Can't jump, can't pass, can't make a break and now he can't defend very well. He will no doubt get another year which will be a farce. No way is he the required standard any more
Totally agree, Talanoa made some poor last night, however he still looked our biggest threat going forward and made more breaks than Yeaman has made also season.
Yeaman offers nothing, Radford for whatever reason can't see it and will continue to play Yeaman, no matter what happens.
Radford team selection still worries me, I hope he brings back Lineham and Shaul next game (I know people like Rankin, but I prefer Shaul and think he is the future, unlike Rankin who is looking to leave ASAP).
If Westy comes back I'd keep Abdul on the bench to play hooker for spell, this would be my team
Shaul Lineham Talanoa Sa Naughton/Micheals Pryce Sneyd Watts Houghton Paea Mini Ellis Westy

What a sad individual you are not content with making derogatory petty childish remarks at every avenue you have to further carry on stalking me everywhere that I make comment... I really pity you, I'd suggest help but frankly you're well beyond it.
So, you don't agree with what the opening post states, if so why not say what your viewpoint is? I guess you can't, you just like to feel a sense of self importance in your own special way by posting gash all the time.
I'm a supporter of Hull FC, I have been since my first game in 1978, am I a No.1 fan, no, I've never stated such, my location and my schedule means that I don't get to as many games as I'd like to, that doesn't mean my opinion is any less than yours or anyone elses. That I can actually watch and/or listen to the games that I don't attend is none of your business but it actually makes your point moot.
Why not have a day off and just contribute to the forum in the normally accepted way instead of posting in such a pathetically child like fashion all the time.

Abdul Whiting Green Feka
Abdul would be slower than Houghton is , Would rather se Shaul back at 1 with Rankin spelling at 9 .

I agree about getting Sa back at centre, but IMO Ellis was our best prop on Friday night so I wouldn't really call for him to go back into the second row atm. Maybe put Thompson there for a few games.

Our worst half this was with Rankin playing hooker.
Rankin would be much quicker than Abdul around the ruck area , Abdul is way to big to be anyway near 9 . And they were 12 other players on the pitch against Leeds .

Don't agree, Cunningham and Newton seemed to do OK,not sure what you are basing Rankin being faster on, it's about distribution and decision making at hooked, which Abdul is better at than Rankin, if it's about pace, then let's play Shaul or Naughton there.
The momentum changed when Rankin went to hooker and they scored there first try from poor defence around the ruck, they were plenty of players who were also poor that half, but Rankin looked really poor there.
Personally I'd have Cunningham there, but Radford obviously doesn't rate him.

Agree about Cunningham , Give him a decent run a interchange 9 or get rid .

So how can you give such fine analysis on our players & staff if you don't watch?
