As the saying goes onwards & upwards, they say form goes out the window in a derby but surely we've enough in us to beat the old enemy. Thoughts & predictions?

Knowing us, this is a game we will loose to Rovers

we will be fav no doubt, but I would never bet on a derby, saying that imo it would take a massive dip in our form for the dobbbins to get near us

Might get shot down for saying this, but with Frank back, I'd rest Ellis for the week. Two home games to follow against Saints and Widnes, and Frank will be very fresh. Give Ellis the week off to recharge the batteries. Mini, Frank, Manu et al have got more than enough about them. Houghton leading the side out in a derby will ensure the leadership and motivation remains at the same intensity.

You maybe right, we have the grunt in the squad to be able to rest players, that's how we got over Easter by rotating, keeps players fresh & ready to go.

Who knows Leeds can't buy a win but managed to turn you over so I live in hope

Just need Jake to reaffirm these sentiments and I'll sleep like a baby all week.

If we prepare for this game just like the rest , The result will take care of itself .

Shorter turnaround for kr too.

I'd be concerned as my half empty glass is starting to look quite full

you'll be hoping for lots of rain then

Whatever team the Dobbins put out next week, they'll be going all out for a win. Especially if they can end our run .
Don't forget they outplayed us for sixty minutes last time.
Hope we approach the game in the same way we would if we were playing a top of the league side.
Anything else could leave us looking silly.
