Hard to single out anyone I thought right across the team we did well and what was mostly pleasing for me was seeing the backing up when we made a break, not one but two players most of the time. Massive improvement on last season.
No injuries is a massive bonus, have we had a season were one important/quality player didn't get injured early doors? Glad the new signings got a run out, really think Carlos will impress fans as I said when we signed him. I can't make Salford but looking forward to the Cas game, will have to survive on the FC live in the meantime

Was a very good display considering the number of interchanges. Plenty of depth and although you could tell when Pryce went off we didn't collapse as would have happened previously.
And as for Pritchard - the KR defence parted like the red sea when he got a proper run on. What a player.

Linkage and support much better and halves operated better without Westerman for me. Edge defence still a weakness - work to do. Radford wasn't happy about conceding 20. Encouraging start.

Forgot to mention the fans, yes it was a small crowd but i thought we showed that even with a stand closing, we can make a big impact and have a great time. Bring on Salford!

Was away this weekend so had to listen on Roverside, Richardson (I think) suggested a few times Pryce and Snyed got much better ball without it going through Westerman
hard to tell with Gollum but they mentioned a few mistakes by Fonua, other new players sounded impressive. Can't wait for it to get posted on Hullfc live.
Salford beat Wigan today, sets up the first game nicely. Hope the result adds a few more to the gate.
After seeing Pritchard today, it's clear we have a genuine world class player on our hands. The amount of space he managed to create for other players was awesome.
Tuimavave did everything right and has seems a natural footballer.
Sneyd 10/10, a huge step up in kicking quality.
Houghton I thought looked pretty good before he went off.
Smith I think is worth a deal.
Surprised to see Shaul out there after all that talk of bullying, the only bullying that went on was from our pack.
All in all lots of positives, some stuff to work on, and no new injuries.
