He told Rhinos TV, "It was tough in the last two games because of the rain and it does ruin the match a bit in terms of a spectacle. It was more difficult last week than against Hull KR so hopefully we won't get a repeat against the Bulls. It is going to be a tough game, they have pushed us all the way in the last two meetings."

All tickets for the Carnegie Terrace have now sold out and there are less than 1,000 tickets left for the South Stand. Fans wishing to go in the South Stand must enter via the turnstiles at the South Stand. However, cash turnstiles will also be available on both St Michael's Lane and Kirkstall Lane.

Ground entry is £20 for adults, £13 for concessions and £12 for Under 15s. Ground entry will give you access to the Western Terrace on the night unless you enter via the South Stand or upgrade at the ticket office for a seat. There are limited amounts of seats still available and you can pre-purchase yours now by calling 0871 423 1315 or online 24 hours a day at www.therhinos.co.uk/buytickets

The game is not being shown live on Sky Sports so the only way fans can see the big Yorkshire derby is by being there in person.

Turnstiles open at 5pm on Friday evening and before the main game there will be a special match between the East and West of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines, which kicks off at 5.45pm as part of the Armed Forces Day celebrations.
