If you mean Frank, dropped, not sure how true it is, but comes from someone who works and sponsors the club (same person)

Sounds a bit dodgy and very unprofessional, "if manu and ellis are fit, frank wont be playing" is that what your source is saying radford as shared with sponsors etc

He isn't just a sponsor, he is involved in match day and training.

Think the plan was to drop Frank, but might not happen if a couple are injured, seems pretty straight forward to me.

Guess we will have to wait and see, might not be true, I personally think it would be a mistake to drop Frank, but I don't see him in training.

It's not that bloke who stands around the touch line with the head phones on, talking to himself haha because them head phones are hooked up to fooook all, big sponsors sweetener to make him feel important haha

If true would be a tad unfair IMO. He clearly isn't being used correctly and on the odd occasion when we HAVE used him out wide he's been very good.

No chance Radford will drop Pritchard for this game

No way is it true, as if radford would show our marquee signing such lack of respect , surely he wouldnt share it with numptys who tell anyone, even if that was his intentions

Correct but he also needs players backing him up particularly left centre if Frank is playing wide left

Why do you think radfords not played him in his normal role, seems a bit odd to be honest, even if it was for 1 of his 2 stints, would make more sense

use him as a petrol pump if your running out of gas

Nice one

I think its because we are overloaded with second rows who prefer left side position.
Both Mini and Ellis prefer this side.
What i would do is Have both Ellis and Pritchard coming off the bench,for Manu and Mini with Ellis taking the right edge position.
In my opinion Both Mini and Manu play too many minutes and Radfords interchange for these two in particular is poor.
I recent weeks our offload game has gone out of the window and to play Pritchard wide left you need a centre who is alert and can back up his offloads thats why we need Tuimavave back at left centre.
At the moment we have zero attacking threat from there.

Yeaman isnt the greatest player at backing up - but i think it is just a sign of our lack of pace. Slow players cannot react quickly enough to half breaks, or arms coming free for an offload. It is no coincidence that Shaul is typically the recipient of an offload

Ellis out broken thumb!

How the hell has he done that!

No way a broken thumb keeping the big man out

Did well driving to Manchester and back on Monday, then.

Heard the same and Fonau was having a shoulder scan

That's part of what I've been told as said earlier, also Talanoa is out and Manu doubtful.

Talanoa finished for the season

Where did you get this from?

You have a few minor injuries we have 8 out of our starting 13 out.

So what's Hull FC's likley 17 then?

Wigan have injuries? Someone should've mentioned it.

Come back at 2pm and find out
