What did he say?
Would say it’s a bit different to those other scenarios you mentioned as Leeds/Bradford and Leeds/Cas were facing each other in finals. Also Hull have been contenders recently with the cup wins and narrowly losing at Headingley in 2017 in the playoffs.
Basically said it was Hull KR’s Cup Final, Grand Final and World Club Challenge all rolled in to one. Along with a few other whinges.
As I said, disappointing from him as I thought he’d matured past those kind of cheap shots.
In which case the scenario is worse as there’s no real challenge between the 2 clubs in any practical sense. It’s all in their heads and they need to get over it.
I can understand Hull KR using it as a way of providing impetus to their season as they’re playing a rival who is generally ahead of them toward the top of the table.
But Hull FC should not be concerning themselves with a rivalry with at best a mid table team. Not if they want to really challenge at the top.
