Hopefully this was the usual complacency by a team thinking they were the dogs and they will turn it on against East Hull......if not its another dismal season until we get a good coach!!!!!!!

I've been itching for the derby to come round for weeks now and now just six days away I'm now officially doing a U-turn, going to have stop giving it large at work (i.e. back to my 2008 and 2009 stance) and refrain from the bets I was planning to have with Rovers fans!!

All of a sudden we're looking down the barrel at another 5 wins / 5 loss start a-la 2009!!

Wonder what our super coach will do to motivate our team to turn over the Dobbs?????.....Scary thought!!!!!

I'll go out on a limb and say that the only team changes will be Hall for Lyne and Cusack for Moa.

thought Moa had a decent enough stint, he was the only forward not to make an error wasn't he?

i'd bring in Cusack for Dowes, who was anonymous yet again

I agree, I'm just saying what I expect to happen. Radford was our worst prop by a long way IMO, but Agar won't consider that, he'll just pick out some younger players (who aren't from Fev) to cop the fall like he always does.

Longy will come good,he is a class act(on the pitch anyway).

hasn't shown up for Hull as yet, just doesn't look to have blended in. As halfback and captain he needs to get into form pronto.

as i have said for a while, first time he does actually pass the ball its about 5 yds behind his winger...
plodder

Bit harsh on fitzgibbon by you lot. He's been your stand out player all year and has put in 7 games of exceptional rugby. He should have been rested this week, he's a great player but you must all have known he would need the odd game out to keep his energy and performance levels that high.

Think you need to cut him a bit of slack.

Time travel does exist !!

It was back to the old Hull of last year, 8 games, five wins, the only difference are that some of the wins were actually good ones.

Inconsistenceis all over the park last night, just like last year, lacking desire, urgencey,organisation and most disturbing, where were the leaders !!

Given the number of games, 'the best pre-season' with a relativley stable team to select from, i'm not seeing progression, we should be pulling things together now, but what seems to be happening is it's unravelling.

The Brafut game was iffy, even allowing for the conditions, i fear for Good Friday, i suppose it's close enough to con the players it's a home game, that could be the key, all away games play a vid on the bus of shots of Anlaby road, Walton Street, we need something to change and rappid.

Long needs to cut his hair and sort his self out !
He has offered nothing since he came back into the side. Berrigan last night looked like he couldn`t be bothered.
We had more than enough to take Salford to the cleaners last night.
Our attack looks slow and our try line defence was terrible. How did they allow Broughton in!

Rovers must be sh****g themelves more derby woe for us I`m afraid!

Berrigan just gone through the motions last 3 games .
Long think still injured not playing up to his reputation

Berrigan's performances are for me a key reason why the side is underperforming. He is slow and slack with much of his work from dummy half and not the sort of dynamic player I like to see in that position. He does not spark the team often enough and looks like someone doing the minimum for his brass. Not a patch on Swainy I'm afraid.
