We have a far better back line then Rovers IMO and if we can get enough field position we will score points.Whether or not that will be enough to win the game we will just have to wait and see. Can see Rovers having the better pack on the day but with the likes of Manu and Tickle in some really good form and Aspinwall willing to put his hand up I don't think we are as weak as some think.



We've still got some good players out on the pitch, mixed with some players looking to make a mark on the first team. I think Rovers should start as minor favorites but this will be no walk in the park for either team.

Hull FC 143 missed tackles

Hull KR 271 missed tackles



I think we'll be fine. Especially if we run at that turnstile Welham.

Hull getting a 6 point start on William hill coupon so slight favourites in bookies eyes.

'eh



If we are getting a start we are not favorites, I bet your bookie loves you

I meant to put hull minus six

With a 3:1 ratio in REAL supporters, of course there's more intrest....do the math.





BTW, the CC game is more important at this time of year....get over yourselves.

Oh right easy mistake





Let us hope the bookies are right then

Really not confident about this with over half our pack out and the back up out aswell it could be a long afternoon on friday hopefully the lads will turn up and do the business, we need big performances from Lynch, Tickle, Manu and Whiting to win, we need to be looking to hit them out wide.

Nice use of emoticons,



I like the way you've just copied what other people have said to try to make me look daft, clever little thing arent you.

Think we'll lose and not felt so indifferent to a derby for a long time. We're a work in progress and won't do much this season. If they win then let them rejoice that they've beaten their big neighbours. I'm far more interested in where we'll be in a couple of years time

What's a "real" supporter?



We have a core of 7000 (not had a SL crowd lower than that since 2007), so your logic would suggest a minimum Hull crowd of 21000.



BTW you missed an s off the end of maths.

Peter doesn't sound worried about the derby.
