If Widdop and Hunt start in the halves for them I think we could be in a bit of trouble.
Let's hope our coaches midweek discussions with the Dragons counterparts was along the lines of them taking it easy with us.


Touch rugby anybody?

I know it's a friendly but this is a chance to earn a little respect for the Super League and for ourselves. Such a shame that we're missing half of our starting side

I was thinking more along the lines of borrowing 8 of their players

We could probably do without James Graham, Paul Vaughan and Tyson Frizzell running at us full pelt.

This will be good I'm looking forward to it

So you should.
I'm gonna enjoy it, regardless of the result.
Hulls elite team playing in Sydneys famous Anzac stadium.
Once in a lifetime.
Should be a great spectacle.

Will be a great experience for our young players who will get a chance to play an NRL side in a great stadium.
Glad the Dobbins are looking forward to it. Always good to watch big clubs.

It was a great stadium when it was first built in 1999 with a capacity of 115,000 which was almost achieved at the closing ceremony of the 2000 Olympics. Afterwards it's capacity was reduced to around 84,000 and there are plans by the current NSW government to knock it down and re-model it with a 75,000 capacity.

I was there at the 1999 Grand Final when Melbourne Storm beat St.George setting a world record rugby league attendance of 108,000. I was also at Odsal in 1954 for the Challenge Cup replay when the official attendance was given as 102,500 although several thousand others entered the stadium without paying,leading to claims that the real crowd exceeded 110,000.

Have seen they are looking at Naughton playing, I'd also ask Elis to play, promote it as his last ever game and get a few West fans to the game.

Saints haven't started so far, so hopefully won't be In full flow yet.

That's what I thought when we went back to Wembley didn't turn out that way though

A bit more at stake though, this is only a friendly, as long as we don't get any more injuries, then I'll be happy.
