Squad numbers are always important.

OKay then to spell it out, Lee is purely a squad player although with the options we have I don't see him getting much gametime. However as we are waiting for two players to come over and with the injuries we already have to Motu, Byrne, Washy, Whiting and King then it would be wise to keep hold of Lee for a little while longer.

I just don't see a future for Lee at Hull.

Like Paul said squad numbers, if a prop was to get injured now, we could move Radford up to prop, and use Lee at LF.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club. Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you. "Rugby League is a simple game played by simple people. Rugby Union is a complex game played by wankers." L.Daley 2005:

That would depend on how Whiting is getting along.

Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.:12270.jpg



If we are talking about bench spots and Berrigan is fit I'd pick Lee in front of Houghton because he offers more options coming off the bench, coving more positions for injuries and spelling.

Interesting debate isnt it, do we want our bench players to cover in case of injuries or do we want them to bring impact like is required in the modern game most of the time.

Personally i would go for Houghton out of the 2. He gives the impact needed and should he be needed to cover other positions he can do. (or Berrigan can be moved as a last resort)

I actually would personally not play an interchange hooker as Berrigan plays 80 but thats just me. I would have a bench of Thacks, Lauaki, Manu and Burnett/G Horne if all players were fit.

Quote: PAUL M "Eh
I may be laughed at, but I wonder how he would go at full back?

If rumours with Motu and Byrne have any truth, we could get found out. I would hate to see us having to move Thorman there, because of lack of cover.

Agreed, this is an interesting debate, and one we possibly couldn't have had without the injury crisis last year. Man of our young players got more superleague and big match exposure last season than would have been the case without all the injuries. The great thing now is that the coaches and us as fans in our discussions can have informed debates about their relative merits, rather than feeling like we're going with unknown quantities. Again, bodes well for the long term future. Also agree that I wouldn't like to see Thorman at Full-back- he's performing too well in the halves.

As for the fullback role, I may live to eat my words, but I've seen a lot of Catalans in the last couple of seasons and they tend to prefer the grubber kick rather than the high ball. The full-back for Friday therefore needs to be a good sweeper and organiser.

Although his organising qualities are somewhat untried, its every rugby players job on the pitch to communicate to the line regarding postioning, when to pull or push etc, so its not as if the communicating aspect will be foreigh to him. Also, i think his ability at picking up the loose balls is very good, he has fantastic hands, and would feel more comfortable with him fielding the grubber than the high kick.

IMO, its more about maintaining a level of team performance, so 2 props and a 2nd row plus a utility player would be an ideal. I wouldn't have an out and out hooker on the bench unless there was a chance that the guy there couldn't do 80 minutes. Lee can cover hooker but he can also cover the back row and half back and probably even centre so he adds more value to the 17 shirt. For that reason the only change I'd make to your bench is Lee. On the other hand if Washbrook isn't starting he would do the same job but with bells on.
