Granted Derbies are notorious for throwing up upsets.
However, if I were Morgan I'd be telling the players that they will never have a better chance of posting 50 points and putting the record Derby score out of reach.
I expect us to be ruthless.

Rovers should win looking at form, in fact the should win by around 20 points. That said when you beat us 42-6 we could not have been in better form and you could not have been in worse. Over the years I have watched rugby and in particular the derbies form is not always important and upsets often occur as it's a unique one off game. That said I am not hopeful, we are not a bad side it's just that we have no confidence and ceratin players know they are going, should we raise our game for this one match it could be a belter, if not it will be an easyish win for Rovers.
That will the same at all clubs.
I am confident of a Rovers victory and if Cooke plays a convincing one. Saying that i have seen to many derbies where the form book has been turned upside down and whilst confident would never rule out the unexpected.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Who exactly is going to engineer an FC victory? Our tactically astute and highly motivational coach? Our scrum half (either Thorman, possibly the worst player in the irregular hoops since the nineties and unceremoniously dragged off the pitch at Cas, yet to return, or a hooker)? Our ball-busting front row (oh, that's right, Dowes, Cusack, Lauaki, possibly Thackray, all injured - and not really fearsome anyway)? We are playing the worst rugby I can remember for years. The only thing you can say is at least we are consistent, having beaten only Salford, Celtic and Cas since our 5 from 5 start, and not playing well even in those wins.

Never criticise a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes.........that way you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.
