What can be worse about planning for the future, when our track record of late is.....?

It's not rocket science... Use the time to try out future alternatives.... Drinkwater dudson and matautia dropped ( call it "rested" if you like) and replace with heyes, bullock and wrench ....it definitely won't be any worse but potentially a whole lot better ...BUT .. Give them a couple of games to get up to speed .. some of these letdowns have had about 20+ to prove they aren't up to much

he has always been a very good rugby player, but we have tried him in most positions and not really been sold on him in any apart from full back but again we looked to change his position to centre and we need.a centre ... he would be perfect if we were a championship winning team.

He was the safest we have had under a bomb at fullback in a long time. While Dufty had a good game on Sunday the bomb which led to a try was his to take NOT Marty Ashtons. Dufty bottled it.

Just reading on the Guardian website that Bullock & Dean picked up injuries in the reserves game against Leeds. Luckily Minikin was impressive over 80 minutes so should be available to help us out against Hull.

Makes you think does Dudson practice voodoo magic

Makes me think that Chambers actually had good reason for his decision making and perhaps we were too quick to condemn him.

Absolutely.

The target game bring the one most likely to get a result, Hull FC, GC wanting to get Bullock right for that, but the plan glitched.
Now it’s about wether Dudson will let us down or not in this easier fixture on paper than Leeds.

This system GC is using is exactly what Paul Cullen did to get us into our first GF play off against the odds.

The fact that he played Dudson ahead of Bullock is clouding the issue. The fact that he plays Dudson at all with his stats is the issue. There were other reserve props that should been ahead of Dudson.

I totally agree Dudson is less than ideal(!) but given Chambers knows the young players far better than anyone on here I can only conclude he has good reasons.

The majority on here concluded that we needed a Director of Rugby.

What we didn`t want was for the person appointed to be a puppet for KFP who has quietly moved into the background since this season went t1ts-up.

Chambers isn`t the Director of Rugby until next season, so lets see how it goes then.

....and there we go

You are Murray Walker and I claim my $5.

Any radio stations covering the game today?
