Grand final winning rugby.

Based on what Leigh are doing to Wigan, maybe we should have appointed Duffy.

As for Mr Kear, well I've had some great afternoons in the cup (my 1990 Wembley outfit brought gasps from the neighbours), I'm frequently incomprehensible and my best years are also 30 years behind me so you might as well appoint me. I'm probably more expensive than Kear though, and rightly so.

You'd be in front of Kear in my list. Biggest doubt on your appointment would be the EU blocking the movement of HBC.

Obviously very early days, but Hodgson looks to have Hull very nicely set up; still plenty of size and aggression but playing some nice football, with a freedom and ease that bodes well for them.

Watson's Huddersfield look very ponderous in comparison.

I'll not read anything into hull till at least ten games in.

They took Leeds to the cleaners in last seasons opener, and everyone went ott

Nope as Powell is actually a very good coach who can actually coach a team and motivate his players. Price couldn't run a bath let alone a professional rugby team.
