That's a little more dependent on individual skill. The other things are basics.


Just a bit poorer than Galea in the end. Neither of them look worth a spot on tonight's showing.

But you're happy to assume that they didn't bother or somehow missed someone?

OK.

I haven't picked up my pass yet I wonder if I could get my money back

Poor poor effort in the second half. Same old Hull just a different season.

We was alright for 50 minutes then simply collapsed. Difficult to take positives from this but id urge the club and the players to stop bleating on about how good we are as we may become decent but we arnt at present

On the plus side I thought that Crookes looked pretty good. Shame about his wing partner, mind.

ok positives.

defence kept leeds in check in first half, fatigue from sheer amount of tacking led to one or two of the late tries.

crookes was for the most part excellent, showed a lot of enthusiasm was very unlucky not to pull off a miracle save on hall's try

yeaman and briscoe kept their side pretty tight, yeaman in particular was good

mc donnell was steady

heremaia looked to change things up a bit when he came on

not much else i'm afraid

We were beaten by a far better team. They were faster, stronger, fitter, more aggressive in defence and looked like a team that has played together for years.
We, on the other hand looked like a team with 6 new signings, we were disjointed at times lacked any cohesion and lacked any real bite. Despite encouraging signs in pre-season Seymour was poor at best, Houghton was shocking and our forwards looked unfit. Ironically I thought Crookes and McDonnell were our two best players.

Too slow Too soft, Same old Fc

well from the way it looked, they decided to run with seymour and take a chance, after almost freezing him out in the later stages of last season. i'm happy to be proved wrong on this

Agree with all that

Can't disagree with any of that.


A tad harsh on our forwards. More than anything I thought they looked [ismall[/i compared to the Leeds forwards. But then we don't have a monster pack and we were missing a couple of our larger players.

Houghton had a poor game and Seymour was OK in patches but not as good as we desperately need him to be.

Beaten by a much better team (the 'World Club Champions') but hardly time to start with the 'same old Hull FC' crap.

Come back when we've played 10 games, we'll all have a much better idea then how the season is shaping up.
