i really think hull will bounce back this week. against a big hull pack you need what we have lacked, a good kicking game. i believe we are a better team, but they will be up for this so we need to keep turning them around!

An improvement needed for certain.

But as Catalan showed yesterday - you have the chance of turning anyone over on the day.

I think we have a very good chance of winning this, especially with Long out and O'Meley both out! I always enjoy the trip to hull even if its only for a good laugh at the idiots in the corner arguing and fighting amongst themselves!

Any news on Heath?

Sibbit and ... to miss out

Should be going there with confidence. As has been mentioned two key areas are ball retention and defence. Can't remember a game when we've handled the ball well!

Would be good to see Heath and Langley back. Need them two in defence.

Connor said earlier when I asked him that Heath looked good for Friday but Briggs is another couple of weeks off now. And he knew of no fresh injuries until the players go back to training tomorrow. Let's hope there's no fresh ones.

Matt will confirm this in that I said four weeks ago that Briggs wouldn't play before the Salford game.

Halley will be back for the Warrington game.

If Paddy, Raynor & Ainscough are fit he won't be playing.

Referee: Ben Thaler (Wakefield)

James Child has been handed the Wigan vs Catalans game.

Its funny how you lot are talking about your sliding defence when we are having the same trouble with ours. should be a good game on friday with hopfully a good crowd, as you lot usually bring a lot.

Chav corner has all but gone now that the club have made the east stand all reserved. The east stand looks empty now as they have all shifted to the west and south stands.

Looking forward to seeing Gaz Raynor playing at the KC again(if he playing)

Obst and horne play well together so dont be fooled by Longy not playing as Obst has played well at 7 for us.
