I think hull will be very tough this year. They have good huge pack and if they can keep thst pack fit, they will have good go foward and hard to stop. I think they lack a good coach imo

You could do worse than play Turner and Dawson on the wing

Big pack but also very mobile
Very young set of pacey backs for first match,average age 22.
Think Hull will come in under the radar even with Radford as the coach

Dont underrate Lee Radford, he's built the club up in all areas in his last 2 years. Only now are we beginning to see his side come together. He always comes across very well for me. Players love his honesty, no favourites, says it how it is. He was a rooky 2 years ago, I think he's about to lose that tag.

As with Cunningham its never easy and quite rare for a rooky coach to hit the ground running. But he did well for you in the final analysis and this year he can only get better.

Over on our forum there are still a number who wanted a proven coach, rather than a Super League rooky and they're still finding it hard to accept Lee. But the majority are with him now i believe, the team is definitely with him and we've all got our fingers crossed there at last will be some good times returning.

If we can compete consistently throughout each game for once, well be in the shake up this year.
I don't think Frank the Tank will be letting anyone clock off early.

I like Radford and I like his honesty but I question if he is smart enough .

There's still a big question mark over Radford, but he does appear to learn and to change things if they're not right.

2015 was a weird year for us. We had a pretty decent defence, bar a couple of halves of rugby where we went to sleep. With the ball we were pretty good too;
- 2nd for Tackle Busts (Leeds 1st)
- 2nd for Meters (Leeds 1st)
- 3rd for Average Gain (Wolves 1st, Saints 2nd)
- 3rd for Clean Breaks (Leeds 1st, Wigan 2nd)
- 4th for Offloads (Leeds 1st, Catalans 2nd, Wigan 3rd)

The problem for us last year wasn't getting into the oppositions 20, it was converting that pressure into tries. We're going into 2016 with a settled (and fit) halfback partnership for the first time in years, Houghton is at the top of his game, Shaul at fullback instead of Rankin which should play to Shaul's supporting game running off Pritchard etc, and two centres in Logan & Tuimavave with skill and guile (instead of Yeaman and Sa who had none of that).

Hopefully, that'll bode well for a decent season. We're just hoping for some decent rugby and to be in the mix for a top four spot up until the final rounds.
