Quote: carl_spackler "The thing is, you shouldn't need to sign players to back the runner up. It's one of the simplest things you could ever be asked to do to just run after the man with the ball. FFS, it's the natural instinct at a child's age, that's why most early kids' games you see are mainly a bunched mob moving around the pitch. Not backing up is down to laziness, poor fitness, or being just plain dumb. ANY player should be capable of running, even Forrest Gump grasped the concept.'"

Haha what a great post, for so many wrong reasons, don't you think every hb in super league would be regarded as a world class support player if it was so simple, it's people like you who moan on here that we havn't had a organiser for years and lack leadership, and then in the next breath want our organisers chasing every prop with every carry, don't you think the hb, so are setting up the next 2 or 3 plays? It's not kids rugby it takes some thought to break down top class opposition defences and support play takes some skill and initiative, think you prove that coaches are up against it pleasing us hull fans

Your post might have a remote semblance of a point if I'd specified halfbacks as you seem to be. In point of fact, the very reason I disagreed with you previously about Myler was because I specifically said that I want more from a halfback than just support play. My point is that any and every player should be sufficiently able to read his own team's play and follow the ball, regardless of position. You should not need to dedicate a player, particularly one in so pivotal a position, to providing such a basic skill that should be drilled into your entire team. Watch Warrington, Myler is far from the only player who does it for them. He's a luxury player, we have much bigger needs at present, top of the list being a proper halfback and not some glorified poacher.

Seems to me that in the modern game it's more the full back who offers the first support role whereas maybe 25/30 years ago it might have been more the halves (particularly the SO). Shaun Briscoe was good at it early in his career when he had decent pace he used to position himself early in the plays with a view to getting on the end of half breaks. It's really the job of all players to push on around the ball carrier though and I often think our centres are slow at supporting half breaks wider out. Have to say Tommy Briscoe certainly played a bit in his namesake's role for that short period on Monday. He scored one and on another day might have received the ball in a gap a couple of other times.

Sorry forgot to mention fb are good supporting option, my point was, like 99 % of the people on these forums including myself, your totally clueless about what it takes to coach a superleague team, as proven by your earlier comments. I'm not saying myler is the answer, just saying if is he a option, the likes of watts and lynch would love knowing when they do make a half break, a myler like player will be on there shoulder, a myler, brough partnership would do me

d040.gif with the options out there, if we ended up with them 2 you would't be happy? On your seriously calling me clueless? I suppose your looking for the thurston, Marshall pairing with slater supporting, honestly what do you expect, I'm guessing your the same person as Carl spankler?

I personally think we'll have a half-back pairing of Chase & Holdsworth next season. I for one would be delighted with it!

They are, and I just happened to disagree with yours. I really don't see why you've taken the huff so much unless you happen to actually [ibe[/i Richie Myler. At no point have I been rude or insulting to you, you were the one who stooped to petty name-calling, at which point debate is at an end so I did not pursue it any further.

I think you'll find if you look through the last few posts , other people starting using terms such as idiot etc! Because they was made to look a little stupid by there own comments, I can't help it if I put them right and then they can't handle it, a little insult now and then does't hurt anyone, standee is still a bell end, I was a little harsh on Carl
