Cowling took a bang to the head, and Leaf with the obvious injury. Not sure on Hodson and Nicklas.

| I would imagine Tony Miller has got James Cunningham in mind for the half-back position.
He's a solid player and we need to be better in that area of the field defensively. It looks like a good move to me.

That might well be the thought process and to some degree I understand it but we are crying out for creativity and desperately need a flair player to compliment Wilko (especially whilst he's making his way back from another injury).
I was talking to a long-time supporter yesterday who has stopped going more because the current fare is not appealing to watch rather than the defeats. I'm sad to say I don't think he's alone.

I agree that we need to play an attractive style of rugby whenever possible. I understand why people are put off by what we've been offering this season. It's not been exciting to watch.
I don't think Danny Niklas is the answer to our problems either attack-wise or defensively. At least James Cunningham has a strong chance of curing one of the problems, with the possibility of helping solve the second problem.
Had James Cunningham not been available, I would have gone for Tom Hodson at half-back as I think we need to make more use of his pace, which in turn could bring us the creativity we are badly missing.
The Free Press website says that the new head coach is likely to be present at tomorrow's game.

| If we had Cunningham for the rest of the season I might agree, though I think his best position is hooker, but he is likely to play one game then not be available. Personally I would rather we had a settled half back pairing, who knew what to expect from each other, and the rest of the team had an idea what might happen. Constantly swapping and changing does nothing to help in my opinion. If DN is not injured, I would have rather seen him and wilko develop an understanding. But obviously I'm just a supporter, I will trust the professionals.

There is an article that the Hull Daily Mail reported on Cunningham when he returned to Hull after his season with the Bronco's. In it he speaks about playing in the halves for the Bronco's and how much it improved his game. It may well be another attempt at a short term fix but I am with you all the way about having a settled 6 and 7.

| No Wilko ... 2 hookers at half back ... No Snitch ... a winger (who wasn't in the 19) on the bench ... very strange.
