Are you kidding.

a solid display,although hull were awful.we played at a good pace which was good,peacock was immense as were all the forwards bar bailey who was dire. he passed the ball rather than take it up on more than a few occasions.defence was ok but going forward he was gutless

Was it me or was Donald 'bottling it' at every possible opportunity ?

It's been the story of his season so far.

He doesn't physically have the build or technique to break a tackle, and his confidence looks completely shot.

In fairness to the guy, anytime he has actually received a pass when in an attacking move, he's usually been inches away from the touchline and has had to check back inside.

Maybe a season too far in Leed's colours

Given Hall's development this season is there now not a case for swopping the wingers again?

Donald showed last season he is a quality player the swop of sides should give him the confidence he desperately needs.

You know I have been quite critical of the side this season, but you have gone beyond me.

Earlier in season we were winning games, which IMO the oppossition was much worse than Hull last night.

I thought last night was a terrific performance, were the scoreline actually flattered Hull.

You are correct on the Buderus/Diskin situation. It did not work the last time we tried it with Millard and Diskin, and it does not look right this time. IMO Diskin should not be in the squad.

I dissagree on McGuire, who was simply outstanding last night. Best performance he has put in in last couple of seasons for me. And for me it is simply that both him and Burrow play better when they are not together. I have said that for years, despite winning 3 titles with those halfbacks.

I am a critic of Donald this season, but thought the combination of him and Smith looked superb. Smith is once again proving that you can play the lad anywhere and he will excell. New position, been out for weeks, but put in a top effort.

But like you, I still think we need another forward to see help us regain that title. I was certainly dissapointed in the amount of miss tackles from Kirke last night.

Worries me too. Most seem needless for infringements at the PTB as well which is easily solved.

I would like to see that quantified.

Because from what I saw, the majority of the penalties I thought we conceeded were for offside.

That been the case, and I repeat what I have put most times this season, it is completely open to refs interpretation, which is near always inconsistent.

I can think of three separate incidents off the top of my head for stuff that happens after initial contact has been made.

Maybe its just because of the way I react to them, rather than offside which you kind of accept will happen once or twice in a game.

There were at least two for unnecessary high shots (Burgess (again) and Diskin. Two were for stripping the ball 2 on 1, One was for obstruction (Senior). That leaves 6 for other offences, I seem to remember 2 fot offside.

Like Leicester said, that maybe he reacted more to the play the ball because it annoys him. Maybe I reacted more to the offside decisions, because I felt he was only pulling that on one side.

That said, I still think the offside been pulled for was more than you said.

I think if little Rob had been on the pitch we would had 70 IMO

But credit to sinfield who had a cracker!!

I remember Diskin in the first half in Hulls "22" on a 1st tackle and someone in the second half, on our line where M Alibert gave the penalty right in front of the posts. They stood out because of the importance of their position and timing. Not as bad as Hull giving away 2 penalties for interference on the last tackle though

wtf

next game he'll probably score a hatrick and you'll be ing over him.
