Without inside knowledge from our club, and just on the reaction of Jordon Abdul reactions on the field, and Radders stating he had a possible broken leg/ankle, unfortunately we have probably lost him for the season, speedy recovery Jordon.
Kelly seems to have an ongoing knee/hamstring problem, which in an ideal world we could leave him to rest, and recover, hope he’s back ASAP.
Jamie apparently had a family bereavement, and Sneyd was ill. So hoping both are ready for our next game.
Connor/ Carlos can cover for AK. And possibly Maloudi in the halves, he’s definitely quick enough.
We have injuries, but we also have a good squad, and don’t think we will need to dip into the loan/transfer market for half backs, and as an aside I saw a young kid scrum half who looked lightning fast either in the academy or City of Hull team, not sure of his name or which team it was just a clip I saw on Facebook.

Abdulls is 100 percent a break , think it’s his ankle but not sure , I think personally although we won’t have our preferred choice at 6 we have enough quality in the squad to cover for a period of time .conner , Carlos if need be , is anyone ready for a call in the academy?

Perhaps, but they had some monster forwards to play off the back of. I feel our halves have to be a bit more creative given our pack is weaker then it was in 2016.

Indeed. Maybe you can make some suggestions of quality, fed trained halfs who would improve our squad, are available and who we could fit under the salary cap

True , but our pack was awesome. This year it is average.
