The vast majority of Hull FC fans know their rugby, and most of them are loyal to a fault. These sort of comments by the coach/club are just a poor attempt at pulling the wool over our eyes and play on that loyalty, but it won't wash with me and many others.
It will be very interesting to see what sort of crowd attends the Cup game.

No skill, no brains, thats yeamoooooooo

looked to me that the officials were only interested to see if the ball was grounded correctly which it was.

I'm far from a Yeaman fan, but I can't really agree with this. He's not very tall and its not his job, he's there to provide a bit of protection for his winger. It's kind of like blaming Liam Watts for our below par kicking game.

There are plenty of deficiencies in Yeaman's game without making things up.

In this instance I think had he really busted a gut he could have taken it on the full, but it's hard to criticise because I probably would have done the same and just tried to shield it out of play. He got a stinking bounce. The real crime on that try was allowing the second kick to come in at all. At soon as Ratchford caught the first one he should have been flattened.

Yeaman's a centre, it's his job to block the path of oncoming players whilst the winger catches the ball.

The one on Sunday Yeamo should have committed to the ball and took it out, instead he stood back and relied on the bounce of the ball and paid for it.

But who cares, we won!

Amazes me how some supporters constantly bag Yeaman. Personally I think it would be better if we treated all players' contributions with equal objectivity.

Seems incredible how some are dissecting how he dealt with the difficult bounce from a kick, when any fault was marginal at worst, whilst no one mentions how one of our wingers handed Warrington two tries on a plate through appalling defence, where there was nothing debateable about it at all.

Aside from his efforts in defence, I wonder if said winger is a better character and professional than Yeaman?
