Hull FC Reserves v Wigan Reserves : Tue May 30, 2017 1:15 pm  

Well this looks like it is going to be a cracker!

We will have Talanoa, Fonua, Sneyd, Taylor, Watts (suspended probably) and Ellis missing. I don't think I can type out your missing players list!

One side will have to end their poor run, but to me I think it will come down to either Albert Kelly or George Williams producing some magic.

Odd kick off time too - will you be bringing many over to the City of Culture?

Those making the trip over have been asked to bring their boots

Must win game, we're running out of matches now before the split and even if we do get some bodies back in the next few weeks it's going to take them two or three more weeks to get match fit.
Feeling very much glass half empty at the moment following yesterdays game and I'll be quite relieved if we can get to 22pts asap and guarantee a spot in the Super 8's.

I make us slight favourites and actually expect us to win and if we can Grind a few more results out this month and teams above us falter like they have been doing we can still make the top 4,not saying it's a guarantee but I wouldn't be suprised if wakey and Salford fell away towards the end of the season,although Salford may already have enough points in the bag by then.
Yesterday was a sickner but there seems to be light at the end of the injury tunnel,call me mad but I still think we will make the top 4 and then who knows?

Just Budgie and Joel back for this one?

Is that correct the coaches are leaving at 2pm. Seems a bit tight for a 5pm ko

Sounds very similar to us, get a couple more wins to make sure 100% safe, then pressure is off slightly, maybe concentrate on the cup.

Top 3 from last year struggling a bit this year.

We're getting the coach for the first time in a while and we thought exactly the same.

Should be fine but I was hoping get chance to have a couple of pre match pints!
