I wouldn't be suprised to see us batter them, but I also wouldn't be suprised to see us get battered. Depends what their heads are like after last weekend.
Hudds 18 - 26 Rovers

I've seen the squads, but certainly Webster is subject to a late fitness test. If he fails it, we will have Chev at centre, and this worrys me based on early season form. He would be far better seeing his Rovers career out in the pack.
Netherton for Wheeldon and I'anson replaced by Cockayne for us. They are without B. Hodgson, Lolesi (and Thaler )
Result depends in large part on Rovers kicking game, I think.
Our props are a bit light compared to them. We will need to expand it a bit rather than get into a battle down the middle, Cookie and Dobbo need to firing I think. Murrell needs to batter Robinson with a Drew type tackle from the off.

I have a lot of faith that Chev is going to come good. Though, like all faiths, it isn't completely rational. C'mon Chev!

Can't agree more. He's a lot better there.

Saints by plenty, by miles even!

HKR are about as poor as it gets.

Shame it doesn't keep the sound like the full east stand of HKR. That's atmosphere.
