| Quote ="Rock God X"Yeaman's defence seems to be getting worse to me, Key. In fact, the whole left hand side defence needs tightening up considerably. Manu, Yeaman and Briscoe have slipped off far too many tackles of late and, as someone mentioned earlier, Yeaman steps out of the line far too often and doesn't make it count. He's a shadow of his former self, IMO.'"
It maybe wouldn't look like he is jumping out the line if the team moved up faster together. |

But they don't. And it does.
The team [ishould[/i move up faster, but that doesn't excuse anyone jumping out of the line, missing a tackle and leaving a big fukoff gap behind him. |

got to admit i didn't rate him for the first 5ish games but he's been really inpressive for the past couple. the work he put into the game is top notch. would like to see him get more trys and stop running from dunny half!

IMO Yeamo is missing his wing partner,what Yeamo misses Raynor usually mops up, to be fair these two work well together in defence.
Attack is another thing altogether though.  |

But if he didn't do that, he wouldn't see the ball at all. |

| Quote ="The Key"Calderwood tries much harder than Briscoe, takes the ball up more, tackles better and with more passion. He looks to do more work than Briscoe. To say that Calderwood has been poor is laughable. He has barely had a good ball and the only time he gets to chase a ball now is on the last tackle and the winger has usually dropped back anyway. The only time Calderwood ha slooked poor is when a high bomb is put up to him.
Briscoe started well, he looked strong and wanted to get involved. Now I feel he looks average in defence, doesn't look to get involved as much and is less effective. He too though has been hindered by a lack of good ball although he gets more than Calderwood. I certainly havent seen this supposed 'flair' though.
Briscoe will be a star, but I really think that he isn't criticised due to his age, whereas Calderwood is criticised because alot of people didn't like him before he came here and he is expected to be superman basically'"

Lets give him the ball in a gap and see what he can do
On Friday we used his pace once and Rich Whiting scored

| Quote ="Mild mannered Janitor"I used to be a fan of Yeaman's but there are far too many who hold a candle for his past performances of 5 years ago.
Someone laughably described him as world class on this forum not that long ago.
A player of his experiance should have more with the ball in hand than, head down and simply to plough head on into the on running tackler. He has no side step and doesn't pass the ball to his wing man when opportunity knocks.
He is robust in defence but all too often (and this is not just singling him out, King and Manu are well guilty of this), he jumps out of the defencive line only to miss a tackle resulting is a huge overlap generally resulting in us conceding a try.
On current performance should that elusive world class centre sign for us, Yeaman would be the one making way for him.'"
Very well said |

| Quote ="CHURCHILL"Thing with Calderwood is that he's a type of player that has to be used to his strengths. In time the team will learn I'm sure but till that happens he is spot balled for his errors, some of which aren't always down to Calderwood but the player giving him the ball or those leaving him stranded when defending a kick on his own line.
Put him in the clear and he's gone, hint to Horne and Thorman plus the centre inside.
 '"
We love you Whiting, we do 
I agree with using Calderwoods strengths, that's the only way he will shine |

Calderwood needs to be given a free role, roaming around the pitch, and stick to his wing in defence only. Also, where have his quick 20 metre restarts been? That's one of the benefits of having Calderwood in the side, surely?

Calderwood could be one of our better players, he has had a lot of stick becuase of a combination of we dont use him properly and because quite simply a lot of people that follow Hull are just morons.

Sorry but yeaman for me has been very dissapointing, yes we have been on the back foot for the last few weeks but in the matches we were winning he wasn't all that & lately has been average at best.
We cant drop him at the moment due to injuries but how would he react to been dropped for not putting in the performances we know he can produce?
And yes those slagging Calders off need to go to specsavers, more consistant than T.Briscoe and made far fewer mistakes.

Fair play to Calderwood for fronting up.
But how do you go back to basics from where we are? Just stand still? Maybe they did believe their own publicity but it certainly didn't result in them looking over confident or trying tp play flashy rugby. They just lack enthusiasm and make very basic mistakes eg can't catch ,can't pass ,can't kick. Week in week out. Far from over confident they've generally looked miserable this season.
Did Agar believe the hype too? If not it was his job to keep their feet on the ground. Either way the management of the playing group and their attitude and motivation is down to him and frankly he looks lost and sounds unprofessional everytime I see or hear him. can't see him impressing anyone.

indeed, they weren't exactly throwing the ball around arogantly were they
I think Calderwood has been trying recently, probably because he knows that if he fails to impress at Hull his career at a top level is over really, as everyone will have forgotten how he played for Leeds by then |

His coming across to smash Smith into the floor and force a knock-on was a great play. I never liked what I perceived to be a bad attitude when he was at other clubs but since he's been here his work rate and effort have been excellent and surprising. |

Ironically given the way the team has performed of late, Calders looks full of confidence which is great to see.
His partnership with Whiting looks promising and he really puts the effort in when it comes to defending.

Whiting has given him far more protection from kicks and they have clicked well |
