Pick a big pack for a start Dave, green, kopcheck, tangenoa, king to start and run over them hard and straight no coming off after 20 minutes it’s ridiculous, Brough must go he’s no pace and no idea what’s happened to his kicking game. Escare at 1 miller 6 rocky 7 plenty of gas there.

Sounds like a plan to me !

HKR coach Tony Smith has targeted this game for a win for KR.
He rested Danny McGuire, Craig Hall and Mitch Garbutt for the Wigan game last Friday night so they will be refreshed and raring to go.
Just hope that McGuire has an off day when we play them, we'll stand a much better chance of picking up a vital win.

I fear McGuire will turn back the clock for this one and run rings round us. They seem to have been able to get up for more games than us recently, too. Then again, who hasn't?! Hull KR by plenty.

Think our best 17 needs to be...

Escare
Tupou
Atkins
Lynne
Jones-Bishop
Hampshire
Brough
Kopchak
Wood
Green
Tanginoa
Kirmond
King

Subs..
Fifita
Pauli
Tangata
England

Need a big pack that will dominate for the 80...Can't se what having Randall in the 17 gives us. Brough over Miller just.

Up the Trin.

One of our problems is that we are not an 80 minute team, in the north stand - on - Sunday, all spoke around me, WAKEY supporters I did not know, said we are a 50 - 60 minute team ? Other sides know this & it's a problem we have not addressed again, we face badly each season in spite of being 5 th - etc, etc !

Really don’t see what Brough brings at all let alone over Miller.

England
Randell

Wood

Kopzcak

My concern is that we will match or exceed them in most aspects of the game, but lose because they have the clever players who will create more than we will.

Having to miss this one due to holiday but will be listening on internet

I think that would be my team too. Not sure if Atkins is clear to play yet though.
Atkins plays left so Arundal would be taking Lyne's spot.
If Atkins not ready I'd still put Arundal in centre.

I've always felt we had a chance in our previous relegation battles with our determination and fight for each other attitude. Unfortunatelt this time I don't feel we have the same spirit in the team.

Feel the same unfortunately. When we went down 6-20 at the weekend I was hoping to see the players step up like their lives depend on it, with some intent and aggression. Not much changed - too many players going through the motions.
