Might as well send Hookem out of loam for the season if we aren't going to play him when we have 3 halfbacks injured playing bottom of the league at home. What kind of message does it send out for young players when you choose to play a hooker who I don't think has ever started a SL game at scrum half in front of you?
If decent defence is our main criteria for picking our scrum half against bottom of the league at home, then you have to worry about our coach.
I'm still hoping the information is wrong and Johnstone is on the bench to play his main position or even as loose forward.
I'"
He's average now? Last week you said he was "terrible".

| I don’t often post on here as folk tend to want to trade insults. I would say that anyone who puts the shirt on for FC gets my support. They may not be good enough on the day but hey that’s sport.
All I want to see is effort and application
Not school boy petulance.

| If they put the shirt on they get your support - that’s great - I believe at kick off 99% of FC fans feel the same.
What happens when a player - such as Reynolds at the KR derby are clearly only there for the pay cheque ?

Moved up to average last two games, last two games have probably been his best two and was a 6/10 performance.

I hope he does, as I want us to win, however even if he has a great game, I still think what Hodgson is rumored to be doing is wrong.
If he doesn't think he is ready and surely he can't if he won't play him against bottom of league with 3 halfbacks out, instead choosing to play inexperienced hookers (in terms of playing halfback) then he may as well send him on loan for the rest of the season.

| Lovely day for it anyway. Hopefully a decent crowd and 2 points, but will be a difficult game.

I'm hoping for the same too.
Toulouse however are a top end Championship team at best as they really never strengthened their squad and lost 2 of their best players.
Even with our weakened team I would expect us to beat Toulouse and that's no disrespect to Toulouse ( they've had it tough in terms of recruitment and should have the 3 year relegation protection Catalan we're given imo).
We are an established SL team whose only downfall today will be our questionable attitude.
As we all know this is Hull FC and all we can expect from them is the unexpected.

| Would be highly arrogant to *expect* a comfortable win IMO. If we have Gale, Reynolds, Connor and McNamara unavailable plus a further 6 out they will fancy it. On their day they are a handy side, beating Saints of course and losing to a Wigan drop goal. There aren't any straightforward games in this competition - last night for example a full strength Rovers were beaten by a depleted Leeds side. I'd hope the forwards can lay a big enough platform that the decimation of our 1-7 can be overcome, but our lack of creativity is a big concern.

| I'd read a comment from Hodgson saying he wanted players to earn the shirt and he won't give out first team starts lightly, trying to create a better culture, but then this could be at the expense of youngsters gets chance, whereas he seems to prefer to use experienced players even if it's square pegs in round holes. Bit of a catch 22, I think if the young lads attitudes good and he's very professional then why deny them give them the opportunity.
Hope the rumours of Balmforth are true though, so not all negative be good to see tmwhat the kids got.
And if he feels Hookems not quite ready after a long spell out, then fair play. I'm sure we l have enough to beat Toronto.
Just need Connor taking on kicking duties who I thinks out best Inplay kicker anyway.

Connor is playing though, this is the type of game where he should stand out.

| Four hookers and six props. This isn't going to be a classic. But if we get our game plan right we should be able to grind them down, keep the score low and wait for our breaks.
