Hull FC win Good Friday Derby to reach Top 4 : Mon Mar 21, 2016 8:27 pm  

Here we go again...

Best case for us I think would be if Talanoa and Fonua are fit again. Then I reckon Radford will go with:

Shaul
Talanoa
Yeaman
Logan
Fonua
Tuimavave
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Bowden
Ellis
Minichiello
Manu

Watts
Pritchard
Green
Washbrook


Weather forecast at the moment is dry. Big game for both teams

Same but swap Logan for naughton and put fonua to centre.

That team is more then good enough to beat kr, our forwards alone will hopefully set the platform against krs light pack.

If we match or exceed KR for Derby enthusiasm and intensity we will do ok. Anything less than that and we will get what we deserve.

P&O Ferries are running a couple of excursions for Hull fans. Only a few places left.

If that's the wingers, Rovers will just put high kicks up to the wingers and cause us massive problems.

Talanoa shouldn't play on the wing again, unless we are short, lacks too many basic wingers skills to play there.

Bentham's ref for this one.

Agree, got to start this one with the right tempo and sustain it. Rovers are good at out enthusing us in the Derby. A game we should be favourites to win, but give them a sniff and they could win it, especially after their win yesterday.

I doubt they'll be no more than a score in it either way.

Every one of us are hoping and praying that our players are up for this one, the dark side fans don't have to, it's a given they will be sweating blood to beat us! Why should that be?

They are saying the same about us. However, I think we've won three out of the last four so reckon it's their turn.
