Tough game v Cas, but one we are capable of winning.
This is the type of fixture that will firm up our Top 5-8 credentials.
Just like Salford, we won the home game last season so it will be no direct improvement on last season (unlike the Cats game which we had lost last season). However a win will consolidate our good start and a comfortable win will support our hope that we could be in for a good season. A defeat will suggest our hope could be misplaced.
My glass is half full, so I'm confident of a win. If we do win, the Wigan match will then test if we have any Top 4 credentials.
Happier times and like they said in the Shawshank Redemption, 'hope is a good thing'

Tough game, their starting 13 looks good and a match for ours, we have won the last two games in the pack and they are strong there, particularly the starting front row.
It may come down to the bench, so if it is close when the first interchanges come on and we can bring on Frank, Bowden and Ellis, this could be were we take control like the last two games.
Unless there are any injuries we don't know about, I don't see any changes, personally I would be tempted to play Naughton in front of Micheals, as he has looked good in pre season and apparently looked very good for the reserves and he offers more to Hull long term, but I don't see Radford making any changes.
Really looking forward to the game, but feeling a bit nervous about it.

I think a right edge of naughton and logan could struggle against webster and solomona. michaels to keep his place for me
Hope we give Lynch a good reception tomorrow - I loved seeing him at Hull. We really should pepper the hell out of Crooks though and watch his head go down. Wouldn't mind seeing Holmes in an FC shirt too. He gets better every year. Could be a great game but I'm pleased Carney isn't there now. Shenton will be a massive loss. I predict Carlos to get 2 or 3.
