Play to our potential, do what we do well and we'll win comfortably. It's all about attitude
Only Thornley and maybe clarkson to come back in defiantly no Campese

They're always difficult games to predict vs Rovers.
On form and on paper we should win, but this fixture is different from the others with the hype, history and rivalry that goes with it. Some players raise their game, some go into their shell a bit.
As Jake says, if we turn up with the attitude we've had the last few weeks, we'll win.

It always is against us. A typical small-club mentality, obsessed with looking upwards at their neighbours and getting the 'little' wins.
Unfortunately for them, this attitude of 'as long as we beat Hull' runs through their clubs core - from Neil Hudgell to the majority of their fans. They'll of course say this is boll@cks, and for some fans it won't apply, but we all know it's true for most of em.
The West Brom of Rugby League. They're there, but as far as the playing side of things go, they're irrelevant, nobody other than them cares.

Yeah not far off full strength, only had 9 missing this week against Widnes, that's pretty strong compared to recent weeks

Yeh, right. That we have heard little coming out of the diet KC about him, suggests that he'll be named in the squad. Timely boost and all that.
As usual, form book's out the window for derby matches. As others have said, IF we turn up with the right attitude, then we should have too much for them.
I hope so, I want another good night in Newcastle, like last year.

No EGP available. Will either got 0 or 1 game. Shame if he misses, but we have enough cover if he does.
