Im sure he does have a point to prove but that point is over a whole season, not 2nd round in February.

I think a significant point needs to be made in the first 8-10 games/

That I agree with, we have more quality in the side this year and should have enough to win games even if not firing on all cylinders, like last Friday

Thought Luckley was good last year , good offloading so he will be a miss for HKR.

No wind at HKR will be a blessing.

As Loiner at large said , the slow starts are a regular event and I was hoping something that RS would change this season. We can’t afford to repeat so many first halves from last year where we get pinned in our half and rarely get into opposition 20 until the game is lost.

Sangare and Goudemand start

Sacrebleus!

Aside from 'comfort banket' on the bench for TNW and whether we start with lisone or sangare, as expected really, though hoped McDonnell was fit.

Side tonight is good enough to compete and win.
Tough game over there and its been wet all day in Hull. Can handle a loss tonight if we play and compete well. Don’t want a repeat of last years lame showing over there.

plenty of wind in the stands though after eating all those burgers

To be fair for all his faults Donno can cover 2nd tow prop and 13 if needed, im not a huge fan of having 2nd rowers on the bench

Miller taken ill

I hope theres no cards tonight.

A traditional east hull diet, can’t beat it.

Shame about miller, hope Edgell takes this with both hands

Edgell fb or wing? I hope the lad comes off better than Hooley at KR last year (minus their main kicking threat)

Go well Alfie, Lachie will be gutted but nothing you can do if you’re unwell, makes the task tougher

my eye roll was bemoaning the continued lack of good fortune obviously, not Millar being ill.

I imagine Handley may well cover FB

Lets hope a new star is born not another Luke Hooley nightmare.

We are over due a young player breakout performance

Hoped they told Miller he's not ill,that's just how Hull Smells.

We look very low on go forward and unknown at the back.
Hope the FB kid does well

Lasted 10 minutes

Good finish harry. Is this pitch made of cake?

Hope our discipline and errors settle down before theirs do.

Hopefully a few games ban for Donno

Lol Donaldson.

We will probably appeal given how few props we have

Good effort so far, considering the players missing
