League form was poor last season but has got worse this season. I think he has an arrogance that he shouldnt have, like hes some super coach when in fact i think hes good but is not in the top percent of the best coaches in the game. He got lucky having Ellis to drive the team around, now that piece of the mix isnt there were hopeless and he hasnt got a clue how to sort it out. I think he thinks he doesnt need help. I saw Cas's coaching team on TV on fri night - Powell backed up with Orr and Sherridan - they even the Fax coach in the box listening in, Wakey had Chester with Monoghan - weve got Radford and Last - we need more quality and experience in the coaching team



Looks like it works for Cas with all their success.

Also got to mention Wakey's great season where they have lost 7/8 games.

To even suggest getting of Radford is madness, last two seasons have been the in 30 years, even this season we are still in the mix without playing well. SL is so tight these days, an off ft and you get beat.

Not suggesting we get rid but that he gets help as he cannot take us any further as is

Fair enough, possible option particularly with Horne less involved these days

Beat Cas next week and then magic after the cup. We have rovers and saints have widnes but Leeds V Cas and Wigan V Warrington so someone has to drop points. Still in our hands.

I agree and disagree at the same time.

Any extra coaches with new ideas will be welcomed and I cant see doing any harm. I dont think Radford has taken us as far as he can, he knows how to win SL and big games. I just think he thought the squad would cope better with the players we lost and could play to the style he wants. They cant but in Radford our recruitment has being sensational IMO so I would suggest work is already underway to rectify for next season.

This season is vexed IMO.

I'm not sure it is, people said we wouldn't even make the top 8 last year after big defeats at home to Leeds and Salford, same after the magic weekend and the loss to Leigh, I think are having short memories of last season, where we were equally as poor as this season.

Thinks have to improve hughly particularly our away form, where we look a different side, a lot will depend on Kelly and how long he is out for. Some players are capable but need to step up

Ive definetly not got a short memory on the matter but I take your point that certain supporters vary depending on how we have performed.

Last season I personally thought we would come good and had better players at our disposal. This season I just dont see it , I really believe we are near on performing to what is our best. If we play to our best and those above us have an off day we can win but we will not beat any side near the top when they turn up to play. Throw into the mix Warrington, St helens and Wigan have upped there standard and Cas and Leeds are still good. I find it very difficult to see us mounting a challenge for the top 4.

We were pants yesterday but we have it in us to beat Cas next up.
They didn't strike me as anything out of the ordinary watching them on Friday.
Need to get our poop together and try and maintain this year's unbeaten home record.
Get beaten and top four highly unlikely.

Technically there’s some truth in that. There are no more rounds in the cup after the final (hence its name), and there are only 2 rounds in the play-offs.

You say league form was poor last year, but you still came in third.

To my eye, Hull play a high intensity game based on aggressive defence, that can knock even the very best SL teams off their stride. However, you’re bound to have some low energy days in there too and when they happen they’re pretty obvious. Radford’s triumph has been to ensure they’re relatively rare. While making a profit in the transfer market.

The loss of Ellis and, despite his disciplinary issues, Watts means the rest of the pack have to step up. If you cease to dominate physically, you will drop down the table, that’s for sure. But as it stands, you’re fifth and still in with a shout.

disappointed in Bowden and green this year, on there day very good but Bowden inconsistent and green when he plays is good but just seems to be injured a lot, also don't see a lot in lane apart from effort, mini and manu again mixed bag although tbf to manu when fit hes played well, hopefully get westy up to scratch soon, still hopeful we can have a good cuprun but top 4 not looking good imo
