| I think Bowdens being given some unfair press, he was well off the pace after his injury, but I thought we saw some signs of his old form towards the back end of the season, it seemed to coincide with Last taking over, I'm sure Hodgson will get the best from him if not we have an able backup in Brown.
One of my biggest niggles was the use of our props last season, Satae and Sao played big minutes before joining us, but for some reason Satae was well underused , wasted as an impact prop in my opinion, his workrate along with Saos is huge. For this reason I'd start both as props against Huddersfield, especially with Taylor being injured recently and missing the friendly too I think he l be abit under cooked, so for me it'd be Satae and Sao to start gain some early momentum and field position, with Bowden and Taylor off the bench.

| Just listened to journo Matthew Shaw on the radio, in his view Hull FC were the stars of Round 1. ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

| Fonua seems like one of them players who struggles with fitness and isnt just there yet which is why he was almost getting used like a forward at times against Hudds - give it two or three games and he'll be on fire and back to his best imo - Faraimo is a poor mans Fonua imo

| I was happy with what Fonua did tbh. Yes he made a hash of that kick which could have easily cost us a try, but apart from that he did some good work. Did some hard yards with the ball and didn't get out of shape defensively. Not to mention his pass during that play on half time. I also saw in some stats that he was 3rd for distance covered during the game. Behind Houghton and Sneyd. So he isn't shirking. He's getting about the pitch and putting the work in which is great to see when he looked so unfit last year.
Faraimo will get a chance at some point and it's up to him to take it when it comes. But I thought both wingers performed well and I wouldn't fix it if it isn't broken.

| Fonua certianly didn't look unfit to me, also saw the stat that he was 3rd in the list for distance covered. Thought he had a solid game, definatley nothing to nit pick over after a good result.
