If Hull's players decide to apply the right attitude to a Super League game then I think we will win the game. Anything less than the attitude required, and for which they are paid, will mean certain defeat.

That's the problem with percentage rugby. When you don't play well there is nothing to fall back on.

You cant play any type of rugby with a cant be arsed attitude. If the desire to dominate the opposition in defence isn't there nothing else will be either.

I'm beginning to think that with the attitudes the players have displayed in the last two games it wouldn't matter what type of rugby we played.

As nice as it would be to see a performance from the players on Friday I would be seriously questionning where it has been for the last 3 games if we suddenly just turn up because its a derby. All those fans who constantly go on about how the derby is the most important game of the season blah blah blah may get their wish and see us put on a performance on Friday. Shame we are crap the rest of the time though.

Just been saying this to someone.

If we play like we did against Catalans/Bradford, Hull to win by 10-12.

If we play like we have the past couple of weeks, Rovers by 20-30.

If we play like we did yesterday (and at Quins) the likes of Dobson and Cook are gonna run rings round us on Friday. Especially Hall. Praying for a miracle at the moment.

Even if Hull win???

Well let me think................ Of course I want Rovers to win, and my day will significantly less enjoyable if we lose

What I meant was, I want both teams to play well, then a) I enjoy a good game of rugby and b) the victory would be much sweeter if both teams played well.
