The closer the game gets, the more I'm leaning towards Cooper over Hill to replace Byrne. It's the only decision to be made realistically.

I would hope the experience of Cooper and Thompson starting would settle the game quicker, which is something we struggle with. I really rate Hill and think he should at least play the next 2 games if we decide to rotate but bringing him into this one is a big ask. Last time around against KR from that first set we never settled and it cost us. Think start copper and Thompson go through the sets. Bring Harvard, Mago and Dupree on as impact.

I’m going Wigan by 10. We will have learned from our defeat a few weeks ago.

The HKR media love in is fine by me tbh. I think the hard work they’ve done away from the field warrants that and they’ve sort of turned in to this beacon of hope for all rugby league fans from Huddersfield to Hull because of the total dominance teams on this side of the Pennines have had for 6 years now (out of the combined 18 LLS, CC and GF’s up for grabs, 1 has gone to a Yorkshire/Humberside club).

Let’s have it right though, Wigan are the better side and if both teams play at their best tomorrow only one side wins. It’s over to us to make sure we do that however and it’s easier said than done as we found out last year in the cup.

We must be really unhappy with Walters effort seeing as he makes his debut in a cup semi

Re: HKR (CC semi-final) : Sat May 18, 2024 11:28 am  

Bit of a surprise that, let’s hope he smashes it

I heard Walters huffed when he found out he was in, stopped training and went for a kip in the players lounge. It’s pretty much a punishment this.

A guy on Red Vee told me.
