Now that we have most of the first team squad available I don't understand the thinking behind Radfords selections.
As Ellis is back surely its better to play him in his second row position and move Sa back to centre which is his best position and where he is most effective.
The 13 position could have been taken by Abdull,Thompson or Whiting leaving a place on the bench for Feka.
Moving Sa back to centre would have allowed Talanoa to replace Yeaman who is at the moment a liability in the team whether its his massive 2 metre scoots,inability or reluctance to jump for a high kick or defensive lapses we have seen over the last weeks he needs to go.
Even when Naughton was injured he chose to put Whiting to centre instead of moving Sa to centre and bringing Whiting in to the second row where in my opinion he is much more effective.
Interesting to see after all the handling errors who is on the naughty step for the weekend.
No doubt Lineham and possibly Westerman will be back but Lets get Sa back in the centre with Talanoa.
We might start to see what Michaels can do with a decent centre with him.
No coincidence that the winger outside of Yeaman always gets flack a la Briscoe.

Good post but Talanoa was worse than yeaman last night. IMO

he was for dropping the ball, BUT when he did manage to hold on at least looked dangerous running at the saints line

How did the game sound to you no 1fan?

Other tahn handling errors I can't think of one area yeaman outplayed talanoa last night. His only redeeming thing in the last 3 years has been his defence and now that's gone too. Can't jump, can't pass, can't make a break and now he can't defend very well. He will no doubt get another year which will be a farce. No way is he the required standard any more

At least Yeamo could drive himself home last night

Do you really think that's funny?

Yes

Totally agree, Talanoa made some poor last night, however he still looked our biggest threat going forward and made more breaks than Yeaman has made also season.

Yeaman offers nothing, Radford for whatever reason can't see it and will continue to play Yeaman, no matter what happens.

Radford team selection still worries me, I hope he brings back Lineham and Shaul next game (I know people like Rankin, but I prefer Shaul and think he is the future, unlike Rankin who is looking to leave ASAP).

If Westy comes back I'd keep Abdul on the bench to play hooker for spell, this would be my team

Shaul
Lineham
Talanoa
Sa
Naughton/Micheals
Pryce
Sneyd
Watts
Houghton
Paea
Mini
Ellis
Westy

Abdul
Whiting
Green
Feka

What a sad individual you are not content with making derogatory petty childish remarks at every avenue you have to further carry on stalking me everywhere that I make comment... I really pity you, I'd suggest help but frankly you're well beyond it.

So, you don't agree with what the opening post states, if so why not say what your viewpoint is? I guess you can't, you just like to feel a sense of self importance in your own special way by posting gash all the time.

I'm a supporter of Hull FC, I have been since my first game in 1978, am I a No.1 fan, no, I've never stated such, my location and my schedule means that I don't get to as many games as I'd like to, that doesn't mean my opinion is any less than yours or anyone elses. That I can actually watch and/or listen to the games that I don't attend is none of your business but it actually makes your point moot.

Why not have a day off and just contribute to the forum in the normally accepted way instead of posting in such a pathetically child like fashion all the time.
