as i suggested on another thread,this will be a true test of how much improvement we have made in the last few weeks.

Peacock should be back for this one.... Also glad sinfield and hall arent playing for england. Hopefully ablett will be the only player to play 80mins.....

Hulls 2 best players will hopefully play the full 80 in the exiles match.....!

Leeds will win this.....three wins on the trot...but it doesn't change anything

Agree with this. A good performance needed to suggest we are turning a corner. Defeat would show we are still a million miles away.

I think we have enough to do Hull. Now Hardaker's gone to full back he's given us another attacking spark really looking forward to this game!

[jools]

Given todays showing Leeds will give hull a good hiding.

It's a big test of where we really are, after the run of three wins on the trot, albeit, I'll concede against weaker teams in the league. Hull will present a much stiffer challenge than Wakey, Cas or London, but I just feel we are playing better now, with Zak at FB, and we have some confidence and momentum going into this game. Probably a good thing that some of the England guys are not involved in Exiles 2 on Wednesday, so we should have a reasonably fresh fit squad for this one. I'm looking forward to this one, and hopefully we'll continue the good form and get a bit of revenge for the KC defeat earlier in the season.

A solid performance and a convincing victory needed if we have can foster any hope of competing for any silverware this season. We need to be going in to the Wigan game in great form.

Does NOT change the fact that we have performed poorly this season against quality opposition, with our failings stemming from having an aging pack and mediocre replacement cover. We need to deal with Halls wing /centre partnership, keinhorst would be my choice.
