For me he's still Hulls only real 7.

If which by the looks of things it'll be Rankin and Horne starting im not sure who will take the team around the park.

We could play miller all season and he won't "take us around the park". He isn't good enough. We should only have 1 inexperienced half back not 2 (3 if you count HTW)

A good run out and nice to see some decent performances.

Our young number 2 looked ok but how old is he - 12? lol

Also Rankin - when he gets the ball for a kick he seems to have all the time in the world to get it away. And he has a lovely step.

Need to try and get Miller out of the shell he seems to have retreated in to.

Overall - Happy.

He's not good enough already? Big call.

Anybody else feel the players were told to go out and show the fans how much it meant? Let's hope it continues to mean something for the rest of the year and we see an overall improvement in attitude.

Rankin looks like he's gonna be a star, Westerman looks to be showing a bit more enthusiasm and Mickey Paea will give us more go forward than we've had recently.

Miller seems to have plenty of critics but he threw the best pass of the day for me.

I think Radford will have him up there when the serious match selections are made.

Fairly pleased with this afternoon's efforts, we played our youngsters for a far longer period than Rovers did.

although they will deny it, rovers youngsters only came on for the start of the second half, the players celebrations were quite amusing and reading the dobbins board they quickly forgot last seasons friendly and their own players reactions after scoring!

There ok to say or post what they want did you not know that? lol

did i say the weren't!?

Wasnt having a go just saying they can put what they like.

Fairly good hit out for both sides, I'd have to disagree that your youngsters got more game time though. We played our strongest side for 20 minutes of the game which was a pretty even split in terms of performances from both sides and from that point the senior Rovers players one by one started to hit the showers. Most where showered and track suited up for the 2nd half just above the dugouts.

What a surprise.

Most of your first team played most of the first half. That is longer than 20 minutes.

to be fair, there were plenty of rovers players who put a shift in of 20 minutes max in quite a lot of games last season, so sandy was probably just getting them used to it again

Not good enough at this stage to be a starting half in a top 8 SL side. He has improvement in him but for what he's being paid we should have better

But you think we'll finish outside the top 8

fair enough, even if it is a load of tripe
