I'd give Grix a shot until the end of the year, he's not been there long enough to have been part of the problem.

With the benefit of hindsight Andy Last must feel hard done to given the poor performance of the 2 coaches after him.

I'm completely disillusioned with Hull right now.
Smith looks now like a fish out of water, fresh out of ideas.
As Hull fans we have seen this type of performance far too often now.
The first time today I've left a game 20 minutes early. There was little or no effort from the players so I wasn't prepared to waste anymore of my time.
Houghton is not a captain and should have retired.
This is a team with zero attacking threat and no defensive line speed or desire and Smith looks powerless to change anything.
Sack him off now before too many more fans turn off and tune out.

We aren’t that lucky.

Fully agree with Grix.
And I know it wouldn't be an immediate turn around. We'd likely still take the odd bad defeat purely because the squad just isn't good enough to compete. But we might at least see some changes made to what we all believe are all glaring issues, rather than a few more months of Smith digging his heels in and sticking with a team that has such clear and obvious unbalanced.

Give Shaun Wane a blank cheque and tell him to write down whatever number he wants.

I think I may have spotted the fundemental flaw in your suggestion.

Problem is the cheque would then bounce

Needs to go, hes making absolutley baffling decisions.

Only problem is there doesnt seem to be any rugby league intelligence at the club to make an astute coaching appointment.

There seems little intelligence full stop

After reading Smiths comments in Hull Live I want him to go even more now.

"It happens".... but why the does it happen? Your job is literally to make it not happen. Never heard such blasé comments from a coach before after a complete hammering. Can anybody imagine Shaun Wane losing by 50 points and saying "it happens".

"but the start flattened them out, as did the fatigue of the matches leading up to this game over the last few weeks".... come on, it's week 5!! I get its a tough sport but how can you blame that result on fatigue when it's so early in the season. And if they are fatigued then it's entirely the coaching staffs fault for not getting them fit in pre season. No wonder Clifford made the comments he did.

"Danny is okay. His hamstring fatigues by the end of the match, and he's finding it hard to get right through"..... I dunno, perhaps stop trying to flog the guy for 80 minutes every week then??? Perhaps use the international hooker you have in the squad at, maybe, hooker??? Perhaps spell Danny with the promising youngster you have sitting waiting for his chance???

Absolute joke of an interview to be honest after such a pathetic defeat. Sounds like he has 0 passion and everything is just 'it is what it is, we go again next week, we'll be fine'.

I think he should stay.....

It's like Lanes interview earlier in the week saying they know what they've got to work on...then they go out and make the exact same mistakes again
