They were nowt special on Sunday especially 2nd half. Should be a decent match up. Think home advantage might just swing it.

I'm comparing the fact that Leeds fans are stating it was their "last 17" which it clearly wasn't yet nothing was said about a weakens squad when they beat KR with two players difference- and you could argue having ward in the squad is an improvement!
They had already qualified- so you are saying they didn't want to go through the rounds unbeaten?
Surely the whole world against us doesn't go in our favour!
It's not our fault McDermott likes to mess about with his bench and swap players around- we can only play the team that we are up against.
It's will have given us tonnes of confidence but we won't be complacent given our last meeting- puts us in a very good place.
Over Half of Hull will be cheering on the Giants on Saturday too!

the other half cheering warrington

Well the powers that be at KR have said no to the Giants band. Set of Miserable winkers. Must be scared it'll drown out the incessant booing usually heard coming from the east stand. Only ground to turn hudds down when asked in advance.

The band make for more energised and noisy Giants fans - of course they will be knocked back. I would hope the giants would do the same if the boot were on the other foot.

Would expect HKR to take every action that gives them the edge. This is a mean big game, not a summer fair. Game on.

If it's true that we have refused access to their band then I'd like to think we will be up for an award from the rest of the RL community.

Bands at sporting occasions are on a par with half & half scarves.

Going to find this hard, however, completely agree. Bradford started with a band and ended up with a guy dressed as a gorilla, doing juggling tricks whilst riding round Odsal on a quad bike to the sound of wooly bully. Stupid gimmickry that should not be needed if the crowd are vocal and passionate.
