| Quote Shirl="Shirl"Still scratching my head why we didn't go for a short kick off when we went behind.'"
We did initially, the second one was just poorly executed. Thought it strange that Cas actually went for the drop goal tbh. Their was no real value in that extra point they would have been better going for a try and letting us start our next set from our tryline.

It meant that we got the ball back. We just risked the short kick off - luckily we've been pretty good at diffusing them thus far, so I can only assume that's why we went for the drop goal.

| Quote Robbo4="Robbo4"Can't agree with that first bit at all. We restricted Cas to 3 trys and had enough ball in good areas to have scored a lot more points than we did. Blaming the defeat on Crooks having an "ok game" is scapegoating in the extreme.'"
Didn't say that.

| Gaz Ellis was your MOM by a mile and looked back to his best. Thompson also looked good when he came on.
Great support from you guys yesterday and your contribution towards a fantastic atmosphere was first class.

My mistake its just you said
Quote Errlee Berd="Errlee Berd"Those two doing 'okay' probably contributed the most to us losing yesterday.
'"
So I assumed you were saying the biggest contribution to us losing was that Crooks (and Colbon) had an okay game and therefore you were blaming the defeat on him (them). My bad.

No worries.
Plenty of things to point fingers at from yesterday and things that need improving, which is why I said 'contributed' in relation to Crooks & Colbon.

| Quote ditchley16="ditchley16"2 years after pearson promised us an half back pairing that would finally guide us around the pitch,we have an hooker at 6 and horne,who though still a decent enough player,will never be a 7.'"
We are desperate for a LONG-TERM solution to the halfback problem. Horne will never be that. We have Rankin and Miller who should have been given those jerseys from the very first friendly, or else why have them at the club?

Wasn't worth the risk imo. If we'd have won the the short kick off we would have started the set 30/40 yards out from your line, that's a far better position then starting from under our own sticks. Isn't that how you did Wigan the week before?

| Our lack of a decent halfback is becoming embarrasing.
A player like Sneyd would be ideal.
It seems the Hull FC number 7 shirt is cursed !

exactly what I said - we were in that position 7 days ago.
Darryl said after the game he thought it was the wrong option - there was enough time for 8 more tackles so it could've cost us.
We were lucky the restart got booted long for some weird reason.
May have been just an opportunist moment under a lot of pressure. Dribbling it into the in-goal with 80 seconds left is a no-brainer

| i can't understand the knocking of yeaman, him and talonoa have been outstanding defending their side this season, most of our problems are on the other side. their attacking partnership should come on after a couple more games together
