Should be a good test.

I'm confident after the respective performance this weekend, the Cas game seemed more comfortable than if was on the score board. We didn't even struggle for yards.

Hope we can be more dangerous with the ball and expect it should come the more players we get back and the more they play together.

That's definitely where I think we can gain with French at FB. Hardaker is great at returning the ball but I think French might be more threatening in the more structured attack.

Unfortunately I cant see anything but a Wigan, although think it will tight, we have been very strong defensively but without Reynolds our attack looks a bit laboured. Think Hastings and your quick wingers could prove the difference.

Who is likely to be back next week for you guys?

I think we’ll be very similar to this week but I expect Tommy Leuluai to come in.

Overall disappointing, looks a yard too slow, think he would be better at centre, but could still cause you problems with his power and ability under the high ball.

Our strengths are Connor, our centres and 2nd rowers.

Props are decent too.

We have a young lad at 6 Ben McNamara, who has done ok, love the fact he is getting a continued run, despite not playing great, that is what Wigan would do, previously we would drop him and move 3 players around

Cam Scott likely to get a run?

He lost his place to Bureta, but I would imagine he will play Thursday, I think most Hull fans are waiting and hoping he can regain his best form. He did get injured in Australia, and this may have hindered his progress regarding full fitness.

Doubt it, not with the experience of our backs.

Must be next in line though

I'm hearing Griffin won't play, in which case there's every chance that Scott will start at centre. The other option would be putting Fonua at centre and giving our new Fijian winger a debut.
