Thats a massive call Paul.

A massive positive from the game. First time i've seen him so was dissapointed he wasn't bigger as there's no doubt we lack size but thought he had a top game. The biggest plus was that he's obviously a bit of a ball player, he wasn't just driving it forward, he stepped a couple of times, looked good on his feet and crucially he does have some pace. Also a couple of massive hits, one on Fattyvaloo at one point.
Maybe had to play a little longer because unless i'm mistaken, King didnt return second half.

The off the ball running for the Calderwood and G.Horne try was very good but its a shame we had to go behind by so many points before we start actually spreading the ball out.
If you compared our sets from the first half when we were in Saints 20 to the sets in the second half it would look like a entirely different side.
As you have said on countless occaisions, Radford is used as a 3rd prop at LF as is the way the game is played now. Play him as a conventional prop and we may find a place for Washy/Whiting at LF and have a ball running LF.

The way of the Monk.
The way of the Yogi.
The most honourable being 'The way of the FC'

Seeing Whiting back against Rovers was so refreshing. Someone with good defence, not a little guile, vision and (dare I say) showing some pace. Loose man or 6 would be a great spot for him.

I don't know if that was sarcastic or whether you mean it. Either way, I think your list shows how hard to pick it really is. And you have chosen two teams that Hull have beaten and one we haven't played. On their current form, now might be a good time to play Leeds.
I wouldn't like to call the top four at the moment and, because of that, can't see why Hull couldn't be counted amongst them.

Deffo looked a yard faster. Maybe he should break his other leg could become a real speedster
