Tough one this. Really too close to call.

Gonna go for a Hull win but dont know by how many

Re: GAME ON : Hull FC v Wakefield Trinity - 19:45:00 : Fri Mar 15, 2019 9:12 am  

Depending which Trinity side actually turn up either FC by 16 or Trinity by 4.

Wakefield play some good rugby and have plenty of threats, but Hull should be too good if we continue to play with the confidence we have shown in recent weeks.

The key for me is when you look down the (probable) spines.

Shaul
Kelly
Sneyd
Houghton
Westerman

Vs

Hampshire
Miller
Brough
Wood
Crowther

Hull are far superior in these positions imo.

The main problem for Hull is stopping Fifita and Pauli running riot. If we do that then it should be a fairly routine win. If not then there will be chances for the likes of Tupou and Johnstone to show their undoubted quality.

But I shall go Hull by 12

Is Fetuli Talanoa no longer at Hull FC ?

Hope I'm wrong but, Hull are now in decent form and with home advantage, they will win by 8 points.
Pity that we will get stuffed in a corner of the ground (again) but, that's life.

Hull will clearly get all of the calls and Trinity will be stuffed in the penalty count and probably have 2 perfectly good tries ruled out, again

Away fans are seated in the North Stand aren’t they ?

Only Rovers get the north stand. No other team brings enough fans to make it worth opening the full stand. Away fans get 3 blocks (maybe even only 2) in the corner of the east stand and they dont even fill that out.

Yes, unless bringing in Savelio has changed anything.

He played for the reserves a couple of weeks ago, so presumably he is available, but Naulagos performances mean he has to wait for a chance.

Corner of the East Stand normally at Hull. On the result, I'm going for home advantage. Hull by a couple of scores, but I predicted the same for Wakey last week at home to Rovers and I was miles out! I'm about on a par with Schoey for predictions
