Against Rovers last year we were on fire. Against Salford this year we looked disjointed, ineffective in attack and not ready for the start of the regular season.

Thinking positive I'm looking forward to seeing what Connor can do at 6

For what it is worth, I thought it was a good game in poor conditions.
For the Hull crowd to be so big on a day like that speaks volumes. Good for you guys (and for our bank balance )

I do think the Kelly/Ashurst tackle was significant to us, but that is how it goes. We had our chances to win and didn't quite take them but most will come away happy that we were disappointed to lose, when we could have been getting a tonking in other seasons.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

would be nice but he could also put carlos to 6 and fonua to centre, bringing in michaels as per last season

Agree with Dave K, the positive thing is that Connor will be given an opportunity in his favoured position. He'll be chomping at the bit to do well.
Also means least disruption to the side, and gives him 10 days to acclimatise to the role in training.

Interesting that Wilf, did you watch the game live as the reports in the Hull daily mail were critical of Litten's defensive efforts.
