The wind was so strong today that on one Oldham kick off they caught the ball direct from their kick off in their own half, now I thought it was just football that the flight of the ball is always live and in rugby it's the landing , I'd ask on our board folks but it's tumbleweed these days.

irrc a game we played a couple of seasons ago, cant remember the oppostion, the wind was so strong that when we kicked off from a restart, the ball went past the 10m but the wind held it up and we regathered, the ball doesnt have to land just as long as it passes the 10m mark

Thanks no6 cleared it up, thought it must be the case as it happened twice, just the refs at this level craaaaaazzzzyy

Should have been MOM today scored a good try and is like having another forward needs to work on his kicking though

Played well yesterday, interesting to hear Tim Sheen's appraisal of him that he has a good running game and has lot of 13 in his game. I wonder if he see's that as his eventual position? I know its something a few Hull fans have debated in the past.

I think he would be best suited as a 13, but Radford (And most teams to be fair), dont like to play a ball playing 13,

If we had a ball playing LF, it would take the pressure off Shaul and allow him to play his natural game

1:Shaul
6:Kelly
7:Sneyd
13:Abdul

He would have to improve his fitness (Which he seems have done this year) and his defence to play that role though.

I have major doubts he will be at Hull next year.

He won't play for us again . We should have kept him here .

I think its the right decision to let him go out on loan, as I don't think he would have got much game time this year at Hull, I'm not sure that Hull will want him back and if he will want to come back if he isn't likely to get gametime in 2018.

I think alot will depend on if Rovers get promoted or not.

There's no guarantee Kelly will be here next year.

The post match interview with TS went into this a bit as he was discussing how we have been playing Addy there who is a good ball player but lacks a bit of go forward and yesterday we went with Donaldson who has go forward but needs better ball playing skills. Sheen's certainly seemed to be an advocate of a ball playing 13.

Quite right. In any case if Abdul improves this year with the experience he's getting it wouldn't be a great idea to let a home grown player leave. Even if Kelly stays there is no reason why a spot couldn't be found for Abdul if his form justified it.

IMO I think he will be here next year. Looks like a good move by hull to let him.get good game time under his belt. Would have thought if we didn't want him just let him go this year.
