I'd play Johnstone at 13 with a bench of Taylor satae balmforth and brown but feel after losing 2 backs last week during the game he will have a back on the bench in place of balmforth

You'd rather have Johnstone in the side ahead of Fash?



Johnstone for me shouldn't be in the 17 and would rather have Fash or Brown at 13 as they are more affective than Johnstone.



I

Fash to start with Evans



Don't see what either fash or brown bring to the team at 13 that's different if Johnstone played there

At least Fash and Brown offer go forward, I fail to see what JJ offers in attack.

Good to see Matty Laidlaw get rewarded with a spot in the 21-man squad, his rapid progression these past few months has been pretty incredible.

Balmforth is on the bench.

despite what everyone is saying

this one is another Must Win in my eyes

I think Leeds will have a similar must win objective. Narrow win for them.

Hope you're right

You have to think Hodgeson is coaching for his job and his career at this point. His selections will be on the conservative side. As fans we would forgive a youngster having a bad game. But would we forgive Hodgeson if a poor Leeds team beat us at home?

8! Players missing it's gonna be hard.

Im reasonably confident I'm right.



Hookem starts at 7 too.



No other young lads playing.

Bookies have Leeds fav. Still fancy us. But it's gonna be close.

Think that's right tbf, JJ will cover 13, Balmforth cover Danny and Hookem if not working, rest pick themselves tbh

Leeds missing similar, suspect itll be a pretty uninspiring game all round.

Most banned though aren't they

Injured/banned/useless. Its the front row that's really useless which is pivotal to Hull having the edge over leeds.

Over 50% of our starting 13 out injured, plus Mitch and Cator.



Connor

Swift

Carlos

McNamara (Reynolds)

Gale

Savelio

Ma'u.



Bet that's nearly 50% of our cap.



Glad a couple of young lads starting, it's the way to go, need a few games though to get going.

No good If we don't score, hopefully been working on a few things, need to take our chances, really can't see anything but a Leeds win.

three things you can count on



1) Johnstone will play

2) Leeds will win

3) Hodgsons post match comment i am proud of the effort but we made it difficult for ourselves

Your a positive vacuum chap arnt you. Oh by the way you left out your whipping dog Griffin.

We under strength got some young lads in. We need to get behind the Boys Army weekend to. Got my shirt ready and whilst think it will be close can see us winning. COYH

Leeds are poor up the middle. We should have some joy there.



A game between 2 desperate sides. Not really looking forward to it

has to play because we are low on numbers.Thats the only reason otherwise he would have been on the bench.

Just hope this coach doesnt move Wynne from left centre to accommodate the carthorse

4) If we win someone will use the phrase "papering over the cracks".
