No bad news...…


1. Jamie Shaul, 2. Bureta Faraimo, 3. Carlos Tuimavave, 4. Josh Griffin, 6. Albert Kelly, 7. Marc Sneyd, 8. Scott Taylor, 9. Danny Houghton, 10. Josh Bowden, 11. Dean Hadley, 12. Mark Minichiello, 13. Joe Westerman, 14. Jake Connor, 15. Chris Green, 20. Brad Fash, 21. Sika Manu, 23. Mickey Paea, 33. Ratu Naulago, 35. Andre Savelio

Mini and Carlos replace Buchanan and Washbrook

Full strength, besides Ellis.

It's been a long time coming.

I expect Hadley to miss out, the other one is tough. A lot will think Fash, but he's been going well in this current 4 game winning run. Someone is going to be unhappy to miss out on the Derby decider.

With Matongo and Lane also missing. Good squad depth

Not to mention youngsters Wynne, Buchanan and Brown, who have all shown good signs for the future, when they've come in.

Backs pick themselves

Pack

Taylor
Houghton
Paea
Griffin
Mini
Westerman

Bowden
Green
Mini
Savelio

Our strongest squad, but I've said that a few times and players seem to drop out.

Rovers also have their strongest squad of the season and will add Parcel aswell.

It will be a tough game

He may revert back to keeping Kelly out of the early exchanges, and bring him off the bench, like he was doing earlier in the season. Although since then Kelly has improved and it would take a brave man to stick him on the bench.

This will be a very hard game for us and I expect Rovers to throw the kitchen sink at us. With the travel, the heat in Perpignan and the 5 day turn around (plus I expect perhaps at least Houghton and Kelly must be doubtful) it is what will be an almost must win game for the Dobbins. As for us well should we not get the points little changes and an 8 day turn around for Saints at home offers us a game in which we could make a real impact on the world of rugby league. But you know our lot the Forest Gump issue is always there and you never know what you'll get.

agree with all of that, radders on the radio last night said he was fed up of people saying rovers have no chance, but I have seen enough derbies over 60odd years to know the underdog can win so we need to give it everything and we should prevail

Re: Hull KR away (Derby week) : Tue Jun 25, 2019 12:52 pm  

Have a feeling Kelly will be missing.

Be glad when it’s over. Hate derbies.

Re: Hull KR away (Derby week) : Tue Jun 25, 2019 1:10 pm  

Maybe we will leave Mini out, allowing him the luxury and fanfare of a home fixture against the Saints and league leaders, celebrating his fantastic 400th appearance at the KC.

Still, not much different to getting the coach back from Wigan / Widnes.

It would be the effect of playing in the heat which may have been a bigger factor

It is when you fly at 08.00 which means some players will be up at 05.00,but the comment was to the HKR poster who thinks its only a one hour flight to Perpignan from Humberside
We usually play well in the heat
