KR Humiliate FC In the Hull Derby
The opening Good Friday encounter was the Hull derby between an FC side coached by Tony Smith against the side which sacked him last season and now under the stewardship of Willie Peters as the fifth placed side travelled to a sold out MKM Stadium to take on the side languishing in eleventh.

At best a win for FC would raise them back above the Castleford Tigers on points difference but a win of twenty-six points or more would send KR into fourth spot ahead of the Saints and Wigan derby being played out later in the afternoon.

The visitors were slight favourites with the bookies as they were penalised four points on the handicap coupon, but the pundits thought that the game was too close to call, the stage was set for a classic encounter between the two arch enemies, two great Rivals.
