Tried not to be too critical after just one game but have found it hard the last couple of days. One thing i was hoping for from Sundays game was to see some signs that we are going in the right direction, unfortunately I really didn't see to many signs of that.
It will be interesting to see how we fare against Leeds who were also below par this week. If we can up our intensity and stay focussed for the full game then we are definitely in with a shout. The fact that the KC pitch is open to the elements will benefit us more as it is no coincidence we fare better on heavier pitches and struggle as the grounds dry up.
The fact Agar has never beaten Leeds doesn't fill me with hope for friday either.

There once was a time Leeds hardly won in Hull..How times change eh.

Horne likely to miss rhino's game but Radders fit to play

Horney unlikely to play this week, Radford should play: news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 398277.stm? Saw Radders in training this morning, was having 1-to-1 conditioning with a coach but seemed to be running and doing all the drills fine.

silvrwood is the ref for Friday

according to hull daily wail, Obst hopes to train with the boys this week but " red tape" could prevent him making his debut Friday

So it could be Friday morning then ...If so his name will go in the hat to decide where he plays no doubt

Washy and Obst.....? Don't know massively the setup on Hull but wouldn't you have Dowes on the bench with Radford maybe not being 100% fit.

Lauaki/Moa/Fitz can all play prop if they need to so there is plenty of scope to change things around if the need arises.

Radford won't play. Fitz moves up to 2nd row Westerman off Washbrook lock.

well it seems as though radders is fine and not as bad as first feared and with omeley,radders,lauaki and moa theres no reason for dowes to play or we might have a situation were lauaki gets 20 mins again and obviously id have obst on the bench to rotate with houghton and could put him in the halves to see how he goes
