I think if we lose the forward battle its game over though.
Not sure about that, I thought O'Meley, Fitzgibbon and Houghton carried the pack for most of last season.

I have a blister on my palm and forehead due to this thread.
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.

Head on now I see a good victory for Rovers based on 5 things
1. Fitness, speed and depth of the squad. 2. Settled team and a massive incentive to win from within the club 3. 2 fantastic half backs 4. One of the best packs in SL 5. WILLIE MASON
Score still 32-12

There are a lot of douches who criticise players like Dowes, Radford and Cusack. But they get through a lot of work and are great defenders and every team needs them.
Lets not forget Rovers approached Radford this pre-season!!!
But to some extent I do agree, O'Meley is the hardest to handle forward i've seen in a Hull shirt for a long time and Fitzgibbon is a machine. But the others are still good players.

22 - 18 to Rovers
yes Hull have a skinny squad, yes they have no h/b's, yes Agar likes his 5 drives and a kick tactic. BUT..... they also have a very good pack that will stand up to any in S/L, the pitch will be a leveller too IMO, last game to be played, a bit of a mud bath should make conditions hard to play in, BUT........ i think Rovers will just have a little too much for Hull.
