Hopefully Carlos and McIntosh but who knows if we have picked up any injuries and there's the dreaded disciplinary as well.

| I hope BH sorts his use of the interchanges out for Thursday as Lovodua was brought on in place of Houghton far too late.

I think we needed a fresh face, and I don't think Hodgson is a total flop, there are areas where you can see he has improved us.
We have so many poor players though. When you compare our squad to the one of 5/6 years ago it's night and day. Wynne, Swift (who I actually quite like btw, but he's no Talanoa), Reynolds, McNamara, Sao, Lane, Johnstone, Fash, Brown, Evans. None of them would have been anywhere near the first choice 17 in 2016. That's not to say they are all poor players, and I know a couple of those wouldn't be involved anyway if not for injuries, but it just shows how far the squad has regressed.

Pretty sure BH said Carlos would be out a couple more weeks.

I really like the look of Lovodua. He brings an energy to the team and always looks like he can make something happen. He needs to be on the field as much as possible. Whether that's hooker, loose forward or whatever. He was wasted today.

It sounded like Fash was having a mare, and we know Johnstone doesn't offer anything, with plan A not working with Fash, why wasn't Lovodua brought on at loose forward and Houghton who was performing left on at hooker, with Johnstone spelling him if needed?
That and Vulikijapani totally omitted, I'm scratching my head. That scoreline shows we were crying our for better defence out wide with many of the trys coming down the flanks.

I'll support him for now but there are shades of Peter Gentle who was another inexperienced head coach.

In the forwards though we're missing Taylor, Ma'u and Cator so with such a thin squad we just don't have many options. That said was Bowden just not selected? Thought he was OK last week.

If Houghton cops a ban you might get your wish

Not selected for the inclusion of Johnstone.Doesnt make sense to me when you know you are going to play Evans for just 10 minutes.
Another naive error from this rookie coach

| I said earlier it would be a Hull FC thing to lose today.... meaning it would also be a Hull FC thing to go to Leeds and win on Thursday. Can't personally see it but once again, I also wouldn't be surprised if it happens.

I'm not following you? We had Sao, Satae, Evans and Brown.
Lovodua played loose forward recently and played very well, against Wakefield if I remember. I'm saying if Fash was playing poorly why was Lovodua left on the bench till the 52nd minute?
Hodgson brought on the much lesser effective Johnstone for Fash instead. I think Hodgsons got misguided loyalty to some ayers or he's for some reason just not starting with his most effective and inform team.
He could of also used Lane at loose forward and Lovodua at second row as he played against Salford, it just doesn't make sense having him on the bench or leaving him in the bench for that long.
He's a good player use him, instead of Fash or Johnstone simple.

| Quote: Dave K. "I think we will finish around 7th/8th, where I predicted at the start of the year.
No consistency, weak mentally and awful discipline.
Dumbest team in the league, can't even count how many players are in the scrum.(2nd time this year)
Rely to much on Connor, who when he has a bad game or is a bit off like today, we have no other threat.
Hodgsons decision to leave Lovodua on the bench for 50 minutes and play Johnstone is laughable, he offers absolutely nothing to the team, one of the least effective SL players I've seen, saying that Reynolds isn't far off that either.'"
still think Purtill is pulling the strings where Johnstones selection is concerned
Reynolds needs a controlling halfback with him.Personally dont rate him but he will be better with Connor in the halves
Thinks Hodgson will get the message now about moving Connor.he should now realise McNamara is not a half back
