Agar won't take any risks on young players coz his job is on the line if it goes wrong. I often wonder how Hull would have handled the likes Burrows and McGuire had they been on their books as youngsters.
After last seasons fiasco it is hardly surprising he wants to start the campaign with experience and take the safe option, maybe if we get on a good roll he will then start looking at utilising options. I for one do not blame him.

I remember seeing Burrow make is debut in an evening game against Hull at Headingley when it was belting it down with rain. he covered for an injured Ryan Sheridan that night. That particular game, Hull won and it cost Dean Lance his job.

He did get MOTM for Leeds that night though , Hull have shown that they will blood the youngsters when they are ready.
Against Wigan and looking at the conditions for Friday night I think they have made the correct decison about playing Byrne and G Horne at FB and in the centre.

Agree we need to build confidence after last season not put youngsters under more pressure from the start of the season.
