Quote: jjb10 "Lets face it boys & girls, we might hear we were out enthused, we disrespected the game, we didn't complete our sets, they where up for it that little bit more, the season isn't won in feb. Blah, Blah, Blah. The fact is to lose to a poor Hull side and a shocking Wakey side, we are in the poop. Riddell (injury or not) is poop, Phelps has not kicked on at all, & would the real Tim Smith please stand up. We still don't have that plan B when our predictable plan A does wrong.

I don't know if we have the answers at this point in time, I am that depressed it is frightening. This poop needs sorting out & quick if we lose 2 cas next week we might be looking at a bad, bad season. We either get S. Tomkins in to see what he can do or we get someone else in because, we are not creating or finishing enough chances and why the fook can't we keep hold of the fooking ball, this is really poop, poop, poop, poop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'"



a poor hull fc team that beat an equally poor if not worse overseas filled less than average team!! icon_rolleyes.gif

Quote: RB "A few things

The Hull side is poor, Noble will say "we were out enthused", I am aware that Phelps pulled up after 20+ minutes with what looks like a hamstring, as for Smith he might have been one of our best players but he drifts in and out of the game far too much, Smiths problem is that he is 2 steps ahead of the other losers in the team.

Where there many rumours pre season? Beyond those on here not liking Noble?

We need to give him 10-15 games. It is madness to judge a coach 3 games into a season.

Yes, there seems to be no improvement from last, but I fail to see who we can appoint after 3 games who is available who would change anything, given we don't have a stand off and are a centre short of being anything like.

23 - 20 - 4 Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png



Quote: RB "A few things


Indeed, at least tonight it looked like the players cared. A bit
That's probably spot on actually. A decent side would have beaten Hull tonight, unfortunately Wigan aren't a decent side.

People are starting to judge him on far more than 15 games. They are starting to judge him on 2007, 2008 [iand [/ithe games we play this season. The fact we have played only two so far is not seen as relevant to the bigger picture of how the team plays under him which by and large is poorly.

Wakefield were short of a lot of first team regulars so I don't think is any excuse and part of the problem is how Noble is dealing with the half backs. It seem obvious to me now that it should be Smith at 7, Tomkins at 6 and TL as a 9.

If it doesn't work, it doesn't work but he would have far more support from the fans if he did that than picked the team as he has done so far. He is part of the problem.

Didn't Riddell play prop at Paramatta towards the end of last year because tbh I woudl have TL & McIllorum at 9, I wouldn't have Riddell anywhere near that poistion until he got proper fit. In fact I think aussie who only join the pre season training in Jan want a good flogging.

I agree, but that is the key word "Part". If he doesn't change things around and get Prescott/Tomkins and such involved and show the bottle to bin Phelps/Coley etc then yes, questions re his future should be asked, but this season with this squad, requires more time imo.

I agree Noble is part of the problem, not THE problem, IL also has a lot to answer for, has he got the player Nobby wanted (i'm guessing no), are Phelps, Coley, Roberts, Riddell, & Mathers really the players to take us forward. Where is Pryce & why can't we keep hold of the ball!!!
