Lets hope this is not the team to take the field at HKR If we cant get Albo on the field even if its just to kick, pass and run then surely we need Miloudi on the field either as a 6 or on the wing. Jesus the thought of a Griffin /Dawson combo. The one thing for sure is there will be four forwards on the bench which i think will be Thompson,Levy,Paea,and Griffin/Lane Fash for me is way down the list and behind Jack Brown on pre season performance I think Logan or Cam Scott will get the other centre spot All gone quiet on Ratu.I wonder if we are in for a surprise selection on the left wing.At least that would release Miloudi to play 6 if we dont risk Albo

Would you as fans REALLY want to risk Kelly? As Sheens said last night the season aint won on game one? Are are you and your coach that desperate not to lose?

Rather a strange last sentence, I wonder how many appeals really are "frivolous"?
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

I guess its referring to cases where teams appeal for the hell of it despite not having a leg to stand on and it's a waste of everyone's time. Makes a mockery of the system.
They obviously feel that we had a case, but that it wasn't enough to overturn.

It's a good question tbf.
When you look at the bigger picture, no, nothing is won in February and ideally we wouldn't want to risk him unless he is 100% (or very close to it). Him being ruled out for a couple of months would be terrible for us. But don't underestimate the importance of a win for Hull. An 11 game losing streak, fan morale pretty much rock bottom, a coach who despite what he says must feel under pressure. People might not want to admit it but this is a hugely important match for us. If Connor hadn't been an idiot then it wouldn't really matter, we would have an able replacement, but we really need a spark from somewhere. Connor is back next week, so even if it's a case of him playing through the pain and then getting a couple of weeks off, maybe it is worth it?

I get the 11 game losing streak thing with the fans.....But thats just Banter as we have both suffered that over the years lol.....But I really dont get Jabbing players just to get a win when the Injury could get a lot worse because the player doesnt feel the pain in that 80 mins.

Also can't see Miloudi being involved (although I hope he is) and it seems that Levy has made a good impression in pre season and might be ahead of Fash. Also as I said earlier I just have a feeling Kelly might be involved. We will have a better idea by tomorrow though.
That side is assuming Paea is injured. I can’t see Levy starting ahead of Fash, he doesn’t make many mistakes and the more safe option which LR likes to go with majority of the time.
