Fergie would be proud of some of the 'mind games' on this thread :-)

50/50 for me, maybe 55/45 to Hull with being at Home and some good confidence.

Playing Ok at the moment but not brilliant.

Webster not playing will help us, as he always looks good against us.

If Hall is back, will he play at centre?

Hopefully Hull will have Yeaman and McKinnon back, and maybe Moa, looking forward and dreading this game.

Upper West, a couple of quid more but a fantastic view...

Me too, another day or so & I'll be getting butterflies. I love the atmosphere of a derby.

Rovers will go into this game ont he back of a terrible display against cas and will meet a Hull side full of confidence and who are getting a couple of players back! With hull flying high in the table and rovers struggling for form i cant see anything other than a home win by at least 20 points! I also forgot to add that Hull will be unleashing their new signing Pitts on us aswell and we know how good hes meant to be! When i read this back it makes me question why im going????? lol

I fear the worst.
Without Webster our right edge defence is crap, mainly because Horne isn't a centre and then he has been playing with inexperienced wingers, Manu, Yeaman and Briscoe will tear us apart down there.
Our only hope is that our pack do the exact opposite of what they did on Friday and play like we know they can.
We desperately need Hall, Webster, Galea and Green back.






What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

For that reason i expect rovers to up their game and maybe get a result, derbies never have been and never will be easy to call and i personaly cant call this one with any real conviction.
Although Hull may have Yeaman returning and their new signing also making an appearance i still think it will be won in the forwards, derby games are also as much about
mental strength as physical and thats why i believe a derby is not always the ideal game to come back from injury or make your debut as in the case of Pitts.

If both teams were at full strength it would be an easy Hull win. Our team is decimated with multiple internationals out so you're in with a chance and may well take the points






The poor man's bonaire

Didn't do Gleeson any harm in last years derby, and he wasn't match fit.
