Super League Round 8 – Friday 7th April 8.00pm KC Stadium
This for me is our biggest test of the season so far; these lot still cannot get over the fact that we are the biggest club in world rugby and always will be.The fact that they have no coach at the moment should make no difference, they will be up for the game and we have to hit them hard early on.
I say this is the biggest test of the season so far because most Rhinos I know had, due to the low key preparation pre-season, written off the two points from the Saints match before we played them, now we are in much better form.
We should see the return of Chev Walker, Shane Millard and Willie Poaching as all are named in the 18; Nick Scruton should be the one to miss the final cut giving Ian Kirke another opportunity to show what he can do.
Hull’s final 18 does not include King or Briscoe who have wimped out but Richard Swain is back in the squad and should start after recovering from injury, we should be targeting him.
The Rhinos are quite rightly favourites with the bookies but Hull are only given 8 start, I will be lumping on the Rhinos at that, I can only see one winner.
Prediction: Hull 12 Leeds 28
Come on Leeds!!!!!
