Get there if you can, I know Thursdays can be a rush but as has been said this is Gareth Ellis' final game at the KCOM a

Hope it will be both a big crowd and a good game. Gareth has been a great servant to RL and all the teams he has played for - particularly Wakefield and Hull so it would be an appropriate match to give him a big send off.

The full 19-man squad to face Wakefield is as follows:

1. Jamie Shaul
2. Mahe Fonua
3. Carlos Tuimavave
4. Josh Griffin
5. Fetuli Talanoa
6. Albert Kelly
7. Marc Sneyd
8. Scott Taylor
9. Danny Houghton
10. Liam Watts
12. Mark Minichiello
13. Gareth Ellis
14. Jake Connor
16. Jordan Thompson
17. Danny Washbrook
19. Steve Michaels
21. Sika Manu
22. Josh Bowden
28. Brad Fash

Michaels will play. last match at the KC and really cant see the point of playing Talanoa if he is nursing the arm injury
Understand slight doubt with Minichello.
Like to see Connor given a run at right centre
Hope Tuimavave is fit we really miss his defence,workrate and he takes the ball up well.

Apparently Rovers fans are arranging a plane with a banner saying "Rovers are back" or similar for the game. Will we be able to see it in the dark?

Re: Wakey : Tue Sep 12, 2017 7:02 pm  

As strong a squad as we could hope for at this time of the season. With absolutely no disrespect intended, as they've been fantastic this year, if we can't beat Wakefield at home with minimal injuries we don't deserve to be in with a chance of top 4.

OT - Luke Gale has caught appendicitis off Chris Green, and is out for the rest of the season.

On their forum they reckon it's a smokescreen and he was always going to be rested for the next two games. The definitive made up #timelyboost if so.

It's the same one that they used at the start of this season.

The Championship always needs a strong Hull Kingston Rovers!

If it was simply a message board rumour I reckon you would be right, that is on their official web site and the YEP website suggests otherwise.

For us to get third it's looking like we'll need to win both of our games and hope Wigan lose 1 . With cas playing us both I wonder if they have a preference who they play in the semi , and might change how they approach both games coming up . I can't see them fancying playing us after our games this season . I don't fear cas but I'd prefer Leeds in the semi .
