I'd certainly have given Washbrook a stint at 6 against Wakefield when it became obvious that Carlos wasn't working. But only because that's all we could have tried.

Carlos set up 2 tries and scored one from off half didn't he ? Looked a bit rusty at times and it was clear it was his first game as a pivot for Hull but he is a threat when running with the ball and we need threats. He was as good as Sneyd who has been playing in the halves for ages.
Washy's days as a 6 are long gone. He's been decent elsewhere for us this season - the new Rich Whiting in many ways.

I think people underestimate the influence Pryce still has on games.
He may not produce the goods as often as he used to, but defences need to watch him carefully because he is still more than capable of creating chances.
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Last years Easter derby was nothing to do with us being more fired up, you were just bloody awful, we should have put a cricket score up that day but in the end the score margin wasn't that wide.
I never saw any passion in our performances against you under Chester and that was disappointing as I thought he'd get 'it' and fire them up but he seemed incapable.

Agree, very clever player, should be coaching our attack

As I've said many times when fit Pryce is easily the classiest half at the club. Easily.

His weight and fitness are no different to when we played last year and he did well, hard to judge him on one awful team performance.
