Hall? Do you know something?

For me, Berrigan needs to have a good game that the pack and our halves can use as a platform to attack from.

Considering how poor some feel Berro has been at 9 and also considering how distictly average we are in the centres does anyone see any advantage of playing Berro in the centres and giving houghton a full game? He did play there for Australia!

Just a thought.

It's been debated and i think there would be strong merits in playing Berro centre. Agar wont do it though. Also dont think Houghton could play 80 at the right level of intensity so we'd need to work out who our 3rd hooker is.

I 've never been able to confidently predict which way a derby between Hull kr and Hull fc would go, this time is no different, both teams have had an indifferent start to the season.
I'm hoping that Rovers will finaly start to find some form and start taking their chances, one thing is for sure, if they squander the type of chances they had last week gainst Catalans, then they will come of second best.
Lets hope both sides put on a spectacle in front of the tv cameras and let the world see what the one and only true RL derby is realy made
of .

Don't think Houghton could do the full 80 and also he is not good enough to control the ptb yet. All he can do is skoot.

Thought in patches he has shown a growing maturity but patches still isn't enough.

to be fair Paul we dont get much more than that from Berro these days so cant be a loser if we are weak in the centres??

He is definately getting better bu far from the finished article, which is why I am glad we have Berro for another season.

good point, well made!

So that leave Horney to run riot

You appear to have missed the fact that it's your fans we can't sell the tickets to. Have had no problem in doing so, though, when the 'Old Faithful' think they're gonna win!

Seriously, though, well done to the genuine Hull fans who don't use the view from the south terrace as an excuse for not turning up.

If those not going were honest to themselves, they'd probably admit that, apart from the fear of losing, the compulsion to envy particularly the atmosphere we create, is too much for them.

Thats a cracker for a 2nd post, you should do stand up.

A game we routinely can't seem to get up for and often get dwarfed by Rovers in terms of intensity and composure. Rovers are in rubbish form, but they lost 7 on the bounce before tonking us 42 - 6 so I'll look past that.

Rovers 20 - 6 Hull.

(With Rovers receiving an untimely moral boost in the form of learning that Agar has had his contract renewed.)

I know we're all a bit more well off on this side of the river, but not all of us can afford portable mini TVs...

... and obviously those that can can also afford the ludicrously inflated prices that Grudge is charging us.
