Yesterdays man (as you put it) or not Yeaman is playing well and shouldn't be dropped for Talanoa who when played at Centre is bloody awful.
Yeaman has copped a lot of stick over the past couple of seasons and righly so sometimes but FFS the guy deserves some credit for the perfomances he has put in whether he's nearing the end or at the start of his Hull FC career.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Talanoa should not get back in unless there is an injury at the moment in my opinion but need Carlos utility value Shaul Michaels Fonau Yeaman Naughton Pryce Sneyd Taylor Houghton Watts Ellis Manu Washbrook Subs Tuimavave Bowden Pritchard Green/Thompson

I was simply saying it depends what Radford sees as "the future", Yeaman deserves credit for his improvement I agree.

Whilst I've not been Yeaman's biggest fan, the left centre spot must be his on form. The continued pressure for places should keep everyone on their toes and this is the perfect example. Tuimavave on the bench acknowledges his value to the side. It puts pressure on Yeaman to keep his place and on Tuimavave when he gets his chance.
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the (Dark) Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
Should be a comfortable win if we turn up in the right frame of mind and hudds continue with the form they've shown so far this season but you just know that one (or both) of those won't happen. It never does when we're involved

I think after three games in eight days its time to freshen things up a little. Washbrook should come back in and if possible spell Houghton to give him a rest. Id also bring Pryce in too as i dont rate Tuimavave. The rest should be pretty much the same

I'm no great fan of Yeamo. I didn't want him to get another contract, but on current form you cannot drop him.
Well he gets another week at least Looks like the being the same team that won at Saints minus Mini.probably see Chris Green back on the bench. Cant see Talanoa back in the team this week at the expense of either Michaels or Naughton

Depends on how much the last few games have taken out of players, on form you wouldn't change much I agree, as has been said, we need to be wary of a Huddersfield side desperate for a win.
