Do we have what it takes to trouble them or will they be too strong for us.

Think we should be able to match them in the middle but as always you have to worry about our edge defence. With players like Manu, Lauaki and Yeaman they have a lot of strength out wide. Hopefully Long will still be recovering!

without Long they look nothing special will Cooke finally pull his finger out and click will BJ realize he’s on the pitch that would be the day

Did Yeamen pick up a knock yesterday? Manu is a player i have admired for quite some time, he's a real handfull.
Lauaki, just don't see what he offers, not seen that much of him so maybe thats unfair.

Depends who's fit to play i suppose and how JK gets then prepared for it.

we will lose , we are cack , i already have a list of scapegoats

I think the main issue with Lauaki is that he's a big strong runner who likes to hang out wide. If he targets BJ then unfortunately there's only one winner. Another problem we seem to have is we're cack at stopping the offload. With Manu and Lauaki it's possible that the offloads will kill us.

Yeaman has a suspected broken leg. Even if he hasn't broke it I doubt he'll play next week.

I think we will lose and won't turn up again. This rut has a while left IMO.

Sky will have a field day with the what's happening at Wakefield. Can't wait.

oh give it a rest mutley your so far upthe clubs backside you can just see your boots,were playing crap

[/size


no just players who are not good enough and dont even start me off with bloody Millard, Latu and BJ i could live with watching our kids get beat but these 3 take the P

We will get another tonking in my opinion. Never before have I felt this negative about our team. Even in the pearman era I had a glimmer of hope as we had players who cared for the club and we played some decent rugby. All it is now is boring rugby and a p!5s poor kick to finish the set. I'm sick if the cr ap were turning out week in week out and the only class player we have left is now on the sidelines (Morrison). We need a scrum half desperately obst will give you the odd good game there buy he is not a general and won't organise our team. We have been sold short on the brough deal and I think this lack of ambition from the club is a factor in tronc leaving. Won't be going on Friday didn't go yesterday and will only go to the next home game because I've got a season ticket. We are becoming a joke club and selling our best players and not replacing them is not going to help us lose the tag. We need a big signing to lift the fans the players and the club in general. With the way it's going can't see us getting above 11th position in the league which is a major step backwards after all the hard work of previous seasons

Bit of belief from any SL side and Hull FC are beatable at the moment, Lauaki (suspension?) and Yeaman (injury) could be out.
It's as simple as JD and John getting the boys fired up and focussed midweek. I don't want to single individuals out as I think our slump is a psychological issue from disruption but I agree about Millard, lazy.
It can't be a positive factor when Tronc, Blaymire, Millard and co are trundling it in twice a game and Hendo, Morrison and Korkidas are breaking their backs. We've seen glimpses of our props this season but Korky deserves the key to the City.

I don't buy the 'worst feeling ever' stuff - sorry - I think people's minds are playing tricks with them.

When we're sacking players; awaiting creditors meetings; having points deducted in a relegation year and having to jump through hoops with the RFL to remain in SL (well there's one that hasn't changed), plus having played 15 games without winning - then come back and make these comments, otherwise, try and keep a little context to what we're saying please.

Truth is - for 6 weeks we thought we we're in for a better season even than last - now it doesn't seem so and that's why we all feel so disappointed - but we'll get over it - individually and as a club!

I can understand where you are coming from. WeStarted so well, the Leeds home game , Saints away and Half the Hull kR game spring to mind. THe Hudds, Warrington, Wigan and Celtic games were all big disappointments, losing is one thing , not competing is another. Not sure myself re Hull yet. Cannot see when the rollercoaster begins its climb from the current slide

Think for me it is the worst feeling because, as others have said, we dont really know what we are fighting, and whos on our side, JD, Sam and Korki aside of our first team currently i dont see the passion for the club as you did during the close to relegation years, the stadium for me has taken the whole focus of what we are doing, but if that means watching dire rugby and loss after loss for 3 years its rethink time for me??

Fact... we need people through the gates to BV in this season and next.
Fact... we need to finish 8th or above also.

.....and I know it was probably necessary, but the brough deal has left a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths, in short very few people believe it could not have been sorted one way or another in the close season, not 2 months in to a new one!

I have never had a go at the club before and have defended it when others have, but at the moment im confused as to the reality, and all my instincts tell me we're skint and this is what we are stuck with.
