There was a identical tackle today . Can't remember which half but only difference was attacker never got injured therefore it remained 13 aside and no one copped a 2 game ban.

Not if you score first then they can;t get the ball back

v Cas on Sunday 18th June at 3pm.

NICE

Great news!

Brilliant, arrive back in Hull at 2:55 though, can I make the game.

Worst case scenario find a pub with it on.

We played Castleford on the same day as the Hull 10k last year...hope it's the same result!!!

Expect Salford away now to be moved, currently on the Sunday before and they play Wakey in the cup on the Thursday.

Should help us - we've currently got an 8 day gap before the Salford game to play with.

You have to question the common sense at Sky don't you. Salford v Wakefield & Leeds v Featherstone for the Thu/Fri games. Common sense would dictate that the teams with only 16 miles between them should play the Thursday and the teams with nearly 50 miles the Friday so why do they put them the other way round?!

Ruuuuuuuun!

Not sure Sky would have had much say in this to be honest. BBC got the pick of the games and would have had the say on timings.

Wakey to Salford is only a 50 min journey, an hour tops. Avoiding Friday traffic is probably not a bad thing.

As for our game, from a personal point of view I'd have preferred Saturday as I cannot make the Sunday. C'est La Vie!

From a team point of view, this creates a big imbalance on turnaround for the Wakefield game. Id they play Thursday, We play Sunday and then against each other the following Friday!!!!!!

Think BBC have first choice and Sky pick up the crumbs.

Me I'm chuffed brother over from Vancouver that weekend.

Great time to play for me and we should get a bumper gate to watch a game on the beach.

Oh I know, but surely Sky chose who to have on each night? Just seems daft to me but then again, this is the broadcaster that thought it a giggle to send us to Widnes 3 Thursday nights on the bounce!!

Not normally a fan of Sunday games but this one really suits

Games have been kicking off about 5 minutes late just lately so you might not miss that much.

Plus we could try and delay it a bit longer

Pitch invasion? no sorry forgot that's this Sunday!

Naughty naughty Wilf

but with all the discontent with there fans going on we should make a massive push to promote this game.

I sincerely hope you dump Cas out of the cup so we don't have to put up with gushing, biased commentary from John "Cas born and bred" Kear.

Like Ray French with saints ??? Or Phil Clarke with Wigan ??? Why has this never bothered you before ??? Certain commentators have an affiliation with certain teams it's life, grow up !!!

Ignoring the village idiot, I don't think iv looked forward to a cup tie more apart from wembley. 2 of the best teams in the competition going hammer and tong with strike all over the pitch. Our fans are confident as are yours and both teams fans have every right to. Some of your tries against Catalans were quality and i don't think you get the credit your attack deserves in comparison to the plaudits we are receiving. I honestly think we will scrape it but I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't. I honestly can't wait.

Its not the tie I wanted but I suppose if we had to play you sometime it may as well be in the quarters where we where lucky enough to get a home tie, think its a very tough game for both clubs and a genuine 50/50 which with home advantage I just fancy us by a goal kick, if you win I hope you win the cup shame we got the Sunday we could have done with a bit more rest before facing Waky the Friday following, especially since they are playing Thursday but hey we never get it easy off the RFL

There's a lot of water to go under the bridge before this game. Either team could lose key players to injury which could change the situation significantly. If we're near full strength and play well I think we win no matter what cas do

Not many more Wembley finals if Mr Draper has his way?

Would be interesting to know what measure is he using to categorise it as the third biggest? Can't be attendance can it? Even if it was, Magic attendance is distorted by free tickets. I know where I'd prefer to go and would be disappointed if Wembley was canned.
