Seymour was crap last season and crap tonight. No wonder we tried so hard to replace him in the off season. Would rather see Horne there. Or Heremaia. Or just about anyone, in fact.

our attack looked too deep tonight when we shipped the ball wide we got caught in posession endless times we needed that inside pass but there was no runners on the positive hezza looked very good when spelling houghton who tried to do too much and just needed to give a fast play of the ball arundale looks terrible in defence and needs to be fixed up or dropped for the next game Chris green had a great spell and we looked better when OMeley came on also its very early days but thats a disapointing start

Seymour was terrible he was poor last year and even worse tonight. His passing is horrendously slow and erratic in saying that so is houghtons, our passing from 9 to 7 to 6 tonight was painful to watch it resulted in us constantly getting caught in posession. Our attacking structure was the worse ive seen it for a couple of seasons hopefully it will improve otherwise were in bother.

Did they? Galea and Westy did, but Whiting and Pitts alternated. Would have had better rotation with Ellis playing, as Green filled his boots at prop.

why do people persist in critising our half backs. We could have had sterling at 7 but no team is going to win a game when their pack is beaten. Leeds Pack out muscled us, We had little go forward so our halves had no chance

Stop talking sense mate.

Pitts started at prop, but you're right about Whiting. IMO he should have come back on earlier than he did to replace Galea as well. I really cannot fathom why Galea played the 80, and in one of the few times I've seriously questioned Gentle, I don't really see how he can justify it.

I cant fathom why he played at all tbh.

I thought DJ tried all he could in terms of organisation and kicking game, but play was generally too slow throughout. Azza showed that when he came on and injected a bit of pace, proving how valuable it is for any team. Our slow PTB is definitely an area we need more work on.

The one problem I have with that partnership is pace, we don't have any. It needs work, lots of work.

One thing I would say (yes I know it needs time) but Wigan's halves looked great apparently tonight (yes it was Salford). Extremely well drilled and knew their role well.

Why can't Gentle get ours working that quick?

Thought holdsworth offered zero though as well.

brett seynour is little short of a terrible siging for hull fc...massive wedge and little to show for it..... i stated on here when we signed the man, that he was garbage, ....binned off by 3 nrl clubs for a variety of off field incidents, culminating in a drink driving charge before he signed for fc.... total and utter waste of cap and quota space whilst he has been here....
time will tell and lets be fair, seymour wont be getting a contract extension, neither will he be wanting to leave before his deal ends..... unfortunatly thats down to the last regime handing out mega contracts to average players....
holdswort will be a good siging and from what ive seen in one game, he has more about him than seymour does....
we seem to be stuck with brett for at least this season, so unless anything happens we will again be struggling to compete against the big boys... saying that though, dont be suprised to have heremaia and holdsworth at 6 & 7 vs the bulls friday night

Seymour was gash last night,he made 4 errors in the first 15/20 mins. Let's hope there's some improvement. Galea was equally as poor,he gifted the first try and his knock on from the scrum on 60 mins turned the game. we'd regrouped after being under the kosh in the first half and were well and truly into the arm wrestle and had a great chance to pile the pressure on and he bombed it. I knew they'd score from the next set and they did and the rest could have been predicted by anyone, disappointing but we'll bounce back,eventually.

Seymoor was awful! but deserves another chance as he was so good against Rovers in the second half of the pre season freindly.
