| Plus point for me that Peter Gentle knew just what to do at half time, as we never looked in danger after the break.
The right hand side of the team looked strong today, Sharp was superb yet again.
Whiting can not only play in any position, he actually plays well no matter where he is playing.
Still plenty to come (work in progress), so thats a big positive for me.

| Quote: A unknown superstar "I wondered what the Owen situation was as I was just off to siphon the python and heard alot of jeering.
I'm not a fan of Horne as most of you will already know by my posts. But Gentle must have his head in his hands when he sees Horne kicking on the 5th and last. Knowing that a player who has played for 10 years plus who is a 6 can't manage to find the ground with the ball. His long kicking game is a complete joke!
Not even once thought about replacing Sharp with a new winger tbh, Agar just didn't have the faith in him and constantly knocked his confidence.
I've said it millions of times and I'll say it again, if we're after a new centre and we should be. Look at signing a left hand centre and move Yeamo to the right. His biggest asset is his defence and use that to counter other teams attack on their left hand sides. Every team has their best attacking wing centre partnership on the left hand side.'"
Typo.
Move Yeaman to right centre, where his forte is his defence, give Turner an extended run at left centre
I'd give Ellis a shot at 6 next week, and move Horne to '1'.
IMHO,Horne's short kicking game has improved, but... his passing speed is pedestrian and predictable. his long kicking game ,well....... the least said, the better.

| Quote: Hutchie "Owen acted like a prick when he couldnt handle the banter from the FC fans, didnt look like anything was thrown from were i was stood, near enough right behind it.
As for plus points apart from usual suspects, Tony Martin again, Whiting (the swiss army knife of our team as ive seen someone describe him tonight) and Bowden looking better for each gmae he plays'" There was Karl was ,talking to a young lad on the way back to the car.He stated that beer was thrown over him .Behind us a Cas fan said a coin was thrown I ask him if that was the case why wasn't it pick up by the ref or others on the pitch at the time

| Listen i was right next to the incident and NOTHING apart from some really funny jibes were thrown at them, Owen was a cokk and thats all there is to it, the fat dude in the FC hoodie really gave him some hassle mind and he proper spat his dummy out ha ha, but only banter and some comments on "if he had done his homework ready for school " etc which really upset him

Cheers
I honesty think it would be better for the team to have him play on the other side next season if we are of course bringing in another centre. Another thing is, Yeamo has plenty of years left in him and if FC are expecting Crooks to make the break through within the next few years. Then perhaps it'd be better if he was playing on the right. Unless of course Hull do move Yeamo to the right. Sign an overseas centre in his prime who will only be here for a handful of years and hope/expect that Crooks will replace him.

Agree with this. If McKinnon is injured, we should be looking at Horne to fullback and Ellis to half back. We need his kicking game desperately. And Turner deserves his spot, he's been playing outstandingly.
Is Martin injured as well? If so, and Yeaman is fit to return, then I'd have him on the right. No-one should be able to just walk straight back into the team. Bowden played well, and is developing nicely, but I think Ogre should probably come back in for next week if fit. We don't want to rush his development and he's still got a lot to learn.

| Fwiw, at the game against Saint Helens there was a guy about 12 people down the row from me - grey hoodie, his friends were calling him Craig or Kane - that threw his pint about 3 times and kept soaking the fans below him.
edit: it didn't go anywhere near the pitch, though, obviously.

Bit of an inconsistency there, mate.
