Anyone who doesn't think this is a big ask is deluding themselves. This will be a real challenge for everyone I think.
All those points taken, If you think this is going to be a challenge for Hull you are sadly mistaken, we have no idea with the ball (we have scored 3 tries in the last 3 games and we were lucky to get them) now the player that created our only chances is out injured. Slightest sign of pressure on our defence and we fold in two. We look like a group of blokes thrown together, I genuinely think we are the poorest team in the league right now, should be a walk over win for Hull in my opinion.

Dont understand why limited number swimming is not allowed. Has to be one of the most sterile areas you could have

That's a strange one as you are now allowed to swim at the gym with limited occupancy. Hot tubs are open but the sauna and stream room, understandably, are closed.
BH has just confirmed in his press conference that Ligi Sao should be back this week, good news.

At the end of the sentence, I thought he was talking about FC for half a second....LOL
Squad is out. Same again except Sao in for Brown. I'd probably go with 2 changes, Sao replacing Brown obviously and Johnstone in for Scott on the bench.

I'd agree with that. I don't think we should be asking Houghton to do 80 minutes again 5 days after that mammoth effort.

Think we may see Fonua back either on the bench or starting if we make a change at half back
Definatley Johnstone on the bench, I personally think he offers a better pass selection from the play the ball, something that we didn't get right at times against Warrington. Would be a handy tool to have to bring on. Also to spell Houghtons huge defensive efforts. I think we l be on the front foot vs wakey so game probably suit Johnstone more
