Out of interest,why did he sign Hall just to have him sidelined?

i think hall was more of hudgells signing tbh

I honestly think most clubs of our skill level have tick boxes at the start of the season with teams they think they will win or lose or 50/50. Huddersfield having been our bogey team for the past few years will have had a big fat red cross in it and a game where we could probably play a couple of youngsters with the weeks break coming up to give the slightly injured players a few weeks to recover.

While it is a shame to lose what we have to take heart from is that we were in the game for 65mins with a real chance of winning it at certain points throughout the game. What I think hurt us was the fact Welham was playing on one leg for a lot of the game, Murrell was injured going in to the game (Which begs the question why not play Lovegrove or Cook?) and we just didn't have enough SL match fit players out there to do the job for 80mins.

As for Morgan prefering his Aussies, didn't we have 8 Hull lads in the side? Or something like that? We deffinately had 10 English players out there. I think that dismisses that comment for this game really.

So why pick MURRELL then, another one of his favourites if he wasnt fit? Newton has not had a good game IMO since he came back from injury and looks knackered. Fox didnt look the least little bit interested his attitude when he tried to chase the Hudds player was appauling he gave the chase up after 10yds. What did Netherton do not a lot. I think he should bring Watts back into the pack and start with Cook put Newton on the bench and leave Murrell out he is very poor.

We get the same old same old every week, slag off Murrell and Neth, Cooks a better player than Newton etc. whilst ignoring the facts. newton had a pretty good game and was one of our better players for a large chunk of the match. Netherton did what Netherton does, was solid, ran the ball in pretty well and stood up well in defence.
Blake Green had a shocker in the kicking dept, Dobson was average at best, dire if we're honest, so should they be now dropped.

I just don't see that Huddersfield away is a good time for youngsters to come in, they are a big, physical team and I just think he was alwYs going to be left exposed. I'm not trying to sound wise after the event but I think it was fairly clear Louis was going to be hung out to dry a bit.
I hope the damage is limited to the loss though andh asnt damaged his confidence too badly.

I can see where you are coming from, it would have been a better time for him to come in against a team below us rather than someone like Hudds (like his debut vs Quins). That said Hudds haven't been playing well and had players out too. However the injuries come when they come, unfortunate it was Hudds away. Its just a pet hate of mine when JM plays people out of position and there are players available who play there as their favoured position.
