The kid has apologised on twitter which is very commendable but it was not all down to him - as long as he learns - you have to put your body on the line even if you end up crocked.

Arundel apologised on twitter for his poor display. I thought he and Crookes defended well first half.

Been out a long time, give him a chance.

I will never be convinced that Arundel or Crookes should've been signed. Crooks and Lineham both have more ability in my eyes, although I thought Crookes played well tonight. Arundel was o.k for 20 minutes, and poor for 60 in my opinion. I'm sure he'll have some good games though, and I'm in no way blaming him for our loss. Hopefully the reason for signing so many squad players, is that you can drop them after a shocker and replace them.

Sounds about right to me!

Presumably you gave Lineham and Crooks a chance in a Hull shirt before forming an opinion?

I'd be more worried about that "scrum half" of yours then Arundel. 1st game in nearly a year against the champs. Absorbed a lot of pressure throughout the game.

I thought joe went pretty well for his first full game in a year and he was clearly out on his feet by the time hall brushed him aside,been one of the most honest young man he his he will be disappointed because I know that he's the ultimate pro that lives and breathes the game.

He will come good but needs help from his inside "seymore" who was shocking IMO.

I doubt Crooks or Lineham would of done any better opposite Hall & Moon + who would we play if those 2 got injured?

If that was Arundel's first competitive outing in a year... then not bad.

Think you will find must centre/wing partnerships will struggle against Leeds pairing.

You dont judge a player after 1 game - George Carmont was poor for months before finding his feet a Wigan!

Keep the faith

At times i do wonder what people want. Our right hand side D was great for 60mins against the champions. Its obvious when you've been defending your line for best part of 50mins your going to tire and drop of tackles.

1st game in a year and some people on here appear to want to bin him off already. Get a grip. It's a good job this forum wasn't around when Yeamo played his first game for us, as I recall Paul Newlove totally took the mick out of him. Give the lad time to settle into the team!
