Given that the squad numbers are assigned before Radford can assess pre-season form I wouldn't put too much weight on them. Plenty of time for things to change before the season starts.

Don't people think Cunningham deserves a chance I'd be surprised if he had played 80 minutes of SL for Hull. The London fans were very impressed with him when he had a run of games even out of position for a lot if that.

I'm not saying he is good enough, but to write him off before he has had a chance at Hull us unfair IMO.

Like who, I don't there are many people who think Yeaman is deserving of a starting spot.

The last point was what I was getting at.

Wow......got both thanks and a pair of eyes that I use to actually watch a player and Yeaman was no worse than anyone else last season and better than some but don't let that stop you from not rating a player for a few yrs.If anyone is looking dodgy in the centres it's SA for me as he does seem injury prone.

Yeaman was bang average overall last season IMO. Which, as you say, made him better than some. I have no problem with him getting the number 4 shirt at this stage. But if we want to progress he is not the standard of centre we need, and hasn't been for a while.

What is the standard of centre...they are lacking at the moment......Watkins has been awful for England,he can't tackle a salad and you can add Wellham,Atkins and a few others to them.I haven't got a problem with him starting as it will be good to see how he goes running of Pryce.

Might be stating the obvious, but no Arundel.

Sneyd is brave , wearing the cursed Hull FC No 7 shirt !!!

Think once it was announced that he was going for a trial for RU it was clear he wouldn't feature.

im with dave k on the cunningham issue, the lad deserves a chance, did well at london in an awful team, lets see what he can do for us, didnt do too badly v leeds in the last home game last season

You mean the trial which nobody at Newcastle Falcons even knows about ?
