Dont rate Hansen at all. Never have. You can shove your stats where they dont shine cos they dont show the bigger picture.

He works hard in defence yes but offers nout else.

Err...thats EXACTLY what the stats show

Thats because they are clearly god?

Fair enough, but racism doesn't come into at all. I said 'homies' as the words stems from home-boys as in friends from back home whom Feka and Leuluai are to Hansen as they are from the area where he was born, Samoa/New Zealand.

Anyway, regardless if he's 'proven himself' at international level and how 'solid' he is...For me, isn't offering anymore then a defesive display. I'd like to see more attacking outside, attacking gaps and good hands. At the moment he is just focused on getting the ball and running direct at the defence without using his feet, brain or hands. He knows how to run angles, he has proven that in past season when attacking the trylines but if he more 20 yards away from the tryline, he's pretty ineffective.

I would keep him in the team just to see him do that every week!

You make sense, he does indeed. I would drop Coley for Mossop, he is tt scared of running the ball in, he runs sideways and softly softly into the line and then leg drives.

I would agree with this also! Regardless of how well Coley is played in his last two games it still isn't good enough.

I think Hansen will be rested against Barrow anyway for the Saints game week after.

Hansen is taking the place of other players who could shine. given them a chance is all I ask, look how giving Tomkins and Ainscough as worked out for us.

I seriously don't have a dislike for Hansen, I just look for more ideas and go forward in players.

If Mossop/Flanny or Farrell stepped in, played a blinder and offer more than Hansen we'll all credit it as a good move.

Lets give one of them a chance, whoever is playing better obviously should get the nod.

Give over. He was good on Friday and good against Salford. Ah well guess he'll always be used as a scapegoat but seriously he was good fielden and feka both played worse and coley's defence wasn't bad at all. I'd drop fielden before Coley at the moment.

Stop using him as a scapegoat. That's what we have Mathers for

In my opinion, Fielden is the one who is more at risk of being dropped, and I think it could be the kick up the backside that gets his season going. If Noble does drop him for Barrow, and possibly even Saints as well, it might make him realise that he has to do more than just put on the shirt each week to keep his place in the side, especially if he wants to be anywhere near the England squad at the end of the season.

Unfortunately we have more options to improve the back row than the front.

Feka-20min spells
Coley
Fielden
Prescott
O Carroll-Injured
Mossop? A SR pushed into prop. Not ideal to put in the front row against saints.
