For me its a no brainer, one player has the x factor, is exciting and can step into the halfs if needed, the other is not a bad player but considering his size is missing that X factor that seperates normal players from the special ones

Conner has to start from now on

Connor's a real talent, with the sort of competitive niggle we've not had in years. Needs a contract extension IMO. I like Griffin, think he's been carrying an injury most of the year though.

Connor definitely, quickly becoming one of my favourite players.

Depends what you want vs the team you play..both bring different things
Barring Shaul who's long rangers and nature of being a full back give him big numbers Griffin is our number 1 metre man. Averages over 9 a carry. With a quick play the benefit to houghton shaul etc is massive. In some games youll want that. Vs a team like Cas I'd like Connors smarts. But I could understand Griffin playing vs Leeds. Horses for courses etc
I'll be happy however Radders goes. Not a bad position to be in

Connor, very tidy and intelligent player who is ultra competitive. Potential game breaker and another player that makes opposing defences have to think a bit more, him and Kelly down the right channel look very slick.

Balance of team is so much better with Connor in the centre.

Griffin runs strong and makes good yards but so does most of the rest of the team.

Connor has creativity, something that remains our weakest point.

Connor for me as well, we have plenty of big blokes to do what Griffin can do, though I do think Griffin has improved loads this season.

That's how I see it. Connor is the sort of player all sides need. Aside from his undoubted talent he is a bit of a wind-up merchant. There were some hilariously angry tweets about him last night from supporters of other clubs.

I like Griffin and I think he's has a role to play at Hull but we are lucky as it stands to have a fit squad so for me it has to be an unchanged XVII next weekend. who knows at some point we might see Connor and Griffin as a centre/wing partnership.

I think Connor needs to cut back on his winding up of the opposition, or one day it'll get him into real bother.

Got to be Connor and I quite like Griffin, but he has the X factor and is a better defender, I'm not sure Griffin would have scored those try's Connor did last night.

Hopefully his performance has played his way into the 13, as he is wasted on the bench.

Griffin a good back up for the backs though,don't see a place for him on the bench either, lasts nights bench is our strongest IMO.

I've never noticed him doing anything to wind people up but he obviously does. I spoke to him recently and asked him what he'd said to wind Burrow up the other week. He said he didn't know, he said there'd been a few words earlier in the game and he just lost it when he'd laughed at him as he handed him off.

I'm all for it personally as long as it doesn't affect his own game.

I think it depends on what to expect from the opposition. If its an up the middle tough forward battle then I think Griffin would get the nod.

If its expected to be an open game (like it would be against Cas) then Conner all day long

I know we've got options in the back row but I wonder whether Griff' would make a decent second row ? Brett Delaney of Leeds springs to mind; signed as a centre, ended up in the back row.
