There's an interesting one at the John Smith Stadium, Huddersfield hosting Hull KR. Hull
00:11
KR with a perfect record, Huddersfield complete opposite, they haven't won a game yet. So
00:18
you look at the form book, Hull KR go there, people will be expecting them to put a lot
00:23
of points on Huddersfield but they've got a Challenge Cup quarter-final against bitter
00:27
rivals Hull FC coming up on the horizon, that's next Saturday. So we could be forgiven
00:32
for having one eye on that. It would be interesting to see Willy Peters' team selection, whether
00:36
or not the rest of you, like Michael Lewis, players like that. But yeah, you would expect
00:41
Hull KR to go there and rack up a bit of a score. Huddersfield were dismal at Salford
00:45
last week, the worst performance of the season. But before that they were competing in games,
00:49
they were up at half-time in every game. So if they play like they did before Salford
00:54
they could catch Hull KR cold, for want of a better word. But you would expect Hull KR
01:01
to go there and win. But it's an intriguing fixture all the same.
01:09
Just for nostalgia, I'll go with Ryan Hull. He contributed to a huge win for Leeds against
01:15
Wigan. Not many people expected Leeds to beat Wigan. I know Wigan are having a bit of an
01:20
uncharacteristic wobble at the moment, they lost. They gave up a big lead to lose to Hull
01:24
in the Challenge Cup. But Leeds did a bit of a number on them, they beat them up front,
01:29
or they won that battle up front. And then they scored a couple of fortuitous tries.
01:34
Ryan Hull's header laying on the winning try for Jack Sinfield, it was fitting that he
01:40
should be involved even though it was bizarre. He's never done that before in his 499 games
01:45
before that. But to do that on his 500th appearance and then he gave a great interview
01:49
after the game, showed why he's so valuable to the sport. It was a great weekend for him
01:54
and a great weekend for the Rhinos as well.
02:01
Probably Rhinos see if they can back up. Consistency has been a big issue for
02:06
Leeds for a number of years now. So if they can go to Warrington and beat them up on the
02:12
back of beating Wigan, that would be a huge step forward and show some real progress.
02:18
They've been a bit all over the place early in the season with injuries and stuff like that.
02:23
But if they can get to the end of March with another big win in the bag,
02:27
that would set them up for a strong season.
