He's just decent at SL level. I'd much prefer Smith, Green. Ratchford, Brough to name but a few. Just because we're weak at half back doesn't make Burns better than he is.

But for his ban halfway through last season,burns would have been penriths player of the season last year,which dosnt sound like somebody whose level of play had dropped. Like green and brough,but for me prefer burns and the only benefit of ratchford is he is young and will still improve.Which of your coaches was it let brough go?

You're laughing then if you think Burns is the man good luck to you. Brough went just after the Challenge Cup win but he's a much better player now than he was then.

Why are you almost as shiit as us then?

So why did burns leave the nrl then? Was he frightened or just knew he wasn't good enough? Or maybe the pull of greatfield was too much to turn down?

Nobody wanted a player who would be banned for 12 matches,which is nearly half a season in oz. Why did miller and rankin come to you,the lure of west hull ?

We aren't a regular top 4 side like adam said he was going to make you into, he's fallng a tad short wouldn't you say ?

127 nrl top grade games seem to say a little different to that,he was the difference between the teams yesterday like it or not.

Come on you time to get back in your basket !!

So on that basis, you're saying you're a one man team.

crookes was unfortunately

Super League team of month for March....6. Travis Burns

Super League team of month for April....6. Travis Burns

Super League team of the month for May....let's wait and see but it's a shoe in.

You really think nobody's like Rankin & Miller can cut it with Travis Burns?

Quite extraordinary but that is the calibre of the average Hull fan for you.

Well disappointing result and performance again. Good start to the match by us but should have turned some of that early pressure into points. Once Rovers found their groove we looked completely clueless. At 18-0 down I feared we were going to get hammered. Good comeback by us to pull it back but why did it take us being 18-0 to get some fight back into us? That fight and competitiveness should have been there all along. Similar story once Crookes was sent off as it fired us up but we should have already been fired up with it being a derby! Was always going to be difficult down to 12 men but for a while there I thought maybe, just maybe, we were going to do it.

Feka's try will live long in the memory. Absolutely brilliant the way he dragged his way over the line like that. Crookes has to go for me. A yellow and red card in his last two matches. Nothing but a liability.

I know we didn't have the ball much but Carvell and Paea go forward stats are poor, only 10 carries between them. Are they being lazy or under used.

I'd drop them both for Friday and bring back Green and Thompson.
