have still not seen the same togetherness in your side by a country mile. Not saying it won't come now you have a coach who has some balls, but it ain't there yet (not when I have seen Wire play anyway)

It's going to be a tasty one and one I would not like to predict, but one thing I do know, is Wire are going to have to put up one HELL of a fight to progress into the next round.

P.s KR by 6

tbh i think our team has shown a real togetherness in the past few weeks and have improved amazingy in defense (apart from murrayfield

) I seriously believe the winner of this will goal all the way this year.
p.s. wire by 56








seriously though should be a good un

Not a chance of you beating us.

Wires will be out to get you fter the Murrayfield weekend

And FC fans, No fighting



HKR 20
Wires 28

TBH i was impressed by your victory over Wigan at the weekend but i have been impressed all season ( Huddersfield and Sheffield apart) by Rovers willingness to play for one another and winning games whilst not at their best. Easily the tie of the round and could be decided by the rub of the green but going go with Rovers by one score in front of a packed Craven Park and a brilliant atmosphere.

Please leave that bl00dy drummer at home.

ERR... arrogant much?

they coming aswell?

Well they do have a free weekend.

No but will be watching on tv, should be a cracker, too close to call.

ERR... arrogant much?

Honest assessment i'd say...

You have twigged that Father Ted is a Wigan fan.........right?

fair play your in good form, but its far from a home banker, we have a good record overall against you and are coming back into form while you are having your best season in sl to date, should be an entertaining encounter which is hard to call, should be a close 'un tho

Were do you have the big screen now a days, when i came for the Quarter Final a couple of years back it was in the right hand corner of the north stand but obviously the stand has been put there since, just wondering were the screen is now and how well can it be seen from the south stand.

It's at the opposite end of the East Stand now near the South. If you're in the South Stand you'll probably be better off watching the game on the screen than trying to see the pitch!
