| Quote: A unknown superstar "Half the team needs to go.
Even players like Horne aren't performing and don't think he will until we get a proper organising SH next to him.
G. Horne
King
Radford
Thorman
Moa - Don't think he's upto it I'm afraid.
All should go. Cusacks a good solid player but with him been on quota and his age should be released also.
Tickle
Dowes
Yeaman
Thacks
Berro
Horne
aren't performing whatso ever and seem to have gone stale.
A new coaching set up needs to be brought in to freshen things up.'"
Ive not seen enough of Hull this year to name who should go and who should stay. However i wouldnt think you were far off with what you said, personally id keep Radders and get rid of Tickle due to Fitz coming next season who could take over kicking duties. Failing that Thorman could be given another year and he could goal kick too...

Radders and Thorman are ours two worst players imo who offer nothing at all.

I'd love Noble at Hull, top class coach who could do wonders with our side.

Never has been any good, he used to play against my nephew in the juniors and he was gash then.

Spot on.
Agar is quite clearly out of his depth, he was obviously the easy option for our gutless board.
As for the players, you don't turn into bad players over night (although last night had me wondering). Take Berrigan for example, a truly world class player that has been reduced to running up his own back side and shouting at his team. Yes there are players in the squad that lack quality, but isn't that the same in every SL team (Ryan Bailey FFS).
We need an Ian Millward type coach to come in and rattle some cages, but unfortunately the board won't go for that, mainly because theirs would be the first cage that's rattled.

As we are gash and dont have the players and are not performing, its is the boards fault for being gutless and easy?
I now think it was the wrong option but only as the way the team are playing. Im glad our board gave a young british coach a chance! if nothing else...

I didn't. It was a mistake which is now coming back to bite us in the ass. Let coaches prove themselves at smaller clubs. A club like Hull shouldn't be risking the appointment of an unproven coach. Same goes for our chief exec

It might just be that rather than being unprepared to employ a top coach, the board have simply made poor decisions in who they hired.
I'm pretty sure the club were quite well down the line in bringing Brian Smith back before Kear got sacked but he (as he always has) preferred an option in Aus once it came up (Newcastle).

That chance has put the club back further than sharp and kear did put together. It was a gamble which was always too much of a risk for us to take. A poor decision at a critical point in the club's history and one which may take us years to recover from
