Second most scored. 8 halves of rugby with no try scored against us (two whole matches where we didn't concede a try). Bounce backed from cruel Wigan defeat to beat Huddersfield away and since St Helens loss, have won 3. Managed without our key playmaker for several weeks. It's surprising us too, but we keep churning out the victories, so we must be something, even if it's not all we are cracked up to be.

You should have hammered our patched up side but didn't, hence my belief you aint that good. You've been pretty lucky with injuries so far. Lose morley and/or carvell for any length of time and you'll struggle

Hull were brave on monday but we always had the measure of them and it was obvious they would crack eventually. We actually scored 23 unanswered points there so must be doing something right! I haven't seen anything from Hull KR this year that worries me and like many people suggest I think they over achieved last year. I think we will win comfortably unless we have a serious off day!
Hull had 7 first choice players out, lost their only recognised 1/2 back early on, ran with only 15 players due to lack of players available and it was still in the balance at 70 minutes. With a fresh, full strength team I think we'd have won

a patched hull side that was missing 3-4 players , still had a decent team out to turn anyone over
if we aint that good how come were second 2 points behind wigan and 2 points infront of saints , or would you call that lucky too

If Rovers do beat one of the form sides at present on sunday it'll be because the fc fans will say Wire played terribly ( even though they won't have seen it ) or the referee was biased or that fc tired them out on monday
Lets hope we give them the opportunity to use one of the excuses.
Standing up to the forum bully.
It must be working, he doesn't like me...i'm devastated

Very little chance of that, Ben Galea missed the start of the season and is just starting to hit form, as for Clint he will relish this game after his hat-trick last time out against you! Mind you I'm not expecting the same this time around. Expecting something more like last years Cup QF but hopefully this time we'll sneak it but to be honest not really expecting us to win as Wire have further strengthened and are playing well and can score tries from all over the park.
We have injuries to Shaun Briscoe and Joel Clinton to worry about as they will be badly needed. Looking forward to it all the same! Experts say this is the weekend when the hard Easter weekend really takes it's toll on players fitness so fingers crossed for an injury-free game!
