| Sounds to me that Hull have asked us to give this Armitage guy some game time, so if he’s any good they can sign him.... or is that me being cynical

| Maybe ... but I don't really care as long as he is good.
We need 'good'.
Anything to win on Saturday.

| I've found some highlights of Armitage he looks big and strong and was at wasps recently so should be good. Wikipedia also states he has played for England.
Also in terms of the wingers I think Connor Bower was originally signed as a utility back so may be able to play there.
Assuming we play Armitage in the Centres as if memory serves Pas Dunn was a union centre who did well in the backrow until we converted him into a centre and he lost his effectiveness.

| The lad looks good on the highlights clips.
Pas Dunn took a while to get used to the one-on-one defending when he swapped from rugby union. Let's hope this promising chap can get to grips with that side of the game quickly enough.

| Poor game management all the match.
Our tries were down to the effort of one guy and a fortunate bounce.
That game whether we deserved it was down to a drop goal and we had the first easy chance ... but the kicker did not stand back a little more sensibly and it was charged down.
They regathered and went 60/70m and then showed us exactly how to take a field goal.
Gutting ... but we deserved NOTHING!.
And that is what we got.
I hate to think what the crowd will be vs the Eagles.
I wasn't gonna go anyway, but this will dissuade a few others.
We are NOT a properly organised team and there was one bloke sitting all alone in the opposite stand, a Billy-no-mates.
No prizes for guessing his identity..
Bizarre coaching!!
I ain't gonna figure until Rangi appears ... good luck Rangi.
What a shambles!
Played at the Keepmoat a probable 2 points, played away we got zero.
Any sympathy?
Thought not.

| The bookies RL assessors have suggested for many years that home advantage is worth an additional 4 to 6 points in the vast majority of games.
For me, two things have assisted Newcastle in their victory today ...
1. A neutral venue
2. Giving them a 12-point start
Playing catch up again against Thunder was like asking Lightning to strike twice!
