6 of us going

COME ON YOU GIANTS

Shall be there.

Wonder if FC can show anymore in attack other than hope the backrowers will bust a tackle or offload.Or alternatively Seymour just kicking high for the corner.

We shouldnt relax one jot now we have first blood and worked a good game plan despite the mistakes

They have some forwards and we need to meet em head on again

Briscoe Yeaman and Turner are no mugs if the line breaks !

But more of the same --decent size pitch so let our kickers keep pinning em back and dragging em around- cut out the errors if poss and
get the ball flowing and Im pretty confident of going into the hat again!

yep!!!! me and the kids
very confident for the win!!

Just found out today that my son's game kicks off at 2.15 Sunday so that's 5 of us not going.

You are dead right,if our defensive effort is any less than what we saw on Monday it could be bye bye to Wembley.They like to grind teams down through their power do HFC,which is precisely what they did to HKR in the derby.We stood up to them though.Maybe the derby game took too much energy out of them.Lynch is a big player for them,for him I would commit 3 into the tackle,need to stop his leg drive.

Maybe they might try a different gameplan this weekend,chuck it about a bit more.

As for us,well we did go away from our usual throw it wide on every occasion gameplan last Monday,and ground it out ourselves.The drizzly weather was obviously a factor in that.

The KC playing surface is starting to resemble a desert up the middle,but no rain forecast for Sunday,just cold.

HFC are playing a tough style and strong defence the type we saw from ourselves 2/3rds of last season,but it looks like it's gonna take time for their coach to get the attack to where he wants it to be.Seymour at half has not impressed me in two games I have watched him on attack,though he is a top defender.

If we defend like Monday,I believe we have better structure on attack to get the win.I honestly wouldn't swap any of the Hull FC outside backs or halves for any of ours,and I wouldn't swap Houghton (as good as he is) for Luke Robinson

Yep, we are going and confident. I think we would have to be a fair bit off to lose this one. That says more about our progress as I believe HFC are a fair bit better than they have been in recent years.

Unfortunately I'm also their first aider otherwise I might have been tempted to miss his first Meltham game in nearly 10 years!

Hull FC are giving it the big sob story about their injury situation.They are starting to sound like Wigan fans.They have lost a couple of stars admittedly but have another two quality recruits returning in Moa (who will probably prop for Radford) and Tony Martin a straight swap for Yeaman at left centre would have thought.Plus they are saying poor ticket sales,boo hoo,I thought they were a big RL club who always looked down on us due to their superior levels of support.

Moa is one of those players who can turn it on when he feels like it. Not so impressed by Martin and think he is no where near as good as Yeaman. Nevertheless we need to worry about our own performances. If our lads play to their potential and follow the instructions provided by the coaches then we should be too good for Hull.

I wonder if they have let our coach in waiting take Cups games?
