Quote: alanpdodd "Did I say that I came to that conclusion? I could argue it though particually as you are using words like "homies" which has a distict racial conataion to it, hence why I said I could argue...

Anyway, don't all players get to this stage where they are a good senior solid dependable player that do little wrong and may appear to be realxed in their position? I don't see why his racial background comes into his current attitude, becasue as you say he has fallen in with his "homies".

As it is, he has come through the accademy, proven himself at club and international level and is a solid clubv player who does little wrong and that may well be why he doesn't get dropped.'"


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.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif



Quote: odemwingie "Hanson is a quality player he does more than just tackle.

He runs some great lines and has no fear, he always puts the effort in, he is one of my favourite players as a fan.'"


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.

I know your post isn't completely serious, but you can't just add up the rankings at the bottom like that - some of the rankings were for positive things (e.g. metres gained) and some for negative things (e.g. errors). icon_eek.gif

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.

Quote: roverspie "i'd rather drop coley.
he doesn't bring anything, let alone defensive qualities!'"


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 icon_wink.gif

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.

icon_lol.gif It was tongue in cheek, a bit of a crack at all of the stat whores on here. If you look at it again though, I ranked them in order of most tries, most meters etc, and least errors/penalties etc. Of course they dont show the whole picture, but they indacate certain things icon_rolleyes.gif Stats only show what you want them to show, tbh I would still want Hansen starting against Saints

Quote: Alex BP' "I would too.'"


Its an interesting one, throwing the young lads in against Saints usually when they are expected to be out of there depth pays dividens they seem to be our better performances and the entire occasion seems to bring out the best in them, add that to the fact Hansen looks pretty lethargic all the time of late, i think i would quite like to see Mossop have a pop.

In fairness we have nothing to lose.

I do not think it will happen as it is a risk, and i am not sure Noble professionally could take that risk. While he may play well and his, Tomkins and Ainscough's enthusiasm may inspire the team it could also be costly, and lead to the lad struggling and getting exposed.

Noble can afford to lose this game and still be in a job the following day, if we are flogged i am not sure he will, which is why i have a feeling he will go with the most negative tactics he can, that may not result in victory but will not generate a bad loss.
