Let’s all have a go at the score
Flush out those who comment after the result rather than put their credentials on the line
Mrs B is negative on this
I have backed Hull -4
I say Hull by 16
Come on let’s have your predictions
Oh Tarquin, stop it. You're inviting predictions of outlandish winning margins for FC only for these to be used as sticks to beat Radford with when Wakey sneak it! Play sensibly everyone

Have I missed something? Why are you not being your usual positive self, Wakey by 14, what's that all about? We have the stronger team, a superior coach, I can only see a hard fought game but a Hull win.
Or is it down play Hull's ability, over emphasise our injury predicament, tell people not to bet on your team in order for Wakey to appear favourites so that if we do lose you can maintain the status quo in defending Lee and the team.
By the way I'm not bigging us up to win just so I can beat them with a stick if we don't, as you claim some are. I genuinely expect a response to Monday and a Hull win.

It's heartwarming that you believe Radford has the ability to coach us to victory against a team in 3rd place despite us missing quite a few, quite the vote of confidence. I'm not as convinced for pack reasons already discussed at length.

Looking forward to the game but think it’s a real tough task for us to come and take the two points again...
A lot is being made of our pack but we’re missing two really experienced props in England and Huby...players not really being talked about with both halfbacks and that deadly dream team left edge missing.
We’ve coped so far without them but I think this may prove a game too far after two big efforts over Easter...neither Fifita or Kopczak trained this week as both have slight niggles...hopeful they play but not a gimme...I’d say our two first choice backrowers are missing too in Batchelor and Ashurst and although Kirmond and Horo have stepped in I think Kirmond in particular may struggle after only just come back into the side and playing both Easter games...
The rest of the pack then you’re talking Arona and Pauli who’ve both been playing big minutes and could feel the affect of this 3rd game, so too Keegan Hirst...
It’s been a great ride so far for us Trinity fans and the lads will give their all but it might just favour the fresher side and although since the opening day debacle at London our worst margin of defeat since was a 6 point one to Saints with a late score...I feel we may just be on the end of our worst defeat so far...as a betting man Hull -4 looks unreal...

According to you we are joint 3rd, so what difference does that make? but now you're confirming Wakefield are 3rd and not us, how contradictory of you. Again getting your excuses in for a loss, conveniently. Again as already discussed at length Wakey have no recognised 1st choice halfs and a depleted backline as long as we don't take them on through the middle and keep turning their forwards around I believe we do have enough to win. I'm also touched I've warmed your heart believing in Radford. As we're often reminded he has led us too 2 cup wins and 2 top 4 finishes so why should he not coach us to victory over a depleted Wakefield side at home. I'm disappointed you now under value him and don't believe he has the ability to beat a team in joint 3rd.
