Yeaman has been on the whole poor and is another one living on past glories. He lacks the skill required to make opportunities for his winger and the ability to read the game and be up with play supporting when he should be. Hall and Briscoe are far better prospects but agree where said elsewhere that Hall should have the left centre berth as his own next year. Yeaman to move to the right - Briscoe is still young and should be cover for wing/centre. Let's face it he will get plenty of game time with our injury record.

Back on topic re Calderwood being dropped Agar's comments in the HDM about preferring Briscoe and Raynor to 'bring the ball out of our half strongly' against the big Catalans side says much about his negative thought processes. Instead of using kick/chase to Calderwood's wing turning their big players around time and again he opts instead for a defensive type mentality with no thought for how to threaten the opposition. That while at the same time seeing fit to drop our most enthusiastic player when he has failed to drop players for consistent failure in the past. Time for his taxi I think.

Why dont we keep ringing all the taxi firms in hull, get them to turn up at the KC for the name AGAR. Surely that would get the point across !!!!

Maybe not then !!

That's the point for me. It's the first rule of managing a sports team that you don't drop your best performing, most enthusiastic players. Only a complete idiot would do such a thing.

His support play could be better I grant you that. However I don't see all these limitations you refer to. He has never been the best at putting his winger away but neither was Senior. Senior was constantly abused by fans saying his winger would not get the ball but in recent years it has become his strength and you only have to look at the quality ball that Hall now gets and the number of tries he scores to back that up. Both Hall and Yeaman need to work on this aspect of their game imo and if the did they would both improve greatly. The fact is Hall does look to be more ambitious with the ball in hand but often his decision making lets him down. Yeaman and Hall are the best two centres we have but unless the coaches do some specific coaching I don't see the improvement coming quickly.

If Yeaman went to play at Leeds or Saints then within 12 months he would go on to be one of the best centre's in the game. Of course that is only opinion and part of me would like to see him move just to see him fulfill his potential.

There isn't a single player at Hull who has reached their potential in the last two seasons, take Berrigan, Horne, Hall, Yeaman or Raynor (yes, even Raynor) and put them at Saints or Leeds and they would be 100% better players, it's a combination of poor coaching, poor recruitment, poor retention, poor tactics, poor options.

But hey, everything we do is A grade, we're even the best at being poor in SL!

Fu(K me i have been away in the lakes all weekend (so been cut off from the www) & we have lost again 9no suprise there) but i am now reading he dropped calderwood huh whats that all about he is the only 1 of em that puts some effort in....maybe thats the problem!!! This clown gotta go....

Not good is it!!

No, but it is what the fans deserve, too many years accepting mediocrity on and off the field I am afraid.

How would people feel if calderwood leaving was so we could bring in richard owen?

Disappointed.

Spot on IMO

Owen has a bigger future in the game and can play FB and Wing so it would make sense in some ways. The thing is Calderwood has been excellent for us and it would be a shame to lose him.

Then I would say how utterly idiotic it was getting rid of our player of the year yet keeping an aging, injury prone out of form winger instead

You really are a big bag of steaming dog turds.

How you can possibly say that the fans have deserved the crap we are currently having to endure is beyond normal comprehension. By what act or omission have we earned the level of ineptitude we are now experiencing?
