to me he is offering us hardly anything, some of the games i have seen this year you only just don't notice him at all. indeed we did a lot better when he was injured early on in the season. i have been very disappointed, i thought he was going to be a creative forward, but seems to be another back rower trying to cart it up the middle all the time. lets hope he gets a chance to play a more creative role next year or i would be in favour of shipping him out at the expense of a big purpose built prop forward (assuming tickle stays of course).

He'd be part of the cull, if it was up to me.

Has been very average for most of the season. Hasn't kicked on since he left Cas.

looked a class act last season.

He's been out injured for most of the season!

Had a few good games at the back end of last season, but looks ordinary overall.

Thats because he is pretty ordinary. Had a wow of a season in the Championship and got vastly over hyped and over rated. Likes his ale too much as well. Was out with Chase the other week when Chase got caught out, at least he had the sense not to go out in the town/city he plays at though!

Sooner play Whiting at 13.

He's played 9 games, which is enough to judge him on.

He has done little to nothing in a Hull shirt since his much hyped arrival, and we should expect a lot more of him. If I was in charge I'd tell him he has the rest of the season to impress, or he can find a new club next year.

Not a cat in hell's chance that Westerman is going anywhere, forget the idea.

I used to like the idea of having Westy at 13 so he can get his hands on the ball in the middle of the field and act as an extra pivot. But I've always been a huge fan of Whiting and think he needs to be in the 17 each week. But lately especially as we're losing Manu and perhaps Tickle too, that Westy should move back out to the edges and put Whiting at 13. He's arguably the inteligent player at the club, he has a great rugby brain.

We still need to sign another back rower though, I'd be happy with Dale Ferguson if we could get him.

think he's been trying to defend aggressively a bit too much, doing this down the middle tires him out so he doesn't do much in attack. I'd like him to replace Tickle on the right hand side as we've seen his best (only?) form out there at the back end of last season.

Got the talent, he showed he can be a good player in the 2nd half of last season.

Needs to up his game like a few others, was very poor yesterday.

I think Gentle is still not sure where he works best. Hasn't been good in the middle, perhaps time to move him wide.

Scapegoat

I don’t know what he brings to the squad tbh. I'm sure he's got plenty of potential for Hetherington to have shelled out 100,000 sheets for him, but he's a bit of a luxury player we can ill afford IMO. Our lack of size doesn't help, but I think Lee Richardson called it when he said he's never seen him take control of game.

More interested in ale than being a top class player.

It's possible now you will see the best of him now Watts has signed and Chase to follow soon, a few friendly faces could do the world of good.

Should Chase sign for us one of the best aspects will be seeing Rovers and Cas fans on here desparately trying to hide their devastation.

Huge scapegoat. He's the very least of our worries and I do think he had a better game yesterday. To think of getting rid of him is ridiculous, he captained the knights last season and people have called for him to be our future captain!

Even though plenty of FC fans would rather have Holdsworth?

Was very good down the right last year and would be happy to see him & Whiting rotate there and 13.
Obviously 6 or 7 games back from injury coinciding with a chronic injury list to mainly forwards means nothing and he should be bossing games from within a beaten pack. Obviously the reason he isn't is because he'd rather go on the lash at Xscape.
He's been no worse than anyone else this year.
He's young, British, got potential and has been captain of the knights setup. Exactly what Gentle wants in his squad.

And anyone that listens to Lee Richardson is an idiot.

Don't forget he's club trained too and free's up space.

(as Brough would be also)

Who are these people? I haven't seen anything from him in terms of leadership, determination or passion. Things that every good captain needs. He looks like he just turns up on the day and goes through the motions to me.
